Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
David E. Peckinpah, creator of this series, was the nephew of legendary director Sam Peckinpah — the family clearly had a thing for violent masculine archetypes.
This aired during the absolute peak of 'cop who plays by his own rules' television, competing directly with Wiseguy and Hunter — no wonder nobody remembers it.
