Great interview. YOu can hear how interesting and engaging Richard is to talk about cars. I am sure he gets a little tired of being asked the same questions about music and Karen. I loved the questions you asked about driving to California and all the things along the way. Richard seeing an A&W for the first time!!!! Route 66!!!! RIchard is right about the 60's and all the unique looking cars. NOwadays most of the cars look the same.
More like a variation of the 64 Dodge Polara or Plymouth Fury…..in 1965 they were still B bodies….in ‘65 the Fury and Polara became C bodies. The Dart was more a clone of the Plymouth Valiant.
Quiero tener tus fotos, desde qué empezaste y hasta ahora, yo sólo tengo las que bajo del Google que no es lo mismo que tener una foto de verdad, te amo y siempre te amaré, mi amado Starsky. Mi Paul Michael Glaser hasta siempre en mi corazón. 😊
Huggy what was your official job on the show? Huggy was the first edition of Google search! Hutch; Do you know where Belle Star is? Starsky; Do you know who knocked off the liquor store? And he had an answer for everything haha
I find that Paul, despite all his personal tragedies: the loss of his wife and children, both of whom died of AIDS, hasn't lost his sense of humor, which we found in the series. Now he's lost more than a business partner: his brother!
I recall seeing Dave Letterman on Seinfeld's comedians in cars getting coffee. they had Newman's Volvo that had been souped up with a racing car engine. it was great.
Love how Richard has such great taste in cars, and that he bought them because he liked them, whether they had “collector value” or not 🙂! I don’t think I’ve ever seen an interview before where Richard talks cars, although I did know the Ferrari Daytona Coupe (365 GTB/4) on the cover of Then and Now was actually his car 😁❤️. The story of that cover is hilarious 😂, and I’m with Richard that it was a sacrilege to (visually) cut Karen’s face in half 🤣! Something I’m surprised that neither you nor he mentioned was that the house in the background was their folks’ house, when they first moved out to California 😮!
The car was over-done, the characters were over-done and the show was over-done. We all knew that. We all knew that the S & H TV show was not reality. Not our reality anyway. It was mystery, action and adventure. And for that Paul and David and Antonio and Bernie were perfect. So was the car.
Starky is my love of life. His face for me is handsome extreme, his voice, his atitude, and left handed like me. I had a black 2010 Ford Mustang, all new design. S&H is my favorite TV serial. Greetings from 🇨🇱 Santiago Chile SouthAmerica
Same thing a ringer knocked doorbell or I put a card in the mailbox and I step back so give them room to not feel pressured yeah there’s cars everywhere and now that I’m doing limousine service I find cars and driveways and be all over in the dumps areas of LA to multimillionaires driveways not factors picked up a really nice 53 Buick today thousand bucks
I had always wanted Starskey's cardigan, many years later I was able to spin the yarn and knit it from an old knitting pattern that I was fortunate enough to find and buy, I still love it and the show from which it came
That was AWESOME love those guys to bad David wasn't there. The movie WAS AWFUL I was so excited when I heard about and I couldn't even stay for the whole thing. Thanks for sharing this.
The mustangs of that era were trash, I really doubt it would have been an option. I think Farah Fawcetts character on Charlie's Angel's drove a mustang.
Paul Michael Glaser, quiero tener tu libro en español,sufro al no tener tu libro y quiero volver a ver Starsky and Hutch, es mi razón de vivir, yo escribo poemas por amor a tí. Re amo por siempre y para siempre mi Starsky querido.
Great show! I am a CWM patron, and admire the production quality, no matter how silly it gets. Agree the Fury is "tour de force" (masterpiece). Also appreciate the original music score and am a Citroën afficionado. One of many other impressive projects is the "boogie van" paint job. Amazing design concept & execution.
You got to realize about this Gran Torino they wanted a car that would stand out Paul might disagree and wanted us an everyday car but imagine if they did done Paul's way there wouldn't be a really cool car that stands out everybody say hey that's a starsky and hutch car just like hey there's the batmobile oh hey there's airwolf or hey there's Knight riders car I would tell Paul if I could that they probably wanted a car that would stand out to say hey this car is unique like a DeLorean time machine I would also tell Paul when I was 5 years old watching his show at the very beginning that big car zooming through the alleyways streaking around corners looked really great on TV I mean it's like Smokey and the bandit that trans am starsky's car fits it's unique it's what David starsky liked
No offense, but "Really?" Good chance to get great actors from Starsky & Hutch fame, and you ask Antonio Fargas about his Huggy Bear character??? Do your research, then learn about the actors and their characters BEFORE the interview.
I read that there were four cars used in Starsky and Hutch. Also one car had painted side mirrors and the other car had silver. Unfortunately they used both cars in the same episode which is kind of interesting that editing didn’t notice that but I did
Really, John Davis and his calming voice having been around so long, for me it's like having a welcome old friend come by every week. From the 1980s and the decades that followed with all the things that went on in our daily lives as we lived them, I can say MW has always provided a half hour where I could just relax and forget my worries for a moment. When all is said and done that's not a bad legacy to leave behind.
I saw a Carpenters publicity photo of Richard and Karen standing next to a (I think) 1972 Ford Econoline van with the Carpenters logo painted on the side and "powered by Bear" painted on the driver side door. I would love to ask Richard what ever happened to it? Did A&M Records own it or him?
