Starsky & Hutch

Starsky & Hutch was a TV police drama focusing on a pair of detectives, with an emphasis on fast cars and shooting. The series ran from 1975 until 1979 and later inspired a 2004 film (with Ben Stiller). When the show was still new, it was mentioned multiple times in early seasons of The Muppet Show.
