Starsky and Hutch Reboot? Original Actor David Soul Says of Himself and Paul Michael Glaser: “Don’t Give Up On Us” to Network

David Soul, original star of “Starsky and Hutch,” once had a hit record called “Don’t Give Up On Us.”

Now, hearing that Fox TV is thinking of a reboot, Soul says — to paraphrase– Don’t give up on us! That’s in reference to him co-star Paul Michael Glaser.

Fox is saying in the new version Starsky and Hutch will be female undercover cops. Really? Why not just call it “Cagney and Lacey”? Fox is woke? What’s up with that?

Anyway, Soul writes on Twitter: “Every article mentions the ‘original’ actors by name. So why not just reboot Paul and me—as a couple of old farts solving piddly-ass crimes at the assisted living facility where we would now live? Who can do Starsky and Hutch better than him and me?”

Hey– why not make these ladies the daughters of the respective older guys, and have the guys as advisers?

TV will not be satisfied until every show from the 60s and 70s is rebooted in some unfamiliar way. Where is My Mother the Car? It’s time!
