It may sound like a gimmick--The Greatest '70s Cop Shows is a compilation of first episodes from Starsky and Hutch, Police Woman, S.W.A.T., The Rookies, and Charlie's Angels--but this DVD anthology really opens one's eyes to the look and feel of dramatic television during the so-called Me Decade. Except for Angels, which never wavered from its self-mocking, glossy action/stiff exposition playbook, these cop-program debuts (four of them from Aaron Spelling) import much of their fluid camera movement, multiple points-of-view, and dynamic, often wordless storytelling from the era's rough-and-tumble action movies (e.g., The French Connection). Which is to say these shows may be dumb but not necessarily cheesy (except Angels' post-modern cheese). There is a lot to admire about the opening ambush in S.W.A.T.'s "The Killing Ground," the hard-boiled camaraderie of Police Woman's "The End Game," and especially the reckless physicality and ironic jokes of Starsky and Hutch's "Savage Sunday." --Tom Keogh

- Prime example of 70's police dramas
I was excited when this offering arrived in the mail. I couldn't wait to watch it. I was surprised however to find I have grown up since I last watched these shows (when they were on the very first time). Shows I loved as a youngster didn't do it for me as an adult, and shows I had to sit through as a kid because my parents liked them were the ones I enjoyed most. All that aside, this was a very well produced product. I thought the quality was very good,both picture and sound. It may not have all ... Read More

- why johnny can't read
lots of unintentional laughs to be found here . who wrote this dreck ? 50 year old tupperware moms ? spelling should be brought up for crimes against humanity . just about the only character with any truth is george stanford brown's officer from THE ROOKIES . i'd advise any prospective buyer to S.W.A.T this brick of cheese out of their shopping cart . i rejected this stuff (wholesale) at ten or so . BEWARE

- A Starsky and Hutch Fan
I love the fact that they are putting out DVD's like this I grew up with all these shows and I love all of them and seeing David Soul (Hutch from Starsky and Hutch, He is Hot !!!!) in it is a plus also !!!!! Starsky and Hutch was my favorite show as a kid and I still love watching it. It is worth the money to buy it with all 5 shows they were some of the best shows on TV in the 70's.

- 3 stars if you didn't grow up with these shows
I was a child of the 70s and remembered these shows fondly. I took them VERY seriously at the time. Now they are instant nostalgia and a hoot. I love the bland studio bars and apartments, the lack of much blood after some serious gun fights, the friendly neo-fascist cops who do their duty & then go party. These are the "first" episodes of each show but that is misleading. Most started as 2 hour movies of the week. These are the first of the on going episodes but in most cases the viewer's second ...

- Maybe!
I captioned this as maybe , because I Love everyone of these shows , and the individual programs chosen for this Collection , but having purchased this , and having watched it . It is great for those last two reason , but let me tell you were the problem lies . Copying these from whatever , or however , from the very first show on the collection you run into the problem that the sound does not match the picure . The words are heard bfore the Lips even move . Now this is regular on the Charlie's Angels ... Read More
