Castillo Pulls a Rodriguez?

[ViceFanMan]

Currently going through the 70s crime drama Starsky and Hutch. There’s some definite tie-ins between it and MV…as Michael Mann wrote several episodes of S&H, Paul Michael Glaser & David Soul later directed episodes of MV, and the like-brothers type friendship between each show’s main stars has been compared before.

Tonight I’m watching a S&H episode from Season 2 called “The Psychic” (1977). It happens to guest star Edward James Olmos…not, only that but Michael Mann wrote this episode!  However, ‘Castillo’ doesn’t fare as well in this one…as he pulls a ‘Lou R.’ and ends up on the wrong end of a firearm.  Interesting & good episode, though!

(Sidenote: Edward James Olmos was incorrectly credited in this episode as Edward Jamesl Olmos??  Someone needed to work on their typing skills. )

I remember that one, and not just for Olmos and Mann.  I’m a credit watcher myself, but missed the spelling error.  I also remember it was filmed at the Pike in Long Beach, where I live.  So many 70’s shows filmed there like Cannon, Barnaby Jones, Columbo, Emergency, and Mannix.  Starsky and Hutch filmed a lot in neighboring San Pedro too.  This was a really good episode and Huggy Bear was great.
