@santocrivera: "Who loves ya, baby?" On October 24, 1973, Kojak premiered as a weekly series on CBS, and television audiences met one of the coolest detectives around. Telly Savalas played Lt. Theo Kojak, a tough, street-smart New York City detective with a bald head, a lollipop, and a way of getting things done. He had a sharp tongue, a quick wit, and a soft spot for people who needed help. The series ran for five seasons and made Savalas a household name. It's hard to believe it's been 53 years since Kojak first hit our television screens as a weekly series! Did you watch Kojak back in the day?
