Kojak

Robin posted an interesting comment about the last post, signing off with "Suck on that, Kojak!" This is an interesting development in our relationship. I had assumed for years that Kojak was a sensitive subject with Robin as he was a part of the first failed pilot of the TV show as Kojak's sidekick 'Flobbin.' In fact one review of the pilot said:

"...Kojak is a tour de force Detective show completely and utterly ruined by the quirky windbag of a sidekick 'Flobbin.' Also, a very dumb name for any character, let alone a sidekick." - Jimmy Hausmon, NY Times August 12th, 1973.



Kojak's failed first pilot.

The show miraculously recovered and went on to great success, albeit without 'Flobbin.' But to my friend Robin, whom I had always assumed was sensitive about almost single-handedly ruining one of television's great cop shows, good on you for keepin perspective! Keep on fightin the good fight!
