Back in the ’70s, Starsky & Hutch was the biggest cop duo on television. And now there are reports that Fox wants to reboot the show with two women.
Well, when David Soul, who played Kenneth Richard Hutchinson in the original series, heard about it, he had some thoughts about that.
“Every article mentions the ‘original’ actors by name,” Soul wrote. “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?”
He’s not wrong. I would watch the two 79-year-olds doing that. There is a lot of sketchy stuff that goes on at assisted living facilities, so imagine the fun they could have!
Maybe they can investigate who greenlit the Starsky & Hutch movie with Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson because that film was a crime.
