    Creepy

    I found this to be one of the creepiest Starsky & Hutch episodes. Everybody seems creepy in this. The men are creepy. The women are creepy. It has a creepy vibe. Creepy camera angles. Just a whole lot of creepy things going on in this episode.

    It's also like a chess match, a match of wits. Hutch tries to match wits with a college professor. This college professor is very creepy, much creepier than any college professor I ever had. And he's got a creepy girlfriend. She seems totally soulless and creepy.

    At first the professor tries to badly embarrass Hutch. And it makes Hutch very uncomfortable. But Hutch comes up with a plan to try and outsmart the creepy professor. Anything more than this would spoil it so I'll stop right here. Trust me, it's creepy.

    The direction of PMG is perfect, my vote is 10 because the story is good and the music is perfect.

    This episode is perfect, too bad that glaser has not become a famous director because the episodes he directs always leave their mark.

      Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: Why is it I get the feeling she's not telling us everything she knows?

      Catlin: Well, now, if I did that, you would age before your time.
