Review of The Streets of San Francisco

I recently rewatched The Streets of San Francisco and was amazed at how good it was. There certainly is great chemistry between Malden and Douglas. Also the juxtaposition of seasoned veteran vs. Rookie works really well. The story writing generally has a very high standard and they tackle some really progressive issues. I find two things amazing becuase they add to the athenticity of the show: as opposed to many other shows TSOSF was actually mostly shot on location and they used direct sound, meaning it was not dubbed later. That reaklly lends a qualuity and authenticity to the show that very few had and have.
