I started watching Kojak in the summer of 2016 and noticed how good the scripts, acting and production values were in many of the episodes. But I only decided to subject it to the usual "anal-ysis" like I did with other shows (Hawaii Five-O/Zero, The Invaders, Peter Gunn, The Streets of San Francisco, and Mission Impossible 1988-1990) as I got down to the last Kojak season I was watching. As of February 21, 2017, my second look at the five seasons is now finished.
