As the Kojak series winds down so obviously does the writing team. This was another episode on this disc and the end of the season where the story and the actors just phoned it in. I strongly disagree with the review that suggests this was a nice change of pace. When you have a great series and great actors, why do you want a change of pace? The backing soundtrack was the perfect cherry on top. No other way to describe it than corny. I understand they're bringing back writers and directors from the early years to handle the upcoming Kojak movies. Thank goodness!
