New show, new fandom, first episode of a whole new series!

Great pictures. Thank you.

I was chatting with sassyinkpen, my partner in squee here, and she was telling me that someone she knows uses S&H as the way to explain slash. If the person doesn't get it she just says, "Like Starsky and Hutch" and the light dawns. :)

Great review of the pilot, I love your take on things. Although I cringe every time I see that shot of Hutch landing on the car, because I know what it did to David's back, ugh.
My favorite thing about the pilot is that from the very first time we meet them, the boys are best of friends. And it stays that way all the way through the movie cameo 30 years later.

I agree with you aobut how cool it is that they're so close from the very first moment. That checklist scene in Hutch's car really establishes that they're a smoothly functioning unit *very* well. Love that!!
