[Noodley]

What were their first names?

There must be others we know better by their surnames....

Hutch was Ken. I'm ashamed to say I can't remember Starskey's first name - and he was the one I fancied.

Steve?

no, Dave. Dave, for sure.

Honestly, I did remember before I looked it up.

Most detectives seem to be known only or mostly by surname. I suppose it's easier to be unique.

Dave and Ken does not have the same ring to it does it?

Bodie and Doyle were William and Ray respectively.

I'm told.

 

[Noodley]

There are loads of them: Petrocelli, Ironside, Kojak, Rockford, Steptoe...

Of course, the reverse is also true. What about Bill and Ben for starters?

Cagney & Lacy?

Rosemary & Thyme?


Haven't got a clue which was which never mind their first names.

Eric & Ernie ?
probably unique in that they are as well known by first names as by their surnames....

 

[beanzontoast]

... and Andy Pandy. Was his surname really Pandy?...

And you only know Miss Piggy and Miss Piggy with no first name but all the others (Kermit etc) are all known by their first names.

Petrocelli was one of my favourites, wonder if he's finished that house yet?
