The Case of the Missing Seasons: How Many Streets Does San Francisco Have Anyway?
You've been glued to the flickering black and white TV (or maybe your fancy new color set!), enthralled by Inspector Stone and Inspector Keller cracking cases on the mean streets of San Francisco. You're ready to dive headfirst into another season of thrilling investigations, but wait a minute... how many seasons are there actually?
Here's the truth, and unlike some of those cunning criminals our heroes face, it's a pretty straightforward case:
There are five glorious seasons of Streets of San Francisco, spanning from 1972 to 1977. That's a whopping 119 episodes where you can witness justice served with a side of stunning San Franciscoscapes.
Now, before you shout "Eureka!" and settle in for a marathon, there's a slight twist in the tale. In the final season, Michael Douglas, who played the charming Inspector Keller, decided to pursue other acting endeavors (probably chasing brighter lights on the big screen). But fret not, dear viewer! The indomitable Inspector Stone, played by the legendary Karl Malden, continued his crime-fighting duties with a new partner, Inspector Dan Griffin, portrayed by Richard Hatch.
Tip: Take notes for easier recall later.
So, buckle up for five seasons of unforgettable television. Just remember, in the final season, there's a bit of a detective shuffle, but the good guys still prevail!
For the record: This isn't some conspiracy where they secretly filmed extra seasons and hid them in Alcatraz. Those five seasons are all there is, folks!
