Editorial Review: Product Description: Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 08/24/2004 Starring: Robert Blake Run time: 153 minutes Amazon.com: It is a sordid fact of life that were it not for Robert Blake's newfound infamy as an accused wife murderer, Baretta, which lasted three seasons beginning in 1975, might have been relegated to late nights in TV land. But as they say in Hollywood, there's no such thing as bad publicity. So for those who do not want to invest in the Season One boxed set, here are three episodes from this offbeat cop series' first season, including the atypically gritty and brutal pilot, in which funky undercover cop Anthony Baretta goes after his girlfriend's killer, and speaks those grimly prophetic words: "If you can't do the time, don't do the crime." As these episodes testify, Baretta is more than a newly minted sick joke. The randy, rule-bending Baretta was a cop like no other on TV. And, as Tony was fond of saying, you can take that to the bank. --Donald Liebenson Average Rating:
 Rating:  - "..and that's the name of that tune".Robert Blake is "Tony Baretta", a tough detective who always gets his man on the street, and the women too. Robert Blake was in his prime in "Baretta" which aired on the ABC Network, January 17, 1975 to 1978 (80 episodes). The tv series was a re-working of another ABC tv series "TOMA" (1973-74), that starred Tony Musante, based upon the real-life detective who made special appearances on-screen from time to time. The first episode on this DVD is the test pilot episode "He'll Never ...

Tony Beretta grew-up on the wrong side of the tracks but trust him to use his streetwise antics to bring the bad guys to justice. This was my favorite police show when it was syndicated in the latter 80's. Just don't confuse this guy with Columbo. Beretta dosen't fight fair. Buy this if your into gritty street cops and keep an eye open for season 2, there's no word on it but ...

I give the FIRST SEASON DVD SET about 10 stars, because I love watching Baretta. It brings back some great memories. Truly just "one" of the best shows from the seventies. So any fan of this show would know, why waste the money. I'm not sure why the companies do this. JUST PUT OUT THE OTHER SEASONS. Then we'll be happy. Rating: - I LOVE BARETTAI watched aLL THE bARETTA SHOWS AND I just love him and still do. THis episode is one of the hottest.Only robert blake can come across as he does for I BELIEVE a little of it is part of him....he is just great!!! Browse for similar items by category:
