T.J. Hooker 1.02 Streets, The (1982) Hooker gets involved with a serial mugger when he witnesses the culprit leaving the scene of a crime. 5/10 While Hooker’s miraculous expertise here runs to intimate knowledge of a bus route, the criminal and female journalist are both unconvincing and uninteresting. That said, Shatner convinces that he can’t stand the sight of her and he gets a couple of decent chase sequences including one very well filmed run along a high wall and jump onto a bus. This T.J. Hooker episode contains threatened violence. Classified 12 by BBFC. Suitable only for persons of 12 years and over. Links Previous episode: The Protectors Next episode: God Bless the Child
