David Soul—beloved husband, father, grandfather and brother—died yesterday after a valiant battle for life in the loving company of family. He shared many extraordinary gifts in the world as actor, singer, storyteller, creative artist and dear friend. His smile, laughter and

Every article mentions the ‘original’ actors by name. So why not just reboot Paul and me—as a couple of old farts solving piddly-ass crimes at the assisted living facility where we would now live? Who can do Starsky and Hutch better than him and me?

I have never been more touched, and not because of the overflowing good wishes on what was, admittedly, a milestone birthday, coming at me from every corner of the globe (online and elsewhere), but because of the impressive list of charities so many of you donated to in my name.

Today marks 45 years since Starsky & Hutch first aired, but more importantly, it also marks the beginning of a lifelong journey with my dear, dear friend and co-conspirator, Paul Glaser. Thanks buddy! Lots of love, David.
