Striped Tomaato or Striped Tomahto?

Just five questions, thanks to a recent DVD fest.



What's with running over car bonnets (sorry, hoods)?

Could you choose between no branded clothing and plaid of the 1970s, or todays' delightful branded clothing and the retreat of plaid?

Why does Paul Michael Glaser run funny?

When choosing a car for stakeout, would you really take a - actually, no, make it the - striped tomato, and ensure you screech the tyres every time you exceed 2mph?

Why does the hood's car in the opening credit car-chase follow our heroes into the parking lot rather than escaping?

Enquiring minds want to know.

Incidentally, it's actually a lot better than remembered, except sartorially. But you'll have to excuse me, I'm about to accelerate away while casually clapping a red flashing light to the roof.
