Nostalgia

I have fond memories of Baretta, with one of the best TV themes ever. I watched this ages ago, and this was before a lot of water subsequenly passed under the bridge later on in Robert Blake's life. Still, this series had a lot of heart and humanity. Perhaps a reboot is necessary. I'd nominate British actor Danny Dyer to play Baretta. If Danny isn't available, then Luke Youngblood please.
