Finally, she bakes cinnamon bread pudding; made with toasted bread, creamy custard, and brandy-plumped raisins, and served with decadent brandy spiked caramel sauce.

The detectives take on dope dealers, muggers, and other thugs, aided by their red-and-white 1974 Ford Gran Torino and informant Huggy Bear (Antonio Fargas, SHAFT). Both bachelors’ private lives play as interweaving threads in the series’ drama.
