In the context of the script, Kojak's was seen as typical squad room humor, which was picked up later in the TV drama Hill Street Blues.

Kojak was stubborn and tenacious in his investigation of crimes-and also displayed a dark, cynical wit, along with a tendency to bend the rules if it brought a criminal to justice. The show revolved around the efforts of the tough and incorruptible Lieutenant Theodopolus ('Theo') Kojak ( Telly Savalas), a bald, dapper, New York City policeman, who was fond of Tootsie Pops and of using the catchphrases, 'Who loves ya, baby?' and 'Cootchie-coo!'.

Kojak himself was a composite character, based on a number of detectives, lawyers, and reporters who were involved in the Wylie-Hoffert murder case. The film served as a pilot for the Kojak television series. Savalas starred in The Marcus-Nelson Murders as a police detective whose last name was spelled 'Kojack'. Selwyn Raab's book Justice in the Back Room provided Mann with some of his inspiration for the story of The Marcus-Nelson Murders, and the series subsequently included a credits reference to having been 'suggested by a book by Selwyn Raab'. The opening and closing titles of the film emphasized the point that it was a fictional account of the events that led to the creation of Miranda rights by the U.S. The result was a 1973 made-for-TV movie, The Marcus-Nelson Murders. Mann developed the project as a gritty police procedural, but with a subtext focusing on institutionalized prejudice and the civil rights of suspects and witnesses. After illegally obtaining a confession, the police had the suspect all but convicted until a second investigation by a different team of detectives exonerated the suspect and identified the real killer, Richard Robles, who was convicted in 1965 and sentenced to life in prison. Owing to poor and corrupt police work and the prevailing casual attitude toward suspects' civil rights, the crimes in the Wylie-Hoffert case were pinned on a young African-American man, George Whitmore Jr., who had been arrested on a separate assault charge.

Level design is rote and linear, though occasional mini-games – such as basketball with zombie heads – offer a little saving grace.Kojak is an American action crime drama television series starring Telly Savalas as the title character, New York City Police Department Detective Lieutenant Theodopolis 'Theo' Kojak. While combos are simple to remember, sluggish controls mean it's often luck rather than skill that pulls them off successfully. Chainsaw and cheerleading attacks can be blended together to take out enemies, dispatching them in showers of rainbows and sparkles. Armed with your boyfriend's sentient, decapitated head and the chainsaw of the title (lollipops are worked in as health top-ups) gameplay is a series of hack-and-slash stages set in and around San Romero high school. You play as pumped-up cheerleader Juliet Starling, bizarrely qualified to hold off a horde of the undead thanks to coming from a family of zombie hunters. As such, the game's attempts at laughably over-the-top exploitation and blunt titillation feel awkward at best – or at worst, just flatly unfunny. Blood, sex and violence – the timing for Lollipop Chainsaw's release couldn't be worse, following a controversial E3, where excessive use of those elements was firmly in the spotlight.
