I was under 10 years old and beged my mom to let me stay up to watch the show. I still recall this episode over 25 years later despite not having seen it since.
Richard Lynch (Should be credited) plays a man who lost both hands due to a cab driving accident and is killing cab drivers with his mechanical hands. Starsky goes undercover as a driver to find the killer.
If I get a chance to see this one again, who knows how I'd rate it today. But I'm giving it a 10 since the images have stayed with me. Plus, I had no idea Thomas was in it, and being a Miami Vice fanatic, even more to hope for.moreless
EDIT
Episode Summary
Starsky poses as a cab driver to investigate a series of strangulation murders of cabbies, performed by a man dressed in Shakespearean costume and with superhuman strength in his artificial hand.

ADD NOTES- In the Season 3 DVD set there is a portion of the episode missing. The part where Starsky gets his head smashed into the window is not shown. Edit
- U.K. Channel Five – who's run of the series is the basis for the majority of this episode guide – skipped this episode, deeming it unsuitable for daytime broadcast. More complete details of the episode will be added to this guide if it is shown at a later date / if I get hold of a copy. Edit
