How this season is filed

Filed by Max Sterling · Streaming Confidential

77 Sunset Strip is Hollywood private-eye cool with a jazz theme and Edd Byrnes's Kookie as a comb-flicking teen idol. Efrem Zimbalist Jr. and Roger Smith handle the cases; the sidekick became the pop explosion. Warner's detective factory at peak style — parking-lot slang, Sunset neon, and a supporting haircut that outsold the plot.
