Who loves ya, baby? Telly Savalass lollipop sucking, bald Lieutenant Theo Kojak worked Manhattan with wit and a moral code underneath the swagger. Created by Abby Mann, the Oscar winning writer of Judgment at Nuremberg, from a real case of police officers who killed suspects. Savalas won an Emmy. The lollipop was his idea, for the smoking ban.
