Primary
The series is a classic police procedural focused on the investigation and resolution of individual crimes, emphasizing the professionalism of law enforcement within the established legal system rather than promoting a specific political ideology.
The movie features traditional casting with predominantly white male leads, consistent with television productions of its era. Its narrative frames traditional identities in a neutral to positive light, focusing on crime resolution without explicit DEI themes or critiques of traditional societal roles.
Secondary
The Streets of San Francisco, particularly in episodes like 'The Glass Cage,' featured gay characters often as victims of crime or prejudice. For its 1970s broadcast, the show's portrayal was notably empathetic, consistently framing homophobia as a societal problem and critiquing discrimination rather than endorsing it, thus offering a relatively positive depiction for its time.
The show, typical of its era and genre, often portrays Christianity implicitly as a foundation for moral values or community support. While individual characters may be flawed, the narrative generally respects the role of faith in providing guidance or comfort, aligning with a subtle positive framing.
This 1970s police procedural primarily focuses on two male detectives and their investigations. Female characters typically appear as victims, witnesses, or suspects. The show does not feature scenes where female characters are depicted as victorious in close-quarters physical combat against one or more male opponents.
As an original television series from 1972, "The Streets of San Francisco" introduced its own characters without prior canonical or historical gender baselines. Therefore, no characters could have been gender-swapped from pre-existing source material.
As an original television series that premiered in 1972, "The Streets of San Francisco" introduced its characters for the first time. There is no prior source material, historical record, or previous screen installment from which characters could have been race-swapped.
