Det. David Toma

Inspector Spooner

Stephen J. Cannell created a character named Rockford for a script he wrote for this series. That script was based on a story idea by his boss, Roy Huggins. That script was rejected by ABC, so it was rewritten and eventually became the pilot for the classic NBC series, The Rockford Files: Backlash of the Hunter (1974).

When Musante left the series, the real David Toma offered to take over the role. But ABC declined his request.

The producers originally wanted to titled the series "Supercop" but David Toma argued against it and convinced them to change the title.
