Adam-12/YMMV

"Malloy: What do you do?
 * Anvilicious: It's a Jack Webb production.
 * And, of course, the Mark VII Limited production logo.
 * Ho Yay: Not so much between Reed and Malloy. But witness Malloy's Freak Out on Tony in "I.A.D-Blackmail". It's half Et Tu, Brute?, half Was It All a Lie.
 * Malloy, the confirmed happy bachelor, has occasional dalliances with women but dislikes being pursued by them (though it may be down to thinking this is 'improper' or some such).
 * In the episode "Vice Versa", Malloy is jumpy and nervous when Reed does the driving. Maybe Freud Was Right?
 * Well, there is the conversation in the middle of the ep: "Why don't you just relax and leave the driving to me?" "That's why I can't relax, you're doing the driving." Reed replies, "I haven't had any complaints from Jean." The Death Glare that follows is pretty epic.
 * They Just Didn't Care: Due to glare issues, the windshield was removed from the car used for the many in-car scenes, causing the spring-loaded wiper arms to park against the dashboard. No attempt was made to disguise this.
 * Unfortunate Implications: Sometimes come across straight, sometimes as subverted and blithely humorous, as in this exchange:

Ruth: I work for a firm that sells digital computers. I'm a computer programmer.

Malloy: *looks her over* Could have fooled me.

Ruth: Thank you. And you don't look like a cop, either."
