I'm trying to think of an American show in the 80s that featured a red headed dude in a brown leather jacket. He was either a detective or a private eye and I think the theme song was Saturday In The Park but I could be wrong. It was on late at night. I've googled and nothing comes close. If you could help, most appreciated.
I have a few leads.
Wise Guy.
Spenser for Hire
Jake and the Fatman
Downton ( 1986 )
Booker (1989)
Greatest American Hero ( ???)
Omg. Thanks for this but it just came to me. It was Minder. Not even the the same country. I'm sorry.

So did I. Lol. Thank you for your help ๐
you were trying to remember via the song, not the actors/show
I'll find it. Early or late 80s? What American accent did they have? Any particular city or was it rural?
I reckon mid to late 80s early 90s. City, maybe New York or Chicago.
Cool. Imma gonna look at about 100 shows now ๐ซฅ
Thank you.
