Was Detective Wojciehowicz (Wojo) Considered A Heart Throb? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Was he considered a heartthrob back in the day? Also, does anybody know if Max Gail wore a hair piece on the show?

I believe he was considered "ruggedly handsome" back in the day. He did wear a hairpiece most of the show's run (except the 1st season, where his hair was visibly thinning). The tribute to Jack Soo retrospective allowed us to see him without the toupee, where he went with his "natural look". I think he only wore the piece because of the character.

Very true. There were pictures of him in public in celebrity magazines and he never wore the toupee in public.

Thanks for the info guys

Yes to both questions. Being a "heartthrob" is probably why he was paired off with Wentworth. But to me, the real heartthrob of the show was Gregory Sierra.

What a shock! I am so surprised, Monika!

Personally I think that Dietrich was the cutest.

I knew you were going to say that!!

Steve Landesberg looks pretty much the same as he did back then, just older.

To be honest, I though Barney Miller was the most distinguished looking member of the cast.

Yeah, I never thought of Wojo as sexy myself. But then again, like you said, you were in love with Harris, Sara with Dietrich and me with Chano - so we were all distracted!!!!

You're also right that Hal Linden was the most distinguished looking, but then again, he was the boss. He was entirely believeable heading a police squad.

Oh great, so who does that leave me?
Fish?

And I was just getting over him...

I never thought any of guys at 1-2 were cute nor did I have a crush on any of them. However I do think Wojo was meant to be somewhat of a heart throb. My understanding is that he was the youngest of the detectives and he was a bachelor so if anyone in the squad was going to be a heartthrob it's Wojo.

Harris was ahead of his time. He was a metrosexual LONG before that term was coined!!

All the guys at the 1-2 were bachelors, with the exception of Barney and Fish. Kind of unusual, but it worked.
