    Forgot about this for a couple of days.

    The lead character is sort of an idiot savant (his idiocy is in the social realm and interaction more than his mental faculties and he is certainly a genius in what he does). He surrounds himself with several others who do what he does to a degree and makes use of their skills while periodically axing them. He is forced to consult with his ex wife occasionally and has made a habit of tormenting her new husband.

    There -- deliberately vague enough to weed out anyone who has not seen the show, but obvious if you have.

    Aha! I did think of Starsky And Hutch from the first hint, but I did not think you really meant a car when you said tomato.

    Striped Tomato was the nickname of Starsky's car.

    OOps. Rally was on page 39, not noticing that there is a page 40 :clap:

    No. This is a recent show. This vigilante has no feelings.

    Maybe this one is not popular enough to be known. The main character (the vigilante) works for the police.
