It's the main criticism of many people when their favorite book/series
is turned into movie(s)/TV series, that the cast does not look like they
imagined them to look when they read the book(s).

Yuck!

Not sure if I have ever read that (or seen it) but yeah David Soul would
not be my first choice for a variety of roles.

Hollywood does like to cast actors who are in a very popular show/movie,
for the recognition and audience draw, and well Starsky and Hutch was
quite popular.

By the same logic though, you should be thankful it wasn't Bob Denver.
