At the 3:31 mark, a Boeing 747-121 commercial airliner is briefly seen leaving a gate at Honolulu International Airport. It's hard to identify, but the airliner is the Clipper Maid of the Seas (you can just barely make out the lettering on the front of the plane), which was tragically destroyed in ...

It's a shame she was in so many episodes, I'd rather have seen more of Digger Doyle.

Hell yeah! She's much easier on the eyes.

I wish it was 1980 again........sigh

I quite liked this one, it was an episode light in tone and Cassie Yates was quite pleasing to look at and vaguely interesting as a character. The switching from the actual story to Cassie's work of fiction was quite amusing and I liked that I didn't quite know where the story was going most of the ...

I was none too impressed with this episode and gave it an "average at best" rating. I know what your thinking, my oft repeated dislike of Kathleen Lloyd has just made me prejudiced against this episode, but you're wrong. The villain of the story was obvious to even a total duffer at spotting the bad...

This episode seems to be quite emotive in that so many find it too sickly sweet/sentimental and even while watching it I was groaning at a few points where it got too saccharine sweet yet you do have to have stories with contrasting tones. The child actor was no doubt talented and did his best with ...

I quite liked this one as, contrary to the consensus, I find Luther quite entertaining and non-annoying. His narrations are an effective counterpoint to TM's.

Funniest bit, when Luther disrupts Higgins' pool hustle he breaks from his Elmo Ziller impression to his trademark "Oh my god!"

I like tha actor, but not enough to want to see him reintroduce into the series they way they did. I think they should have only used Jeff Mackay in fllashback or prequel episodes. That's a good idea, it would have filled out the backstory of the main characters nicely. The flashback idea was under...

I watched this straight after Echoes of the Mind and of course the series continuity and a minor story arc(the aftermath of Diane Dupres suicide) is well served here. The only thing I have to add is that the plot mechanism for reintroducing a Mac "looking" character was rather clunky; I'd rather he ...

I've finally moved onto season 5, as has ITV4 in the UK, and saw this last week. I have to admit to feeling that 1980'sTV didn't quite have the technology to show a single person(apparently) playing a double role so well so from the beginning scene the cut aways to each of the Dupre sisters were qui...

I quite enjoyed this episode, Luther G is quite entertaining in an oafish, old school sort of way. We also get to see the Blanche he refers to earlier in the series and she is thankfully one of those non annoying female guest stars. it must be my age but I found her quite appealing and amusing and h...

I sat bolt upright when I saw the Judas Priest song book - Joy Kelly is definitely my kinda gal as I'm a big JP fan and have seen them around 10 times in concert over the last 25 years or so. Me and joy could have had some fun times; anyway after 60 or so posts I think I've finally uncovered a flub...

Marlboro, now that's just mean. So that's a few sleepless nights I have coming up.

I watched this today thinking it was a new one to me, but as it went on I gradually realised I had seen it before but I couldn't quite remember who was "the inside man" till closer to the end. Very enjoyable and a good study in how each character views themselves, Rick and Tc as tough men and higgin...

Now I shouldn't really like this episode as I'm no jazz fan and I tend not to like love-lorn main character based stories, unless their being played for comic effect, like "Tropical Madnesss" and yet it wasn't so bad. The female guest star wasn't annoying (and after a gut load of Kathleen Kennedy I...
