Truly Magnificent Show
18 January 2014
Warning: Spoilers
One, I thought I already had a review of this program posted.

Two, the episodes were all uploaded to youtube, last time I looked. Watched over them and enjoyed them again.

Yes, they are rather dated.

Did not know about the illness and loss of the female, Liana, but do recall she disappeared for several of the last episodes.

This magnificent show aired during the summer and was spellbounding, truly captivating.

Without a doubt, the best attraction for a kid was Ike Eisenmann, staple of many a after-school specials.

I had seen the pilot movie with Ian McShane as a late movie about twenty years ago. Before that, I had not seen any of these shows or programs since back when they first aired.

Did not recall Joan Collins appearance in one episode, but as I wouldn't have known who she was, no reason I would remember it.

Nevertheless, they were an intriguing group, especially with the addition of McDowell (in essence, merely resembling Jonathan Harris as Dr. Smith on Lost In Space).

But even without the female LIana, the foursome made for a pretty effective quartet, as I recall.

Once more, in rewatching the episodes on youtube, I couldn't help but notice clearly there was a 'performance' sought with Carl Franklin, recollecting some bad childhood experience or something.

Nevertheless, for that summer, this show ruled and was a masterpiece.

Not enough stars to cover it.
