**SPOILERS** I'm giving it a 9, mainly because they had so many beautiful women in it. The writer of this show must have realized when they first started it, that a weak story a,d minimal acting can be forgotten by the use of incredibly good looking women. It is obvious pandering to sexual interest, and it works very well. In this case, Stu is boring the lovely Sue Ane Langdon while she tries her best to get him in the sack. He's gotta watch Richard Long, who bounces in and out of this series and others. A self pitying drunk, who should have been put in re-hab, (sanitarium, or nut ward) to dry out and then get counseling instead.
His sad tale is that he lucked out in "The Big Game", falling on and thereby retrieving a crucial fumble; saving the game for "Good Ol fill in the blank". Not hard to believe, is it? How many guys get lucky and then are rewarded further because of that luck? I can think of at least one N.F.L. quarterback who had ONE remarkable game, and then was incredibly rewarded with a fantastic contract with another team, and then another, never really playing seriously again; and yet rewarded with eight figures of good fortune. Long's framed for a deliberate murder of an innocent girl killed only for the frame. Reason? To get him out of the way. The killer is in the fast lane to the gas chamber at San Quentin, and deservedly so, indeed.
Now, Stu had been hired to bodyguard Richard Long, and if you've read any of my other reviews, you'll know that having Stu "Protect" you is usually the kiss of death. Gail Kobe plays Long's wife, and she's nice enough looking, but with the other beauty around, no wonder Long drank; maybe just to keep himself straight? I mentioned it before, and these girls were so obviously horney it is sad to see. Still....
Robert Simon plays the authoritarian "my way or the highway" father-in -law we all love to hate, and just looking at this family, you know the reality is gonna hit the fan after this crime has been put to bed.
