I must confess I have always been a fan of the type of show, the hero comes in saves the day and moves on. So my point of view may be a bit bias, however for an 80s TV show this is surprisingly character driven. Typical 80s shows were big bangs and car chases with a love interest or two in each episode. Lots of flash with little substance. While there are love interests in this show they are not in every episode and they are surprisingly mature in there nature I.e. both know they are not going to last and he will leave. Of course with any TV show one must suspend reality and be willing to accept fantasy over reality.
