Tubi just put a tonnnn of 70s and 80s shows on streaming so I've been watching a few of them. I really want to like Scarecrow and Kang but it's just so dull ... nothing ever really happens. And when something does happen it's the last minute of the episode.
There just isn't enough in this series to like for it to be do-able. It's so dreadfully dull, I'm amazed it lasted more than one season. For example, there's a guy and a young lady as the main characters so there's an obvious opportunity for romance -- but they don't do anything with it. There's a bit of sexual tension, sure, but that's it. It never goes anywhere.
Final thing about this show ... the decision to cast gorgeous Kate Jackson as a frumpy mom is baffling. Just a few years previous she was one of the hottest young ladies on TV in Charlie's Angels. She could have had a similar role but instead they give her baggy clothes to wear and put her hair up in fuzzball. Makes no sense for someone so attractive.
5/10 tops, only good for an afternoon watch / nap.
