There is only one reason to watch "Act of Piracy." It's not the plot, which is fairly routine, and involves Steve Austin performing his bionics in the Caribbean. He is initially tasked with placing earthquake sensors on the ocean floor. Soon his shipmates are captured by military members of a hostile, fictional island country and Steve is stranded in a sunken diving bell.
It's not the action. After a surprisingly easy escape from the bottom of the ocean Steve demonstrates his remarkable swimming skills and pretty much single-handedly demolishes the villains. And, as usual, Oscar is on hand to fret over his welfare from a safe distance.
It's not Steven McNally, a familiar character actor from many Universal adventures from the 50s. He must have worn a hairpiece back then because he is nearly stone bald here.
It's not the music which contains a jaunty main theme that eventually wears out its welcome when it is repeated to the point of insanity.
No, the only reason to watch this episode is for Lenore Kasdorf, who portrays Sharon Ellis.
Oh. My. God.
She is unbelievably gorgeous and her glorious figure is shown off to optimum advantage. I could go on and on but please, do yourself a favor and watch "Act of Piracy" just for her. How she didn't become a star is a mystery.
