katikatLately, I've been watching mostly old TV shows like Hardcastle & McCormick or Scarecrow and Mrs King and Riptide last night. Awesome, awesome stuff. Back then, there didn't have to be any long arcs, characters brooding etc. It was simple fun!
And another thing that I adore - the man touching! Back then, in the 70s and early 80s, men could touch, really touch, on TV without the viewers and TPTBs going ape-shit about them behaving "like homos" *rolls eyes*
Especially in Riptide you get a lot of man-touching between Nick and Cody. And they live together. On a boat... *giddy* Okay, so I have a one-track mind but these two are like Jim and Blair from The Sentinel but in Riptide, it's not the superhero and his sidekick - not that I minded it in TS because I really adored Blair being the trouble-magnet in 90% of eps, woo! - but more the relationship of two equal, butt-kicking, handsome men. Oh, and then there's Murray of course :P
Oh, and since I managed to get my hands on some eps of Scarecrow and Mrs King - thank you, eMule - I'm enjoying that TV show too! They really really need to release this series on DVD! I would be among the first ones to buy it because Amanda rocks my socks and I adore that she solves crimes with simple common sense, one normal human being among master spies who over-think just about everything! I love characters like that and I think that's why I like Sheriff Carter from Eureka so much - he's the only guy with his common sense intact in a town full of nutjobs, really :D
