"Very enjoyable first episode with the wonderfully beautiful Lindsay Wagner. Very excited to start this show as I've heard great things over the years. This first episode didn't blow me away or anything but it has definitely set a pulpy tone that's going to keep me coming back...."
💡 Did You Know?
Robert Donley portrayed Joseph "Rocky" Rockford only in the pilot. Noah Beery Jr. would pick up the role for the duration of the series. Donley's portrayal was shown to be slightly seedy, as demonstrated by allowing his son to be the victim of an attempted shakedown by his Records Clerk acquaintance.
