Suspend some disbelief and enjoy. Sometimes corny, sometimes contrived but it is almost always worth an hour of your idle time. Thank god they didn't go with the first option for leading man. Whew. RJ is perfect and pairs well with the over-qualified(wiki this) SP.
That being said, SP sometimes doesn't know what to do with the physicality of some scenes but that is because they script her like a part-time hothouse flower. She should have been allowed to be tougher with a gun in her hand; a little more Emma Peel, after being involved in countless murder cases. Jeez.
Anyway, I watched as a preteen for its OG run and that is a bit like the way I do now.
Great fun.
(P. S. I am amazed that RJ and Christopher Walken were going through the Natalie Wood drowning 'case', smack dab in the middle of the HtH series run. Wow.)
score 7/10
