I saw the fucking TJ Hooker complete 1st and 2nd seasons on DVD at Best Buy yesterday for $49.99.

I mean, Simpsons, Seinfeld, I get it...TJ HOOKER?!! Best thing to come out of that show is one line in a Mack 10 song.

The pilot episode is one of my all time favourites. I have a VHS copy that is 20 years old and still watchable.

According to Mr. Skin, i should get "Illusions", a movie from 1992...



While attending UCLA, Heather Locklear first started modeling and work in commercials for the school store. In 1979, Locklear landed her first TV role in a TV movie and then on an episode of CHiPs a year later. She landed a few more bit parts in shows like Eight Is Enough and The Fall Guy, before Aaron Spelling cast her in his new TV series Dynasty. When the series premiered in 1981, Locklear was a hit. Spelling immediately cast her opposite William Shatner in the cop show T.J. Hooker. The show's 1982 premiere sent Locklear into the Hollywood stratosphere. Throughout the 1980's she continued to work on these two shows and in numerous movies and television specials. In the 1990's (after a failed comedy sitcom Going Places), Locklear won the role that is probably her best known: the vixen Amanda Woodward on the series Melrose Place from 1993 to 1999. Locklear also won First Americans in the Arts: Best Actress in a TV series for her role on Melrose Place. After her run on the show, she was immediately on another TV sitcom, Spin City, opposite Michael J. Fox. Locklear also served for 6 years as the spokesperson for the Health and Tennis Corporation of America. Locklear starred in the Airport drama LAX, which ran from 2004 to 2005.

I have to agree. I just saw the DVD Season One Box for HUNTER last week. This is out of control.

I loved watching Get Smart on Nick-at-Nite when I was a kid.

I had totally forgotten about that show. I'd love to see it again.

i don't think i'm buying any anymore. just no time to watch all of these, plus reg movies. if i did buy more, probably'd go with simpsons & south park. (already have seinfeld, xfiles, st:tng.) if they made it affordable and -complete-, i'd think about buying mst3k (up to mike's first season).
