1. I didn't, but I've seen a few things about that show. One reason I wanna see it:
Bruce Campbell.

Hail to the king, baby.

4. You're lucky. If my girlfriend of 5+ years even thought she had a chance with him...
I'd be on the streets. She has an autographed copy of his first book on display in our apartment, complete with his "Gimme some sugar, baby" autograph.

7. They don't write good theme songs like that any more:
In eighteen-hundred-one the Revolution had been won
And Uncle Sam’s favorite son had a job he needed done
Which brought Jack to a lady, both beautiful and smart
Who found his mix intriguing; a scoundrel with a heart!

From the Halls of Montezuma to the Shores of Tripoli
There was never a leatherneck braver, a Daring Dragoon is he
He’ll halt the bold advance of Napoleon’s attack
There ain’t a French or pirate rogue who don’t... know Jack!

From the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli
Sailin’ round the bloody world to defend democracy
And when ya need a fightin’ man ya’d trust to watch yer back
Just ask the bloke right next ta ya - (parrot: "Damn right!") - it’s… Jack!

9. Okay, back to Sharon Gless
My cable and internet was out last night, so I popped in the Cagney and Lacey DVD my son gave me for mother's day. As soon as I heard the theme music I got all nostalgic and remembered how happy it made me every week when that music would come on. What great actresses, both her and Tyne Daly were - what great chemistry they had.

I think she's looking a bit fitter than her Queer As Folk Days, but those glasses! She wore them when she was on the View plugging the DVD.

I always thought a great series would be Cagney and Lacy II - Cagney is retired in living in California, and Lacey's son Harv Jr. is now a private eye and they work together on cases. Yo, Bernie Rosensweig, ya listening?

12. Yeah, I think it's season 2 - or season 2 with Sharon Gless
Officially Season 1 was with Meg Foster. I always loved the fact that they replaced Meg Foster with Sharon Gless because they thought Meg Foster wasn't femmy enough - then along comes Sharon Gless and she plays the part tougher then Foster ever did.

11. I couldn't believe it was her. Dare I say, I thought she used to be rather hot. Those glasses have
got to go. I can't quite explain her look, but it's rather dated. She looks like one of those over the hill fashion designer people. I expected her to have a long cigarette holder.
