Quotes

Judge Nicholas Marshall: As a cop I lost my collars to legal loopholes, but I believed in the system. As a D.A. I lost my cases to crooked lawyers, but I believed in the system. As a judge my hands were bound by the letter of the law, but I believed in the system. Until they took my life away. Then I stopped believing in the system and started believing in justice.

User Reviews

the miracle of the hair...

My mom introduced it to me, along with Silk Stalkings and the others mentioned.

The hair was done this way. They shot all the long hair biker sequences for several episodes then cut his hair and shot all the short hair sequences. She was of the opinion it was tied and tucked. Nice idea if he had short extensions put in to make it appear short, too much hassle. It could have been a wig too, but I did some close examination of the before and after. The hair did show his roots attached to his head and when he was in court his hair was not "padded" like that of lumpy wig wearers and the bike sequences showed the same uniform closeness of hair to head.

Excellent show, when are they going to turn it to DVD
