    Not a bad TV series
    I remember watching this show as a child, and when I got older I was surprised how good of a show it was. I guess at any age one can spot good programing. Wasn't there someone before Michael Douglas on the show? (ie that guy from Battalstar) Malden, and Douglas, have been very good actors, I do not recall many A actors on T V let alone 2. Watching a rerun I saw Arnold as a crazy weight lifter, wow. 10/10
