Milton C. Hardcastle was a law and order judge. Mark McCormick was an ex-con, an ex-racecar driver, and Hardcastle's last case. On the eve of his retirement, Hardcastle chose an unwilling McCormick to be the fast gun (and even faster driver) for his post-retirement career as a modern day Lone Ranger. Would they get the bad guys, or kill each other, first? Return with us now, to those thrilling days of yesteryear-1983-1986, to be exact-when Stephen J. Cannell and Patrick Hasburgh combined car chases, humor, and unforgettable characters for sixty-five episodes of action-packed entertainment. We'll look at the stars, the plots, and the trivia, plus the people behind the scenes who made it all happen. What's inside- [ Scene by scene summaries of every episode with cast lists, screen captures, and quotes. [ Who was who: production staff, actors, and crew members. [ Behind the scene details and set photos. [ Coyote and stunt details. [ Lots of trivia. [ An unproduced script by writer Carol Mendelsohn, "Love, Pain, and All That Stuff." [ And a look at where they are now. "Hardcastle and McCormick was a terrific series with great stars and writing. My co-creator, Patrick Hasburgh, and I heartily endorse this book.
