Kind of ominous that during the opening credits a shooting gun faces the camera with Jon-Eric Hexum's name on the screen.... Also in the episode he fools around with the camera and it takes a shot! Eerie!
Looking into the barrel was a pretty common cinematic trope at the time. Every James Bond movie starts with us looking down the barrel of the gun toward Bond, and Remington Steele's intro had a gun turning toward the audience as well, IIRC.
And also, don't forget the late ⏰ Henry Gibson _(_Rowan & Martin’s Laugh 😆-In_)_ who appeared in the middle of this October 6, 1984, episode of _Cover Up 🆙_ entitled ”The Million Dollar 💰 Face 😍.”
Guest starring in this episode of COVER UP entitled ”The Million Dollar 💰 Face 😍,” which originally aired 💨 on CBS October 6️⃣, 1️⃣9️⃣8️⃣4️⃣, at 🔟 p.m. Eastern Time, were Shelley Smith (FOR LOVE ❤️ AND HONOR) as former model Kristi Collins; the late Henry Gibson (ROWAN & MARTIN’S LAUGH 😅-IN) as Milton Custworth; the late Hari Rhodes (DAKTARI) as Cayman 🇰🇾 Island police 👮 inspector Jourdan; Michael MacRae (son of the late Gordon MacRae) as the security 🔐 guard at the casino 🎰; Andrew Prine (WIDE COUNTRY) as Michael Dante; and Gary Lockwood (THE LIEUTENANT) as Allan Crossland. Also in the cast were Mykelti Williamson (THE NEW WKRP IN CINCINNATI, then known as Mykel T. Williamson) as Danielle ”Dani” Reynolds’ assistant, Rick; Ingrid Anderson as model Gretchen; Irena Ferris as model Billie; Dana Sparks (PASSIONS) as model Ashley; the late Fred Lerner as Johnny; Betty Cole as Allie; Eric Fleeks as the guard; Garth Wilton as the valet; twins Jeremy and Michael Bliss as Dave Crossland; Stan Haze as the policeman; Neil Looy as the pilot 🧑✈️; and Carl Ciarfalio as Arnie. Produced by Harker Wade. Created by the late Glen A. Larson. Written and exec produced by the Mr. Larson, and directed by Phil Bondelli. Associate producers: Scott Levitta, David G. Phinney and Chris Larson (uncredited and son of series creator/exec producer Glen A. Larson). Music 🎤 by Richard Lewis Warren (the original DALLAS and brother of actress Lesley Ann Warren).
You mean 😏 Glen Larson Productions, right 👉, Walter? Not Glen Warren Productions. Besides, I think 🤔 the late Glen A. Larson is different from Glen Larson Productions.
@@jamesmcclelland1414 GMO - 1974, actually says it,s Glen A. Larson so I dunno? Was it Glen Warren or Glen Larson who created & produced Star Lost & Knight Rider, among others?Yeah, yeah I just remembered Harlan Ellison created Star Lost, my bad.
This weeks episode a ditsy woman a real wet blanket and her kids need saving, a familiar recycled plot in Glen A Larson productions. Also how to take down a heavy with a stiletto shoe!
Yes, the 1980s and most of the 20th century were rife with misogynistic, lazy writer's tropes of women. Look how Sigourney Weaver changed from a smart, accomplished, sassy single lady in Ghostbusters into a hysterical mom chasing a pram, screaming "My BAAAABY! My BAAAABY!!!" in Ghostbusters II. Basically a cartoon. You've got the irritating, overly-thin, screaming ditz like in The Shining or Rosemary's Baby, the sexually pushy, desperate fat lady like in Misery, psychopathic, lesbian old hags like Rosa Klebbs, machiavellian dominatrices like Xenia Onatopp or any evil Disney queen, of course your run-of-the-mill gold-digger/whore trope and their opposite, the empty vessel, virgin bride teen-in-a-bikini, with no mind or needs of her own. Unfortunately, the only way to move away from that writing is for the writers to die off, and that takes a generation. Then, you have the new blood's shortcomings to deal with. I think things will get better the more women writers get clout, but even then, you have Nora Ephron writing rom-coms, feeding into lonely women's corrosive psychological fantasies of love. Sometimes I think the world would be a better place if men were forced to read romance books and women were banned from it.
I understand loving cheesy movies or shows from your own era. Ill watch "Roadhouse", anytime its on TV. That being said, this show was so cheesy it gives me douche chills watching it lol. Some pretty awful acting in it as well. Not trying to be rude, but its just, well, hilarious.
Great series. Thanks for posting
My teenage time series so memorable. Recalling old days.
Super! Thanks!
✌️🤠💥🌟🌀🙏

I remember the day when Jon Erik Hexum died in October 1984! He was so.great!
Serial of my childhood...
Serial, eh?
@@CharlesWhitford Why asking when you can read it twice? Kind of dumb...
@@SDRsUnited Good one, comrade! Now go have some vodka 🍾 to celebrate.
Great show but spotted the Boom mic a couple of times,Jennifer O'Neill was one of the sexiest woman on tv back then.
Such a pity she could not act.
You did? Lol. In this episode? Id love to see where it showed, because thats hilarious.
Glen A. Larson was an absolute GENIUS!
So was Stephen J. Cannell

It still gets me to see Brnjamin Buford Blue on screen.

The Security Guard in the Casino is Tony who drives K.A.R.R Knight Rider Season 1 episode 9 (1982)
Khemt291223 You've got it! That's Michael MacRae (son of the late ⏰ Gordon MacRae), by the way ↕️.
And also, don't forget the late ⏰ Henry Gibson _(_Rowan & Martin’s Laugh 😆-In_)_ who appeared in the middle of this October 6, 1984, episode of _Cover Up 🆙_ entitled ”The Million Dollar 💰 Face 😍.”
@@jamesmcclelland1414Wait, 6th Oct 1984?? That's just 6 days before someone blew up his own head.
@@CharlesWhitford You've got it, Charles. Oh, by the way ↕️, R.I.P. Shelley 🐚 Smith.

R.I.P. Hari Rhodes.
R.I.P. Fred Lerner.
R.I.P. Glen A. Larson.

I don't think it's ever going to happen. They've buried this show with Jon-Erik.
If it came back in 2019/2020? Who would starring in it?
@@adenharrison4543 I hope they dont. this is a classic

Yep. Because we all know a 5'6" 125lb woman can take down a 6'3" 220lb man with a single karate chop to his neck.
