    I remember growing up in the 90's as a young man I was glued to this series which was properly and rightfully called "Silk Stalkings". It first started on a late night trial run on "CBS" then it would quickly move over as a regular series at the "USA Network" and would run strong all thru the 90's. The key players would change hands a few times yet the first and best cop team was that of Sgt. Rita Lance(Mitzi Kapture)and Sgt. Chris Lorenzo(Rob Estes)and later I remember the attractive Janet Gunn as a cop. The series centered around the team of cops investigating murders, blackmail, scandal, white collar crime, drugs, and sex crimes involving high class escorts all of this happening with the ultra and very premium rich and well to do of Palm Beach, Florida(yet the series was mostly filmed in San Diego, California and Arizona).The thing that stuck with me the most from this series was the hot sexy scenes of eye candy with hot sexy high society socialite women wearing very sexy colored bras and underwear! That was a dream come true for a young man. Most memorable episodes that featured hot actresses that sported hot sexy colored bras were ones that involved Paula Trickey, Brittney Powell, Erin Gray(of "Buck Rogers" fame and she's still hot!) and Debbie Dunning(of "Home Improvement" fame)and southern character actress Kim Morgan Greene was hot in one episode wearing a silk sexy green bra! Need I say more the series had it all it had drama and suspense with crimes of passion with the very rich and it was spiced up and treated with very sexy scenes that were eye candy treats and most episodes had plot twist. To bad that series this excellent aren't made anymore as "Silk Stalkings" was clearly a seduction and guilty pleasure for a viewer to watch.

    Before I offer any description of this TV show, I want to point out that the 'opening sequence' rates in my top 10. It is a sexy and overt grabber sequence that rivals that of "Hawaii Five-O", "Miami Vice", and even "Mission Impossible".It is usually followed by Rita's narrative of what is yet to come.So... we have this pair of police detectives. They are based in Palm Beach Florida. They are undoubtedly solving a murder that takes place before they even run the credits. A formula that remains in use.Chris and Rita, the two main cop partner characters continue to have a professional but close relationship which adds some spark to the show. Others will acknowledge a real chemistry there, though perhaps awkward. When fire was added to the relationship it burned out the show. Keep the spark, prevent the fire, now that keeps us wondering what will happen next week.Perhaps, the actors were done. The show still went on to much disappointment (at least by me). Forget the 'second cast'. The formula doesn't mix. Please don't dismiss the first few years.Silk Stalkings presented a very new and different scene for a police detective environment which borrows from "Miami Vice" and then takes it over the top. It never takes itself too seriously, which really adds to the enjoyment.I am pleased that it is now offered on DVD, and can now be rented. When you get sick of commercials, just pop a Silk in the DVD player and enjoy. Sure it is fluff... but when you get to the commercial break YOU DON'T GET ANY COMMERCIALS. You are right back into the show. Pause to pee if you like, but it does not really matter, you'll pick it right back up.Perhaps I am biased somewhat... I used to watch it when it was actually on TV. This is a landmark show in my opinion. The outrageous police department decor and the dress of the main characters helped keep me interested.Ignore the predictability, "Silk Stalkings" is a one of a kind, and worth a few enjoyable hours.

    I remember staying up and watching this show mostly due to the almost sofcore stories and air brushed cast but as i grew older i started watching the show more for the unnecessary comedy than anything else.Just noticing the typical casting done for the extras and supporting cast, every cop in that station was a model or made of plastic. Every female cop wore more make up than a porn star and their police procedure were just silly. The acting wasn't exactly bad persay just that the cast didn't have much to work with or just became compliant to getting a pay check.Watch it for fluff and turn your brain off, and you'll get some pleasure from watching this bad TV.

    Silk Stalkings is; for what it is and it doesn't pretend to be anything else; great viewing, especially the episodes with Chris and Rita, the other pair just don't have the same screen effect.
