    I directed three episodes and really enjoyed the young cast. I look back now and realize how innovative the show was for it's time while written by Nick Corea (who passed away from cancer). The show also had a really great DP by the name of Charlie Correl. I wonder where he is today. Maybe he'll read this comment and tell me how to get in touch with him. Patrick Swayze's father had sadly passed away just before I was to direct my first show on this series. This was the first time the show had a woman director, as was usual for that period, and I was a bit nervous, but Patrick, being the total professional and gentleman that he is, made every effort to make my job easier. Nick Corea was a crazy man, but I look back at this show with great warmth. Barbara Peeters

    I remember watching the show when I was 13. I think it was opposite some other popular show like Knight Rider, or some popular half hour sitcom. When it faded away, I wasn't surprised. I had managed to tape the intro theme on a cassette tape back then but I have never seen it again. I didn't remember Swayze or the 70's show guy. I remembered Tracy Scroggins and that she played someone named Tracy. I also used to think Peter DeLouise was on the show, but that's 21 Jump Street of course. Still Eagle, Dancer, J.T., Tracy.. I always wondered if this would ever be on TV again. I'm thinking no, but I will always remember it.

    I may be one of the few people who remembers this show. It aired on Friday nights, I believe on ABC. I don't remember it lasting very long and believe only a handful of episodes were every made. I loved it, and had an episode or 2recorded at one time that I watched repeatedly. It starred PatrickSwayze, and Tracy Scoggins (who I immediately started crushing on). It was about a street gang given a choice to do time or work undercover getting in where the cops couldn't. It kind of was a mix of "The Warriors" meets the "Mod Sqaud" meets "21 Jump St.". I thought it was a cool, fun show, but, I was young and wonder if it would hold up today being viewed as an adult. Wish I could find it on TV or DVD somewhere to find out.
