Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

pinbyte 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.

tweetymac5 I started watching Silk Stalkings when it aired on the CBS Crimetime after Primetime schedule in 1991 and was glad to see it picked up on the USA network instead of being cancelled like my other favorite show Dark Justice in which Janet Gunn also starred. When the show first aired you could see the great chemistry with Rob and Mitzi. It was sad when they killed of Rob's character and Mitzi left shortly afterwards. When they brought in Nick and Tyler to replace Rob and Mitzi it just didnt work. The best thing that happened was bringing in Janet and Chris to replace them. Janet and Chris also had great chemistry. Bringing in these two allowed a great show to go on for four more seasons. I do hope they will do a movie that will clear up the cliffhanger that was left when the show ended. Please bring back Janet and Chris and the rest of the gang. Dont leave it hanging like that.

Chris-625 Silk Stalkings is considerably the best cop show on television today. The homicide cases were interesting and tends to get even better week after week!!!Most importantly, the thing that keeps viewers watching is the relationship between the lead cast... For the first 5 years, Rob Estes and Mitzi Kapture were cast as Chris and Rita and have certainly earned the respect of fans of the show. For the next 3 years, Chris Potter and Janet Gunn took over as Tom Ryan and Cassy St.John, this cast was in my opinion better than the first 2. However, both teams have EXCELLENT CHEMISTRY and portrayed their roles extremely well. Charlie Brill who plays Captain Lipschitz was hilarious in his part. SPOILERS AHEADThe only downside of this show is the endings.The first "silk" cast had a sad ending. Rob's character Chris Lorenzo died somewhere in the middle of the 5th season leaving his wife Rita Lance pregnant with his child. The newer "silk" cast didn't really got an ending at all.They just left cliffhangers (unresolved questions) everywhere as to what is the outcome of Tom and Harry?????? Will Cassy ever forgive Tom???? It had lasted for 8 years but judging from the ratings it got, it should never have got cancelled.....Perhaps people could write in to usanetwork and ask for a movie to be made....tie up loose ends from the 8th season.

LJ-5 Some people like it, some don't. I'm the latter.In general, this show is disappointing. One of the main reasons is that Stephen J. Cannell fails to create a Palm Beach, FL scenario using his San Diego filming location. As a result, upon watching the episodes, some may be convinced (at least visually) that the story (ie plot) is based in San Diego, not Palm Beach, FL.Honestly speaking, San Diego is a very beautiful place that has a lot of unique characteristics. By NO means can it be "transformed" into a Palm Beach scenario. (And it's also a bit ridiculous to see a pair of male-female cops fooling around, doing "dirty" things, having talks on "inappropriate" subjects, etc.)If I were to choose only ONE police drama, then Miami Vice would definitely be the one to go (for) 'cause that's the one which is filmed in the real location and almost every episode is packed with the same level of intensity (and "heat").
