3.5/5
The cast is good at working with what they have on their plate: [Jan-Michael] Vincent plays the brooding protagonist well enough, as does [Ernest] Borgnine as the joking sidekick/mentor. Go to Full Review
Jeff Jarvis People Magazine 04/16/2020
These are characters who have depth and feelings. The lines they read are, for once, above the Romper Room comprehension level. And the plots are interesting and intelligent enough to fill an hour. Go to Full Review

Drew H 06/16/2024 Such a great show. It does show its age but enjoyable none the less. See more 12/25/2021 I remember watching this as a kid, and loving it! Even in 2021, it's still an awesome series to watch. Yeah, watching it again almost 40 years later, the special effects leave a lot to be desired, and there is definitely some corniness to it, but the storylines and action scenes still hold up overall.
