Summary of "The Complete 1st Season - Great 80s Spy Show": I had the pleasure of meeting Bruce Boxleitner at Comic Con a few years ago. He was there to promote the direct-to-DVD Babylon 5 release, and I ran into him at a party Warner had for 300. He's extremely nice, and we had a great conversation about TV-on-DVD, and his desire to get Scarecrow out for the fans. He said, "Who do I talk to about that?" and I pointed him in the direction of the Warner execs who handle TV-on-DVD titles, and he spent about 10 minutes pleading his case for the show. Meeting an actor can always be hit-or-miss, but fans of Scarecrow should know that Mr. Boxleitner was a super nice guy when I had the chance to meet him.
I had a lot of fun watching Scarecrowfor the first time again. 80s shows can come off as very cheesy, but Scarecrow really holds up. Sure, it's dated in terms of some stories (the Russians are evil), but it's still a really fun spy show, and one I'd recommend. It's a bit of a bummer that there aren't any extras, but considering how long it's taken to get this out, I think fans will just be happy to own the show. (read entire review)
