I think anyway. ;-) I originally got hooked on the show when I watched it through PAX when I was in high school. It's been ten years now, and I'm watching a version of it without the PAX edits, and I love it ALL THE MORE!!! Sometimes it's a little corny, but as a former boss of mine says, "Corny sells." I love the humor in the show, and the way that Lee (Bruce Boxleitner) always seems so annoyed, yet patient with Amanda (Kate Jackson). There is NO other show that comes close to the way Lee and Amanda worked on screen. Bruce and Kate may not have been best friends off the camera, but I don't much care about that because they made it work on film. It may not air on TV anymore, but if it ever comes on DVD, I highly suggest EVERYONE buy this show - because even after watching every episode more than several times, they never cease to keep me entertained.

This is one of my favorite shows of all time. When is it going to come to DVD?!?!?I have such fond memories of watching this show during high school. My friends and I couldn't wait to discuss the episode each morning after it had aired.When my brother and I were both in college, we would watch reruns late at night during the summer after returning from our summer jobs. It was the same every night: Scarecrow and Mrs. King, Remington Steele, and the Paper Chase. A perfect evening's entertainment!It seems like this kind of show has disappeared. Sad. I'd love to see less reality TV and more of this kind of scripted show.

The cable network TVLand recently had a promotion weekend that Scarecrow and Mrs. King was part of. I was so excited to see a few episodes, but it made me wish that the series was on DVD even more!Scarecrow and Mrs. King was a great series about an unsuspecting housewife who gets pulled into undercover spy work with a reluctant and then fully accepting spy. It's a little hokey, but great overall. Kate Jackson plays single mom, Amanda King and Bruce Boxleitner plays spy, Lee Stetson. The show was really all-inclusive, action, romance and comedy all in one.The sexual tension in the 1st two seasons is a little like the dynamic between Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepard in Moonlighting.

This show was not only great because of the chemistry between the main characters but also for the freedom the director gave them. Bruce Boxleitner once said that Kate Jackson had a gift for improvising. He would play off what she said and it made the show that much better. Compared to today's shows, Scarecrow and Mrs. King is a pleasant and enjoyable show.I enjoyed watching her balance her relationship with her mother and boys with her secret life as a spy. Bruce Boxleitner plays the professional very well. In one episode he talks about being so relaxed in the jacuzzi he forgets the time. She tells him she has no clue what he's talking about.This show is on DVD and VHS sold as two shows at a time through Columbia House club. I would like to see it in stores. Not a big fan of clubs and I would like to buy it as a whole season.
