I'm on my 2nd viewing of the entire series....I love it, I would have watched it through 15 seasons if I could. I wasn't happy with some of the character development, for instance, the theater troupe. But the main characters were powerful and compelling with Ian McShane being my favorite male lead and the actress who played Trixie, my favorite female. That the series ended over a monetary disagreement makes me so angry. They got the audience fiercely interested in this show and then left them high and dry, making me feel like a jilted lover.
