For a while now, I've been thinking of a series of books I'd like to
see done visually.  The more I think on it, the more I realize that
TV would be better suited for this book than the movies.  Or maybe a
TV movie pilot followed by a series.

The subject:  The Stainless Steel Rat

Slippery Jim DeGriz:  Dirk Benedict
Angelina:             ???  -- needs some VERY feminine-looking 
                      actress.  How about Amy Irving?  Mary
                      Steenbergen(sp?)?
The chief (name of char?):  Burgess Meridith or Patrick McNee
Simon and Bolivar:   ??? -- wouldn't need them 'til later, anyway.

A sort of futuristic Maverick and It Takes A Thief combined.
