I am an avid "Cagney and Lacey" fan.  I am surprised to see there
is virtually no discussion of the show on net.tv.  Are there "Cagney
and Lacey" fans out there in net land?

(I just saw Barry Margolin's comments on the show and I was not only
 pleased to find another fan on the net, but a fan who is male.  The
 men I've talked with in this area atleast seem uncomfortable with the
 show.  I suspect it has something to do with women being portrayed in
 a different light (i.e. capable human beings). :-)  I'm very curious
 to see how men perceive the show, and women too for that fact.)

Fan talk:
   Wasn't the episode where Christine got shot played marvelously?
   I thought the relationship between Cagney and Lacey was played to
   the limit (and to perfection!).  I was especially impressed by how
   the writers and actresses handled the problems both Cagney and Lacey
   had in dealing with the shooting.  I guess that's what keeps me
   coming back - not so much what happens in the show, but how these
   marvelous characters react to it.  It's definitely a program with
   heart.

   I didn't start watching "Cagney and Lacey" until the end of the season
   so I never saw the original actresses or show, but I can't think of a
   better pairing than Sharon Gless and Tyne Daly.  (By the way, did anyone
   catch Sharon Gless in "Hobson's Choice" with Richard Thomas on the tube
   a few months back?  I loved it.)

   The first C and L episode I saw was the rerun of the one about the 
   bag lady and it affected me very deeply.  Just thought I'd mention it
   because it is being shown again this coming Monday (atleast in this area,
   around Portland, Oregon) and I'd highly recomend it.

                  Cagney and Lacey forever!
