McCloud: Top of the World, Ma! (1971)
Season 2, Episode 2
6/10
McCloud isn't almost in it, only a few minutes
1 October 2012
This is a weird episode into the McCloud franchise because McCloud himself is not that much in this entry. He does solve the problem but it's more about the Ohio boy coming to New York to collect his money he earned from a mobster.

Another thing is that you can see that McCloud was big back then in the early seventies. For the first time we so common names from the genre acting in McCloud. Robert Webber and Stefanie Powers have an important part. It's also for the first time that I've noticed blood running from persons being shot.

Another thing that is a must see is the retro look of New York, parts that have been erased and demolished nowadays. We do see a part of 42nd street and you can easily spot the advertisements for horror flicks (Vincent Price) and the start of the grindhouses.

This really had a good story and do involve McCloud here and there with his typical stories and jokes. Even his whole department isn't almost in this episode. strange but a good story.
