I used to love this show as a kid and recently I've been re-watching some of it and I still think it's as good as I used to.
Micheal Brandon and Glynis Barber are great as James Dempsey and Harry Makepeace. The chemistry is amazing and because it was real all the more interesting to watch.
It's a shame that they only made 3 seasons - although its great to re-watch them all again.
My only complaint is that they never got together romatically and I think that they should have.
