This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

It's really sad, that there still is no DVD release of this great series. I never missed an episode. Please, SONY PHE, release this TV-show!!! I guaran-damn-tee you, it will be a BESTSELLER!It's a shame, that there's only one season. Maybe HARDBALL didn't start at the right time... And when i look at todays shows, i really miss the old days with Charlie & Kaz. So many epic moments, so many LOLs... And the theme song from Sylvester Levay & Eddie Money: GREAT...and also never released. If SONY would start e petition, i'd be one of the first to sign it!If you have the chance to watch this show, don't hesitate. It's worth watching more than once...

I LOVED this series, I have a few of them on tape. I started watching the pilot because I was a John Ashton fan, and he is closer to my own age... but by the time the pilot movie was over with I had fallen in LOVE with Richard! The first season was way better than the second.. for as long as the second lasted! I would really like to have a copy of the original pilot movie. I have tried and tried to find it but have never been lucky, if anyone can help me find a copy, please let me know! I am a huge fan of Richard Tyson and have seen him three times in person. I think he will someday be a big star, it's just taking him a long time! I can send a blank tape if someone can make a transfer, or if anyone can give me some ideas on where to look for a copy, I would appreciate any help.

Hardball was a very entertaining show to watch! Sure, the writing wasn't the most advanced or creative, but it took what good fiction is supposed to do; take us away for a hour.The writing, and the acting of the characters Charlie and Kaz, was fantastic. The contrast between them with the age, cultural and their own unique personalities is what, I feel, carried the show and gave it humor. Richard and John, you did a GREAT job!!!I was very disappointed to see that Hardball ended It would seem more now then ever, that if a TV show, despite the writing (e.g., the talented writing and acting of the USA show, Monk (which was originally on a major network)) doesn't have enough violence, or sex in it's content, it just doesn't make it. I bet a lot of quality entertainment has been lost because of those standards. Granted Hardball probably wasn't cut because of that in itself, but I imagine there might of been more of a audience if they threw some dirt on it, which is really to bad. Plus if I am recalling correctly, the show was on a Friday night, which was a mistake for the audience they were trying to hit.If anyone knows how to get episodes on VHS, or DVD, post a note and let me know.~L

Okay, this was a short-lived series that should have continued.
I especially got a kick out of the suspenseful, action-packed pilot (first episode), and loved the relationships that developed, especially between "Kaz" (Richard Tyson) and "Billy" (Jarrett Lennon), who was kidnapped, and ended up in huge and exciting (and VERY FUNNY!) adventures. I liked the icehouse scenes the best, and that car scene (into the bay) was HOT!Whatever HAPPENED to Richard Tyson?! He was funny-cool!
