    WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
    Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

    RavenGlamDVDCollector So what is RavenGlamDVDCollector@gmail.com doing reviewing a screeching tyres cops & robbers show? The answer in two words: HEATHER LOCKLEAR. Enough said.The show ain't half-bad, and I'm surprised to see only fourteen other reviews here. Many boys of the Eighties grew up with this one, and you'd expect boys of all ages to go for it on DVD now, either for the abundant car chases or the pretty girl guest stars, but it is clearly not a popular seller as only that first box set was released featuring seasons 1 & 2. Now I cannot argue with this commercial failure then. How sad. What traitors these little boys grew up to be, no pride in America, just preoccupied with rap music and smoking dope. I'm a poor abandoned American-at-heart living in forsaken South Africa, but I have the sense to know that THIS IS AN ICON OF EIGHTIES USA even without my being partial to Heather. Who, by the way, looks, and fares, boatloads better in MELROSE PLACE. But I've been looking for this one for years, and I've always wanted to see the episode with Stacey's dancing scene, and that's clearly in Season Three. I've downloaded what I could from VuClip, but that's just snippets, although one included the dancing scene. So I'd buy the remaining seasons in a heartbeat if they became available. Wish I had an e-mail address for the copyright- holding releasing company.
    andrew jones Let's make this real brief.An ageing cop called hooker....you know it makes sense. I watched this when i was a too young to know better back in the 80's,i saw an episode or two on sky a little while ago..ewwwwFirst rate drivel with William shatner lurching about, out running younger criminals,being an all round hero and all while over acting in his normal manner! Not to mention the fact he has skinned a poodle and seems to be wearing it on his head.Every opening sequence we are treated to the cheesy music and a good shot of the gut as "Hooker" sprints into action.Avoid this like a car with no brakes.
    jeffman52001 T.J. Hooker is a real cool cop show.William Shatner,a.k.a. Capt. James T. Kirk of Star Trek shows he can really act.Shatner was not given enough credit for his acting by people and critics on this TV series.The other great cast who is also great is Adrian Zmed(Bachelor Party),Heather Locklear(Melrose Place and Spin City),James Darren,who to us Star Trek fans is well known for his roll as holographic character Vic Fontaine on "Star Trek:Deep Space Nine",as Richard Herd is awesome,to us science fiction fans is well know in the mini series "V" and the 1984 sequel "V The Final Battle" as John,to us Star Trek fans,he played Lt. Tom Paris's father,Adm. Owen Paris on "Star Trek Voyager".T.J. Hooker is the type of cop that everyone needs in every cop precinct,he fight s for the victims.I like this show so much,it deserves more credit.This show still rocks.
    Big Movie Fan T.J. Hooker was the best cop show in my opinion for many reasons.Firstly, the storylines and action scenes were very good. But the thing I liked most was seeing the superb William Shatner playing Hooker.Hooker was human. He was divorced from his wife because of his dedication to the job. He was a great mentor to rookie officers and he always cared about the victims of crime. And he was persistent when it came to chasing the villains. In Hookers eyes, no crime was minor and every victim of crime was a human being with feelings.It would be so hard to recommend certain episodes because they were all good. The 3rd episode of season 1 was good-Hooker was on the trail of two drug dealers who had killed a young girl. His dedication was second to none as he pursued the bad guys.A great show. Hooker is the type of police officer I hope exists in real life.
