Pacific Blue

This show was one of the best out there, while on the air. And, I think it still is. The first three seasons, staring Rick Rossovich, Paula Tricky, Darlene Vogle, Marcos Ferraez, and Jim Davidson, was the better of the five years the show was on air. The last two seasons, they kind of did go over board a little bit. Though some of the new characters such as Russ, Jamie, And Bobby, were a good addition, and wouldn't have harmed the show on their own, I think taking out Tony and Victor, and adding Monica was a terrible idea! That's what ruined the show in the end. But, overall, the first three seasons, were the best. Those five cops didn't just work together, they lived together. It seemed almost like a family, something you wouldn't see on most cop shows. They were awesome cops and great at their jobs. They even almost "laughed" at the regular patrols in their cars, because these guys patroling the beach on bikes could go places the cars couldn't, they could catch the bad guys the regular cops couldn't. I would definitely recommend watching this show, especially the first three seasons!!!

Have watched the re-runs on the USA channel up through the beginning of the 1999 season, now. This is a tad better than "Baywatch on wheels," although the pictorials of Malibu females lend a certain "Baywatch" atmosphere to the program (I note that at least one of the principal actresses, Paula Trickey, has been a guest on "Baywatch" on several occasions).

But the main point is that it's fun. The impossible actions with the bikes, the frenetic chases, the improbable romances, and, yes, the beefcake and cheesecake, all combine to make up a fine, mindless hour of excellent relaxation. In addition, every once in a while they try to get serious about a theme, and they even occasionally pull it off. Trickey in particular has the makings of a real actress, and the revamping they did in 1999 seems to have worked pretty well to update the show's appeal.

A worthwhile recreational hour.

This was a show about cops on bikes by the beach. I personaly enjoyed it. Paula Trickley's performence increased my intrest.

Good show and worth watching.

I will borrow a little from Sheila Silver (Shannon Tweed), to start the description, "Healthy, young, gorgeous people who get to work outside in shorts all day." To be more specific, a team of sexy Police Officers who accomplish crazy bicycle stunts while chasing down criminals on the beaches of Santa Monica.

I'm an 80's kid, and when a show like Baywatch or Renegade came on, I was glued to the Television. Pacific Blue is a light drama, the characters are professional police officers who on occasion, bravely break the rules. It has the crimes and police chases, just less gritty than a show like NYPD Blue, and also offers a look at some fun in the sun. Perfect for snowy days. The show is easy to watch, and it ended by 2000, so it does not feel overly topical. My new show to watch while I do laundry.

As always, if you made it this far, thanks for reading, and if you watch the show, let me know what you think.

Welcome to sunny Santa Monica, where the beaches are warm and inviting, and the girls are clad in only in bikinis. No, I'm not talking about "Baywatch!!" I'm talking about the hit cop-drama "Pacific Blue." This show has the same intensity as "Miami Vice" and "NYPD Blue", where the cops not only clash with the scum of the streets (or in this case, the boardwalk and the beaches), but with each other. Jim Davidson and Darlene Vogel lead the colorful cast as a patrol unit of bike cops making sure the sand doesn't apply for a spawning ground for crime. My personal favorite character in this show is Monica Harper, the young cop who likes her job, played by the hot Shana Moakler. "Pacific Blue" has great action and good performances, and plus a lot of famous people make appearences in the show, such as the WWF's Shawn Michaels and Sable, and even, GASP!!!, Danny Bonaduce!!
