Hunter is a NBC Police Drama from 1984 - 1991. It was created by Frank Lupo, and is a Stephen J. Cannell Production. This is one of the greatest cop shows from the '80s! The two main characters are Detective Sgt. Rick Hunter (played by Fred Dryer) and Detective Sgt. Dee Dee McCall (played by Stepfanie Kramer). Together, they are partners in the LAPD Homicide division. They are solving murders and catching those bad criminals! If you watch this show for a while, you'll really root for Hunter and McCall. The episodes always have me at the edge of my seat. Not only is the show exciting but it also has its funny moments between Hunter and McCall. One thing that can make this show different than other cop shows is the wonderful relationship between the two partners. And in my opinion, Dryer and Kramer did an excellent job acting!!
'Hunter' was such a great show - even despite having several cast changes throughout the course of it's 7 year run, the chemistry between characters was inspiring - most definitely the relationship between Hunter and McCall, and the captain between the two themselves (Charles Hallahan was the best captain, in my opinion, of the 3 captains that starred throughout the course of the show)....
Direction, writing, acting, and the associated music (have I left anything out?) were the main components that undoubtedly led to the success of the show...
If you get a chance to watch 'Hunter,' watch it!

The basic virtue - the proposition of an old fashion hero. Man of law , out of law metodes, angry, charming, in a non - stop revenge, more hunter than cop, it is one of beautiful characters from a large and noble family. From music to plot, from action scenes to romanticism, an impecable serie. And a great hero.
This was a great show when it first aired in the 80's and it still is a great show in re-runs and on DVD. It says something about a series when it is still being aired 20 years after its original date. The production value for this show with all its action and stunt sequences was incredible. Of course, the chemistry between Fred Dryer and Stephanie Kramer was what really made this show. You were always thinking, "Are they ever going to date?" LOL - good memories. It's too bad that Stephanie Kramer had to quit the show because of health issues (kept spraining/breaking her ankle because of all the stunt work involved - surprising, considering she was a former female wrestler). Unlike the A-Team in that it had lots of hard stories, murder, blood, and violence. But very exciting to watch!

- TriviaDetective Sergeant Rick Hunter's (Fred Dryer's) badge number is 089, Dryer's jersey number when he played for the Los Angeles Rams.
- GoofsVehicles often explode when they crash. This is not probable because automobiles and other vehicles do not use explosive fuel, only flammable fuel.
- Alternate versionsWhen the show was shown on the TBS network up until 2002, the episode intro teaser in all season 5 and 6 episodes had the first few notes of the opening title play over the titles popping up on the screen. Episodes now shown on TV Land have restored Fred Dryer's original voiceover in this part, saying "Tonight On Hunter".
