Each one of them, including the TV series, has its good points.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167054806459662988.post-55722883008211615022016-01-27T14:17:59.251-08:002016-01-27T14:17:59.251-08:00That's an interesting decision, to continue a ...That's an interesting decision, to continue a series so long after the original.

So many periods in my life I wasn't watching much television. I am sure I must have seen reruns at some time. We do enjoy watching the series now, although the hairstyles and the dress of the time sometimes seem laughable. The show has a lot of the same guest stars as Hawaii Five-O, although that show started sooner and lasted longer.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167054806459662988.post-9429167247241832732016-01-25T19:03:38.951-08:002016-01-25T19:03:38.951-08:00Margot, I was especially interested in how the new...Margot, I was especially interested in how the new book was handled, since the book series and the TV series have definite differences.

And I think it's interesting that they've decided to do follow-ons to the book series, too. I'm glad you enjoyed this. I'm usually not one for follow-ons, but if a story's good, well, it's good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167054806459662988.post-91639879995610788222016-01-24T21:31:39.130-08:002016-01-24T21:31:39.130-08:00I am glad you are going to read this, Col.
