chum981 Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 Thanks rodriguezisdead. I wonder how we'll vote this time around. Things are slightly different already - Evan got slightly higher marks than the Pilot...also the marks generally seem to be a little lower...

MiamiCop123 Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 Definitely Miami deserves at least a 9 out of 10, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViceFanMan Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 The "Pilot" was superb...but you needed it to have my all-time favorite Season 1 episode/s--the 2 part "Calderone's Return" (also known as "The Hit List" and "Calderone's Demise")!"Calderone's Return" just exploded with action and music, it had a superb plot & performances by all, filming locations were awesome, fashion was cool, suspense, etc... I can watch this 2-parter over and over, and hardly ever get tired of it.Other superb and favorite episodes from seaon 1 are "No Exit," "The Great McCarthy," 2-part "Golden Triangle," "Smuggler's Blues," "The Home Invaders," "Evan," and "Lombard."

Not just because of how good it is, but also because of the feeling that something bigger is going on. A chapter is closing in Sonny's life. And at the same time a new one is beginning. This is symbolized in the final shot. He holds his dead old friend while his new friend (that he will move on with) touches him. Sonny at the center of a chain. This why I find it better to watch Evan as the season finale when viewing S1. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, my favorite episode of Season 1 is probably Smuggler's Blues, I find the whole sense of adventure and the atmosphere just awesome. Evan is one of the best too, and it probably holds up the best, in terms of writing and acting. One of the best of the entire series. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smuggler's Blues Posted October 5, 2018 Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 Smuggler's Blues! So good I named my boat after it (in the correct style and typeface of course!) You can see it in this video at about 1:51 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very professional especially with the song overdub! It looks like you enjoy the boating culture as much as I do? Here is a short film of mine slamming in the bay by my marina. It's shot off a phone so the quality sucks but enjoy anyway. By the way...what make is your boat? I don't recognize it or any outstanding features. Is it a European build?

Rattlehead Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 I have to say the pilot followed by Evan and Lombard. The pilot just about fits in with the show, it nailed everything! The latter two are also well-written, you really do invest your emotions in the title characters. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOV02777.MPG That's kind of you, thank you! Your boat looks great - looks like you can handle it too! Curious to know what the guy in the other boat did after shouting 'hang on!' My boat is a Jeanneau 805 Leader, built in France. It's more of a cruiser, definitely not a muscle boat - it'll reach about 34 knots (just under 40mph). There's a full tour of it here if you're interested: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Gretsky Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 (edited) Season 1 is easily the best season of the five. It's loaded with one classic and iconic episode after another. I'm going to give "No Exit" the edge as my best/favorite of S1. I remember it so well from the fall of '84. My first exposure to Bruce Willis and then that shocking ending.

I also love the Pilot, Smugglers Blues, One Eyed Jack. Evan by far and away I agree, but Smugglers Blues was excellent as well, as was Milk Run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
