Joe Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 Does somebody know some information about rare 80s series like Midnight Caller, Police Story and especially two series which were produced as VICE "Spin-Offs". Of course these two series weren´t a spin off because the were produced by other channels.The names: Hollywood Beat and The Insiders.

MrsEvanFreed Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 I do recall Hollywood Beat with Jack Scalia, it lasted for only a few episodes.The Insiders was very similar to MV, both shows debuted in 1985.Just checked on ioffer.com to see it anyone was selling them on dvd-r, no results.

The real McCarthy Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Rare 80's TV SeriesTo say nothing of other Michael Mann series such as Sonny Spoon or Stingray.I don't recall either of these series . I do, however, remember propably one of Mr. Mann's earliest efforts, VEGAS starring Robert Urich and Tony Curtis from the 1970s. I enjoyed his cool 50's Thunderbird that he parked in his living room!

Administrators timm525 Posted March 31, 2012 Administrators Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 I remember Stingray.I also recall them trying to spin off the younger detectives that were in Leap of Crap but that didn't go anywhere either as far as I can recall.

Stinger390X Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Funny I never heard of either of these series mentioned?Stingray rings a bell but never saw an episode. Was that about a cop who drove a Vette?One of Manns great projects in my humble opionion was Crime Story...Loved that show too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lar Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I've found old promos for The Insiders, Hollywood Beat and Houston Knights, but after amassing literally thousands of old VHS tapes, no actual episodes. I've heard Houston Knights actually wasn't bad, but the other two were apparently pretty terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtieRollins Posted September 28, 2014 Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 I recently got a couple of old VHS tapes with Lee Van Cleef and a very young Demi Moore, in a show called The Ninja Master. But I guess it didn't work out very well as it only were made 13 episodes.Still a lot of fun, and the show also stars Sho Kosugi and Timothy Van Patten.
