About this deal

Bref, une véritable madeleine de proust pour quiconque l'aura vue en "première diffusion" sur une bonne vieille tv "cathodique". The difference is that Caron was able to turn this standard guy-girl detective team plot on its ear and created a wonderfully funny and different type of TV show: Moonlighting. It was truly a self-reflexive show, with the leads often commenting on the shows' own deliberate weaknesses in arbitrary, ages-old plot twists, or lame humor.

As in the Willis/Caron commentary track, they point out the desperation of the situation in trying to wrangle this season out, but they're much more upbeat about this particular season than the previous commentators. Surely one of the best TV shows of the 1980s, Moonlighting not only made stars of Cybill Shepherd and Bruce Willis but also set the standard for many shows to come, the stars' on-screen chemistry and the wacky writing key to this series' success.It’s been a while but I think the DVD used the same old TV broadcast transfers rather than new ones, but I could be mistaken. They filmed a majority of an episode in black and white, they would have David and Maddie talk to the camera, and they had Orson Welles give a short preface to an episode (which aired for the first time just days after he died. Yes, TLITIM is very disappointing in terms of the music change (it IS awful), but like other posters here, I believe that for some reason this version has always been out there and was unknowingly used instead of the actual ABC version. Maddie's distressed because David insists on throwing a bachelor party for Walter and a huge formal wedding for her.

We certainly remembered her from her iconic role in The Last Picture Show, and the hilarious The Heartbreak Kid. The Rolling Stone's You Can't Always Get What You Want and the O'Jay's For the Love of Money are included along with many more. There's still some funny chases (the airplane ride with David and Bert in Take a Left at the Altar has a nice big-screen feel), and some funny Willis line readings (the Cool Hand Dave two-parter has some vintage Willis shtick). But if you're coming to Moonlighting fresh, or you haven't seen the series for a few years, I suggest renting Moonlighting: Season Four.

Je crois me rappeler que c'était tout à fait inédit à ce moment là par rapport au série policière classique. They talk about the shooting of the pilot as well as the sequences that the network had problems with. I remember reading the trades about this actor that was ticking off all the established stars in Hollywood because he had snagged a record 5 million for his very first starring role in a film -- totally unheard of at the time (it didn't help his popularity in Hollywood when the film promptly bombed).

I would almost be willing to bet that Moonlighting creator Glenn Gordon Caron was playing that game when he came up with the idea for this show: "She's a famous fashion model whose lost all of her money. Abgesehen natürlich von fiesen modischen Fauxpas - wir haben sie ja schließlich fast alle begangen, zumindest die über 30 jährigen. While Maddie continues brooding in Chicago, David recruits Bert Viola for a case concerning an AWOL bridegroom. What had been the hippest show on television for the last three years, had, over the summer, turned into some kind of dreary, downbeat soap opera, and an unfunny soap at that.Maddie is a former now (thanks to her accountant) poor super-model, who has two choices: Closing and selling the detective agency she owns or make it a profitable business. The least whomever was responsible for the music replacement in the chase sequence was to fly in the music from the pilot episode (the cue that accompanied Maddie storming to David's office to inquire about that wristwatch). They talk about the script and how unusual it was to film a TV show in black and white, as well as unfilmed sequences.
