So, as you can suspect I had forgotten about this blog once again. It's not even cute anymore, it's annoying. (Me forgetting, not the blog, hehehe.)
I swear if it wasn't for that VOX newsletter I would have completely forgotten about this blog a long long long time ago.
Thanks for the newsletters VOX! Keep 'em comin'!
============================
So anyway, I bring you today one of my 90's guilty pleasures!! ;)
Before there was an Elliot Stabler & Olivia Benson (L&O: SVU), there was Chris Lorenzo & Rita Lee Lance!!
They were the hottest detectives of the 90's.
The Place: Palm Beach PD (it was filmed in California, though.)
The Show: Silk Stalkings
The Actors: Rob Estes & Mitzi Kapture
I absolutely LOVE this show!!! Ok, so it's no SVU, but it was awesome!!
Sure the colors of the sets & clothes were bright enough to make you blind, the writing wasn't the absolute best and some the show's plots were pretty unbelievable, but that's all part of what makes this show so great.
But the best part of the show were the two leads. Rob Estes as Sgt. Chris Lorenzo & Mitzi Kapture as Sgt. Rita Lance.
The chemistry between these two cannot be beat! You want sexual tension... you got it! And very out in the open and clear for everyone to see. The even kissed a few times while being undercover. None of that SVU-Olivia-&-Elliot-we're-best-friends-but-we-secretly-have-the-hots-for-each-other-but-won't-fess-up-to-it thing.
No way! Rita & Chris were the cutest best friends to ever appear on a TV screen, they hug, hold hands, the works. But they would let each other know (and the viewers) that they would totally get together if the opportunity presented itself. And they did!!! Right in Season 5! And it was good!! LOL!
I am lucky enough to own Seasons 1 & 2. I'm just finishing the second season now, and it's just too good.
And I so want the other three seasons. (The show lasted 8 seasons, but only the first 5 are the ones that are worth your time 'cause Chris & Rita leave the show after the 5th season.)
