Simon & Simon: Season Seven

Simon & Simon Kick Ass!
This 1987-88 Season of SIMON & SIMON rocks and is the first season when Joan McMurtry joins the cast as Rick & AJ's hard-nosed new cop buddy(Lt. Abigail Marsh)from San Diego P.D. whom replaces her streetwise predecessor Det. "Downtown" Marcel Brown whom departed the show in the Spring of 1987.

This season also takes me back to memory lane to when I was a Freshmen in high school and when CBS used to show this detective drama every Thursday night.

Something I found intriguing about this detective drama was SIMON & SIMON was it seemed unique in many ways, because for one thing, SIMON & SIMON was of the first and very few detective shows that took place in San Diego instead of L.A., New York, or even San Francisco.

For another, it was also one of the few detective shows about a detective-duo, especially since Rick & A.J. were not only brothers, but were partners that ran a private detective agency together, unlike most of detective dramas like the ROCKFORD...

Love this show. We watch these older shows as only 'reality shows' appear to be masses on TV anymore.
Only problem with 'Shout Factory' is they do not have 'closed captioning' for hard of hearing. As this is an older show, those of us who loved Simon and Simon years ago, are a wee bit older and some of us could use the closed captioning. You pay the extra money so you can get this show, but Shout Factory needs to then provide a better quality.

Simon & Simon Season Seven review
I really liked this season especially entering a new cop who is a female to replace Downtown Brown. I was very touched in the episode "Sudden Storm" that the show dealt with a real issue that happens in society and how the brothers dealt with the crime and especially liked the ending where the whole family came together and was able to begin the healing process. The brothers are getting better cases and they know most of the people in San Diego which makes getting cases easy and they are able to be more financially stable. I would recommend this show to all my family and friends because it shows family values and is better quality for family viewing.
