I love 80s TV but this slipped under my radar. It is also entirely possible it didn't air in my country back then.

I thoroughly enjoyed watching this. It has all the quirks, positive and negative, I'd expect from the time. The protagonists are really likeable and the actors have great chemistry. Prooven by the fact they married after the show and are still together. There is also a healthy dose of humor.

The action and violence is believable, not over the top, but also not on the level as say "The Professionals".

It's TV for entertainment like it used to be. Nothing wrong with that.
