A Limited Premise

Some things are good but only within certain limits This very show may well be one of them because its 4 TV-Movies grab people's attentions very well with the plots but once it was extended into a TV-Series it wore out including use of what Many Shows use as a last resort when they're on the way out of which is The Concept of The Evil Twin.But for The Fun of Nostalgia's sake you may turn to this to reminisce as well as watch for Patrick Duffy in his Pre-Dallas Days.This TV show even inspired a limited run of a Comic book series for 8 issues through Marvel Comics Group.
