Five Seasons

"Jonathan Smith is an angel sent down to earth "on probation". He meets, and pairs up with, his human partner and friend, Mark Gordon. Jonathan and Mark are given assignments by "The Boss" (God), where they are required to use their humanity (and sometimes a bit of "The Stuff" when needed) to help various troubled souls overcome their problems. These problems include families dealing with sick loved ones; "all-around losers" who are encouraged to find their self-worth; people coping with loss of family such as war widows; parsons who are struggling to lead their flocks; greedy businessmen being encouraged to use their wealth for good; charlatans who used civil rights for personal gain; and discouraging prejudice in regard to people of different ethnicities, socioeconomic backgrounds, and disabilities". Wikipedia

I remember as a child being fascinated with this show but i don't know why, the show was always repeated in the UK on a Sunday afternoon and me and my older sister would always be watching them. A great shame Michael Landon died not long after the show finished in 1991. A classic..

It Is Driven By Greed And Controlled By Fear.

Between The Law And The Mafia, The Law Is Not The Most To Be Feared

I can't say I watched regularly but did watch plenty of times. I did enjoy the uplifting, and sometimes sad stories. Plus, being a Michael Landon fan made it even more enjoyable.

Michael Landon was a very underrated actor..

DeNiro, did you know one of his early (if not first) movie was "I Was A Teenage Werewolf?" I think that was when I first saw him, a few years later on the late show. smile
