OK. I'm going to give most of the Wikipedia summary of this show. I really liked it, which, as in this case, usually means early cancellation. It ran for about a half season (13 episodes) in 1986. The story begins in Houston, Texas in 1899, as Sheriff Jonathan Grail tried to round up the villainous four-man Pike Gang, of which he had once been a member. After cornering the gang in a stormy Native American graveyard, a bolt of lightning struck all five men - transporting them 87 years forward in time to 1986. With no way to get back to their original time, the five men agreed to a truce, and started a private investigation/detective agency to pay their bills. The five men, now working as the "Double Eagle Detection Agency*," helped right wrongs, protected the downtrodden, and fought off drug lords and gang leaders, all while continuing to operate with 19th-century weaponry, including revolvers and shotguns. Several of the episodes dealt with problems the men faced in the 1880s that had to be resolved in the 1980s. No one knew their real identities, and most people assumed that their old-style clothing and weapons were an affectation. During their first case they met Lt. Maggie Randall, a Houston detective, who became romantically involved with Grail and often helped them in their cases. The series featured crime drama and shootouts, although the heroes never killed anyone, thanks to their superior marksmanship. The show also featured humorous moments. The humor derived primarily from the criminals' unfamiliarity with 20th-century technology, as well as the contrast between their 19th-century mores and those of the 20th century. Most episodes featured flashbacks, which were done in a sepia tone. George *Because they came from the past with one hundred double-eagle gold coins. They went to a bank, expecting to get $2000, but got a lot more, as each $20 double eagle contained an ounce of gold

Either I've gotten very insightful, or very lucky, lately (here, Name That Actor, Three Actors or Three Movies ). I swear I haven't been googling. George

No. I saw Apollo 13 this weekend and the roles just seemed cameo-ish enough to be Clint. It was a lucky guess. George

That was my thinking. Apparently, the disturbance off Africa dissipated. The one currently off Louisiana is not expected to strengthen, but should bring some much-needed rain to Texas. George

Idris Elba John Cena Sylvester Stallone George

Clint Howard? George

Sounds like a Muppets movie, but I wouldn't know which one. The Muppets Take Manhattan? George

Doc Hollywood. I knew it wasn't Michael J Fox. George

Bridget Fonda? George

Unfortunately, other than Daredevil and Elektra, I can't think of a MOVIE she's been in. (And I can't remember who else was in Elektra.) George

This map should continually update. There's only one minor disturbance off the coast of Africa right now, but we have at least two months of REAL hurricane season to go.

Well, "Tom Swift"'s series finale ended with a cliffhanger, so it appears that a projected second season will not happen. The show had its moments, but I'm sure it didn't appeal to a wide audience. Stargirl starts back up at the end of the month. George
