the show was troubled...when the 2 average actresses thought they could get away with their acting skills...and not going for the beach and pool scenes
Wow, with the exception of one of the posters on here, you guys all really need to get a life. Why so angry people? Why so angry? There were WAY worse shows on in the 80s at the time and this one was actually pretty cool. It had a cool theme song and the episodes were entertaining. Besides, grow up, it was the EIGHTIES! Cheesy, glitz, glamour, and overhyped shows were on. This was just one of them. It's a great rememberance of 80s tv. I thought it was a cool show.
i agree! this show suffered from the unfair bias of people who couldn't accept that 2 attractive, well-endowed women with adequate to decent acting skills could be successful. and if two such women were put together in a show (a sound and logical business move, actually) so what?!? the show i think was fairly interesting, shaking off some birth pains but it could have grown.
I don't see any reason why 2 beautiful women cannot be put together in a TV show. Sure, it's probably mostly eye candy but so what? As long as the show is entertaining, it really doesn't matter if they're large-breasted or not. Lynda and Loni were two beautiful and popular celebrities in the 70s/80s--they're good friends, too, so someone was bound to put them together in a tv production. FYI, the show was cancelled not because of low ratings but because of Loni's marital problems that affected the production schedule. By the time the show was cancelled, it was strating to get interesting.
PARTNERS IN CRIME jumped from day one. This was obviously a pathetic attempt to revive the careers of two large-breasted TV stars from the 70's. I believe the premise had to do with the two of them inheriting a detective agency from their husbands or something, I really don't remember. I watched two, maybe three episodes and didn't care. An embarrassment to all involved.
Partners in Crime proved just how stupid and pandering television executives had become in the early 1980s. Lynda Carter and Loni Anderson were at best mediocre actresses whose claim to fame was their prodigious chest sizes. The biggest boob in this series, however, wasn't in either Carter's or Anderson's blouse. It was the moron who thought that these two vacuous pieces of eye candy would divert the viewer from the ridiculous premise, terrible acting, and shoddy writing. Even AfterMash looks like Masterpiece Theatre compared to this dreck.
Loni Anderson & Lynda Carter were paired up as detectives in San Francisco. They ran around in designer clothes and supposedly solved murder cases that stumped the police department. Wow, how original.
