I was quite shocked when Cagney pulled up her skirt when interviewing the Techie to get him to talk It was quite erotic the way she subtley seduced him

i wasnt at all. the way it was written was genius as well. why were you shocked?

I just didn't expect it, not in Cagney And Lacey.

part of what was so brilliant about "Cagney & Lacey" was the characters were fully dimensional, and not someones fantasy as to how women should be.

Right on!!!! It was great to finally have a show with REAL women!

Christine + Mary Beth forever

Roseanne + Jackie forever

If I remember correctly, Chris used to flirt quite regularly with techies etc. to help the process along :)

Therefore, I thought it was just hilarious when MB flirted with Det. What's-his-name (Strego ?)in "You've Come a Long Way, Baby" (S7,Ep5) eating eel & telling him it's supposed to be an aphrodisiac!!!
Everytime I see this scene I have to laugh so hard...

C&L are going undercover as "mature" hookers (Tyne showing of a sensational pair of legs)in this episode - just awesome!!!
