My first love...the best TV programme I had ever seen - more convincing, more dramatic, more enjoyable and real than anything I had seen before...it was on a Thursday over here and I used to come home early from the pub when I was 18 to watch it. Those characters are as real to me as any in fiction.

My mom watched it. I was a bit too young to appreciate it but I liked the theme song.

It's still a great watch, but hard to believe that it was considered gritty and real. Shows how unreal television was at the time. It was part of my courtship with my wife. Thursday night was my card game with the guys, so she'd tape the episodes for us to watch later. (Yet another reason for me to visit her apartment.)

Loved David Caruso as the leprechaun of an Irish gang leader, complete with bowler hat and Lucky Charms dialect.
