A US
TV program
in the manner of
Dempsey and Makepeace,
Superman and to a lesser extent, the X-Files in that it features a strong-jawed
male who is dedicated to crime-fighting, constantly embroiled in secret missions and in a perpetual state of being about to
have it off with his female sidekick............but never quite does, for that would the destroy the
sexual tension.*
It was this sexual tension which drew me, as a young teenager to the eponymous "Scarecrow" {played by Bruce Boxleitner} causing me to rush home from school to see whether, in today's episode, the unlikely set of circumstances resulting in he and Mrs King becoming involved in a promising clinch would lead at last to their union reaching fruition.
As far as I know it never did.
*See fig. 1 - Superman, it is widely acknowledged that post Lois Lane consummation it was a spent vehicle.
