Found Spenser for Hire on a free channel. I don't think I ever watched it although it sounds familiar. It's a pretty good show.

I'm trying to find the show Vegas he was in.

Robert Urich was such a cutie back then, so sad he passed away at 55 from cancer.

The Spenser series is based on books by the late Robert B. Parker.  Current books are written by other authors.

@luvmyteddy4 That was one of my favorite shows! Robert Urich was very pleasant to watch!

If I want to see Vegas I have to pay for it.

Almost every time I think of an old show I want to watch I usually have to buy the channel, sometimes I get lucky. There are very few channels I pay for. I wish I could buy them all.

The man who played Hawke (Avery Brooks) on Spencer for HIre  also played Benjamin Sisko on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

Yes he did and he has one of the best voices in acting, and so did Andre Bragher (I hope I spelled that right).
