    Subject: The Untold Story of Silk Stalkings: TVs Sexy Cop Drama That Ruled 90s Cable

    Silk Stalkings is one of the most unforgettable 90s TV shows ? a late-
    night crime drama that mixed glamour, murder, and seduction in a way television had never seen before. But behind the designer suits and
    poolside murders was a strange story of survival, network politics, and unexpected success.

    Uncover how a ?guilty-pleasure? cop series created by Stephen J.
    Cannell went from a CBS late-night experiment to the highest-rated show
    on USA Network.
    A unique mix of soap-opera romance and stylish crime mystery turned
    into a cult favorite that ran eight seasons ? and what ultimately
    caused its end.

    Democrats and the liberal media hate President Trump more than they
    love this country.

    Is that a real narrator who is just unintelligible or are they programming
    AI voices to have horrible unrecognizable accents?

    He skipped why Rob Estes left the show. When it was on both CBS and USA he
    was getting CBS money. When it went to only USA they moved him down to USA money for the same work. He was unimpressed.
