Murderer’s Row: Part 1 of the penultimate story of season 2. There is a contest of bounty hunters including the regular characters in catching a bounty but the man offering the bounty is hardly a nice guy. Not bad first part of this story and not bad cliffhanger with the bounty making her getaway.

Murderer’s Row: Part 2 of the penultimate story of season 2. Not bad conclusion to the story. Perhaps predictable but it was still good the way the villain was tricked in confessing the murder he committed.

Carrick O’Quinn: Season 2 finale. The episode title character played by Don Michael Paul, a police squad commando who accidentally blinds a judge who happens to be a friend of the series lead character. Feeling guilty by what he had done to the judge, O’Quinn quits the force and decides to help the blind judge but without revealing his real identity to her. This episode was an attempt, albeit a failed one at that, as a pilot for a spin-off series. In fact Kathleen and her regular co-stars have limited appearances here as this was mainly a story about O’Quinn and his efforts to help out blind judge Sarah Jessup. Playing another judge was Joseph Campanella. A couple of years after appearing in this episode he played another member of the legal profession when he played a lawyer in The Bold and The Beautiful at the same time that Kathleen’s co-star Barbara Crampton was a regular in it. Overall Carrick O’Quinn is not a bad episode although the action for it was quite minimal and it would have been interesting to see where the story would have gone on from then had there been a spin-off series.

Dutch On The Run: Season 3 opener. What it says in the episode title turns out to be a setup and objectively speaking quite a clever one at that. What a cliffhanger this all leads to.

The Trial of Reno Raines: Season 3, Episode 2. Like Doctor Who’s The Trial of a Time Lord, the episode title refers to the series lead character being on trial. Like the format of the aforementioned Doctor Who story, this Renegade episode is part of a story arc as it ends on a cliffhanger for the second time in the row in the series. In retrospect knew that Hound Adams could not be trusted to take his place on the stand. Good first episode for Nancy Everhard as RW Thackery.

Escape: Season 3, Episode 3. Apart from the reprise and title sequence Kathleen is not in this episode. Very good successful escape attempt from the lead character with only a little excitement that came along with it. Very clever on what prevented Dutch from killing or hurting Bobby.

The King and I: Season 3, Episode 4. Nice pun on the episode title and the King refers to Elvis Presley. Pretty good episode about someone who may or may not be Elvis Presley. A very lovely tribute to the King.

Black Wind: Season 3, Episode 5. Guest stars James Shigeta and Kelly Hu, the former of whom had recently passed away. No Kathleen here but still an enjoyable episode with a good adversary in the episode title character, a rogue karate fighter.

Way Down Yonder in New Orleans: Season 3, Episode 6. No Kathleen here but this episode guest stars Fabiana Udenio and she and Kathleen were both in Bride of Re-Animator a few years previously. Also guest stars William Lucking. I somewhat expected him to be the chief villain but quite a surprise that it turned out to be the complete opposite. Not bad episode with New Orleans as its setting.

Rustler’s Rodeo: Season 3, Episode 7. Guest stars Lance LeGault in his second appearance, albeit as a different character, on the series. I have seen him as Colonel Decker in another Stephen J Cannell series The A-Team. His other roles included Kidnapped which also featured Kathleen’s Fraternity Vacation co-star and fellow wife Barbara Crampton. The case here involves being at a rodeo after a friend of Bobby’s got beat up there. Quite like Kathleen wearing the red-white striped rodeo shirt. Wonder if it reminded her of the same coloured bikini that she wore in Fraternity Vacation. Very very impressive when Kathleen as Cheyenne lassoed one of the villains off his motorbike.

Muscle Beach: Season 3, Episode 8. Originally aired on Halloween 1994. Kathleen herself was in a Halloween movie a few years earlier in Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers. Good lesson about drugs at a body building scene. Guest stars Eric Allan Kramer. The first time I saw Kramer was in American Wedding and my favourite part of that movie is the bachelor party scene in which Kramer’s character had helped to set up. Best scene of this episode is Kathleen doing her dance moves in that gym scene. It is as seductive as her scene with Barbara in Fraternity Vacation as both required an amount of choreography to present well the respective scenes. After finishing watching Muscle Beach watched both aforementioned scenes in comparison and it looked rather splendidly see them side by side together.

The Late Shift: Season 3, Episode 9. No Kathleen here. The episode title refers to the name of a radio show hosted by Lydia Quantro (Kate Hodge). Quite a revelation of who Donald Dewitt turned out to be. What a trick that was played on Dutch on The Late Shift and the package that he received at the end of the episode.

Thrill Kill: Season 3, Episode 10. When a bounty dies after being captured by rival bounty hunters it eventually ensues in battle of life and death with these rival bounty hunters. The episode sure delivered what it says in the episode title as it was a thrill in the chase for a kill.

Teen Angel: Season 3, Episode 11. No Kathleen here. Guest stars Emma Caulfied. Emma Caulfield later played Anya in Buffy but never appeared in its spin-off Angel. What is curious about this fact is that this Renegade episode title refers to her character Cindy. So she got to be the Teen Angel here but did not get to be in the unrelated Angel. Kat Calhoun mentioned Dracula and this is kind of prophetic to Emma Caulfied later entering into a world of vampires in Buffy. In fact as series regular she was in Buffy vs Dracula which had opened Buffy’s fifth season. Playing Cindy’s mother Lorraine was Joan Freeman and according to IMDb this was last ever work. The red bikini that Avalon Anders (Stacy) wore was just as revealing as the red-white striped bikini that Kathleen wore in Fraternity Vacation. Janet Gunn was delightful as Kat Calhoun and I felt disappointed that she ratted to the villains only for it to be revealed that it was part of a plan to flush them out and defeat them. An enjoyable episode even though its subject matter is not something I tend to be comfortable with.

Den of Thieves: Season 3, Episode 12. No Kathleen here and instead for this episode it has Kim Johnston Ulrich as Officer Elaine Hart. Also good having around in this episode is Lisa Stahl even though her character was with the bad guys. Goochie (Tony Longo) says that he is looking for an issue of a certain magazine. It would have been good if that issue had been instead one that had Kathleen’s Fraternity Vacation co-star and fellow wife Barbara in it. Obviously no one bother to check this out thoroughly.
