I just watched the first episode featuring Edward James Olmos. I think he single- handedly saved the series. Is that the narrowest tie you've ever seen?

No, a western string tie is the narrowest tie I've ever seen. I still have ties that skinny in my closet.

I can feel it....coming in the air tonight....OH LAWWWD!!!
 
Capt. Adama wasn't in the first few episodes, he wasn't available but Michael Mann liked him so much he killed off the original Lt. and replaced him with Mr. Olmos.

Not sure about "saving" the series (the music, clothes, and art deco neo noir kinda helped too), but he definitely made the most of the part.
Haa haa I have all the episodes and still pop the odd one in...mostly to catch the odd embarassing cameo from actors that would eventually go on to bigger & better things.

Ted Nugent, Gordon Liddy, Danny Sullivan, Phil Collins, Ving Rhames, hell even Penn Gillette had cameo's.

It must have been around episode 5 or 6. 5 was so poorly acted I almost stopped watching. Dennis Farina was just on.
 
Olmos' desk in that series is the cleanest ever, almost like it was still in the furniture store. Just a phone, and sometimes his folded hands.


I remember a Fat Boys cameo.
 
I think he was the first Hispanic ninja.


I saw that episode, too. Some of them were pretty clever. I remember one where nothing made any sense until the last five minutes when they tied it all together. My ex kept pestering me, "what's going on?" Like to drove me nuts.

If I recall he lived in a glass house with no furniture and swords.
 
Bruce Willis, bad guy episode 8, with hair. Phillip Michael Thomas needs to sign up for acting lessons. People smoking in airports. Another time, another place.
