Canada Movie Reviews of Riptide Season TwoMovie Review: Another exciting Stephen J. Cannell show, Season 2
Really enjoyed this show back in 1980's so snatched it up when I realized it was available on DVD. If you liked Season One, you'll like Season 2 which is more of the same. Really enjoy Computer Geek "Boz" and the portrayals of early computers and IBM style PC. In one episode, large conglomerate security company buys out finacially strapped RipTide Detective Agency, so the 3 have to go to work for them. Boz is envious to get his hands on "state of the art" large RAND 1660 Computer he saw occupying most of 13th Floor of security company on initial visit! On his first workday in regular computer section, everyone denies existance of 13th floor! In this episode, the "60" of the RAND 1660 stood for 60 Giga-bytes! Typical home computer now has a lot more than that and sits on desktop! Nice remembering the nostalgic references in this 1980's show! |
