T.J. Hooker: The Protectors (1982)
Season 1, Episode 1
SUPERB PILOT EPISODE
28 March 2002
If you've read my comments on the T.J. Hooker TV series you'll know that I think it was the best TV show for many reasons. This was the pilot for the series and when I first saw it I was really impressed.

This movie had everything-moral dilemmas, action and a great plot. We got to see top cop Sergeant Hooker preparing the police cadets for the real world. We got to see Hooker instilling his morals and values on all the cadets.

I was most pleased with this movie for the above reasons. Some cop shows are just car chase after car chase and the characters have no depth. Hooker was superbly played by William Shatner who made him an interesting and human character with depth and an interesting background.

I strongly recommend this pilot movie and the series that followed.
