Cebalord Very best movie i ever watch

BlazeLime Strong and Moving!

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

lil_missy_1999 This was one of my favorite shows...if anyone happens to have copies of this on tape please contact me and let me know because I would pay to see this show again. Unfortunately I lost the copies I had in a fire and would love to get them back again. Billy Warlock is still a great actor and so are the other people from this old show. I still till this day don't understand why they pulled this from the air, but some re-runs of it would be fantastic. I was only 11 when this show aired I think, and I know it taught me good values and I know that I would definitely let my two daughters watch it when they are old enough to so they can learn the same values that I did.

tulliac I just recently pulled out my "Hat Squad" videos (11/03). I was certainly glad I taped the entire series for my future viewing pleasure and it truly is a pleasure.It's a shame this brilliant show had such an unbrilliant time slot (Saturday night) or it would have become a classic. Ah, but I digress.The story goes that police officer Mike Ragland and his wife grief counselor Kitty, became foster parents to three unrelated boys who's parents had been murdered. They grew up to follow in their foster father's footsteps and became an elite squad who emulated crime fighters like the Untouchables. This storyline was intreging enough but when you add the emotional attachment and genuine love that brother's share you have a wonderfully entertaining series.Don Michael Paul played the eldest son Buddy Capatosa. Buddy epitimized leadership and honor. He was a man who was fairly aware of his good looks but never seemed to pay much attention to it. This quality alone, made him simply irristable to women and he usually had no trouble have them flock to him like sheep. Buddy had a long fuse but once it had burned to its end... watch out. But, his charming side was what shone most often and to keep his younger siblings in line, he'd regularly order them to "drop and give him fifty".Nestor Serrano played the middle son Rafael Martinez. Raffy believed he was devestatingly handsome but this fact did nothing to gain him female companionship of any kind. It became a family joke that poor Raffy couldn't get a date if his life depended on it. But, despite his lack of girlfriends he was a loyal and intense person who despised guns. He used anything he could get his hands on to fight - a magazine, a playing card. Just about anything would do.Billy Warlock play the next to youngest boy Matthew Mathison. Matty was simply the most comfortable around woman and they did back flips to get his attention. Matty attended law school and was the brains of the trio.He had it all.Mike and Kitty also fostered another young boy named Darnell. He was in his early teens and absolutely adored his older foster siblings.The "Bonanza" connection is that golden formula of the tight family unit that would die for one another. The strongest bond is between straight men and "The Hat Squad" was the just that... three men who loved each other dearly.The strong cast and storylines were beautifully filmed (obviously in Vancouver) by X-Files Rob Bowman. And the soundtrack... second to none. If you ever get the chance to see an episode, I for one highly recommend it.No

tanipost I really loved watching the Hat Squad when it was on. I started watching it because Don Michael Paul(Buddy on the show) is one of my favourite actors. I was truly disappointed when the cancelled it after one year. It was a show that had awesome family values and showed the strength that a family can have with one another even if you aren't related by blood. I hope to see it in reruns someday as I was only smart enough to tape three episodes.

Pat1973 Well first of all this show should have been on longer. It's about 3 brothers that were adopted by their foster dad who was a cop and all 3 ended up being cops too. It was a show that was about family values and great people in general. The show showed that you can be a great cop and to be great brothers to one another. The show was on Saturdays on CBS and it only stayed on 1 year but it could not find a audience. Believe me I was there every Saturday when it was on! I think it will always be one of my favorite shows! Billy Warlock was really cool and the whole cas was fresh and ready to give 100% to give this great show all it had! I wish I could say it was on reruns but it is not! Believe me I have been calling T.V. to at least show it again on reruns. Who knows maybe it will happen? Out of 4 stars I give this GREAT show 4+. It's was that good.
