Happy early birthday to me!


UPS delivered an early birthday present for me today!



Thanks Mom and Dad!!



I know it's a little before my time
(seeing as the first season aired in 1983 before I was even born),
 but I love this show.

I remember one summer, I was allowed to stay up
 "late"
and watch the reruns with my siblings every night.
I'm not going to lie, I felt pretty
cool
staying up until
midnight
with the "big kids" to watch this show.

I have already watched the first couple of episodes since receiving the DVDs earlier today.
It's a little cheesier than I remember, but just as good!

Plus Scarecrow has the CUTEST smile and he and Mrs. King were just made for each other.

Plot: Amanda King (Kate Jackson) is a divorced housewife who lives with her mother, Dotty (Beverly Garland), and her two pre-adolescent sons, Philip (Paul Stout) and Jamie (Greg Morton). One afternoon, Agency operative Lee Stetson (Bruce Boxleitner), codenamed "Scarecrow", hands her a packet while he is being pursued. He later has to track her down to recover it, inadvertently getting her involved with his case. Inquisitive after the case, Amanda seeks to learn more about the Agency and ends up working for them first in an office role and later training to become a full agent, while keeping her new job a secret from her family. She works under Lee's boss Billy Melrose (Mel Stewart) and with dismissive fellow agent Francine Desmond (Martha Smith). Amanda and Lee work together frequently, though he is initially reluctant to work with the "rookie", but they become a good team. As the series progresses, they develop a friendship that turns into a romantic relationship. Eventually they decide to marry, but they still must keep the marriage secret from their employer and their families. --Courtesy of wikipedia.


If you've never seen this show, then I recommend you check it out!
