not one of the best due the use of 2 songs

McCloud is again, the playboy in New York. Every women, young or old falls for his way of life. And again, he has a fight going on, something new in the series. But it was the last episode in season 2 and it shows that they had to add a kind of compilation in it. They did it in the way that McCloud became a bit depressive when a colleague of him and is walking through New York. They used a country song and played it completely to use the compilation. Some shots were new others I had seen throughout season one and two. But again it's clearly to see the new build WTC as a skyline when McCloud is on a ferry. January 1972 was the first time the building came in use.

It's always weird to see the way of living back then. In one of the episodes you could see an airplane were they could smoke and didn't had safety belts. Here we can see that it was possible to smoke in a hospital.

The story itself is typical McCloud. Not that much of action. Still, by not using that much of action it is still watchable. But being a bit of a weak script it is not one of the best. The use of a whole country song and McCloud watching a repetition on stage with another whole song takes almost over 10 minutes of the episode.

Trivia
Lane Bradbury, who plays Carol Harrington, was married to the director Lou Antonio.

Goofs
The montage scene of McCloud walking and driving through the city is composed of stock footage from previous episodes. The various shots show McCloud wearing different items and were shot during both warm and cold weather, which shows they combined various shots together even though they really didn't go together.

Quotes
Malcolm Garnett: Wrong! Wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong! This is nostalgia! Not parody, it's not burlesque, not camp! It's whimsy! You people obviously do not understand what we're portraying here. These are the Frollicking Forties. Simple years, clean years! World War Two. A war with a heart! A war that everybody could understand! This is a war you came out of the theater whistling from. What is this, an amateur show? What am I running here? How did you ever get into show business, you kids, what are you, dummies or something? You know the idea of this number or don't you know the idea? America was clean and unpolluted! We were wonderful! Everybody liked us then! And that's what the public wants to see again. Not drugs and long hair and beads, they want short hair. Zoot suits with reet pleats. Clean, young people styling. What I am trying to say is, to make this look sincere and make it look simple!
