Hot Dog

This episode features Don Johnson at the height of his charm and talent and makes one wonder if it would have been he rather than Richard Hatch (Nothing against Hatch, who Johnson ALMOST costarred with in the original Battlestar Galactica a few years after this when Johnson was almost cast as Starbuck alongside Hatch's Apollo. Dirk Benedict won the role instead.) if the course of the show would have changed? I know this, if Johnson would have been the new partner NOBODY would have been comparing him unfavorably to Michael Douglas who left the show at the season's opener. As is the 2 shows that the unfortunately now departed Hatch was known for, namely this and Battlestar Galactica, lasted only one season with him as the star. I'm not saying that it's his fault but while he was talented actors like Johnson are MAGNETIC. It's impossible to not watch someone like that. Very few have that kind of "X Factor" and that's the secret of their incredible success. There have been many. Elvis Presley, Bruce Lee, The Rock, just to name a few. And of course, Don Johnson who as I say in my MAKES this episode as the titular "Hot Dog".
