As time goes by, sometimes we start to forget about some of the television series of the past. Let me stir your memory with one of those treasures that should never be put aside. Scarecrow and Mrs. Rey, Aired from 1983-1987 on CBS, it told a tale of spy drama, romance, and comedy all rolled into one. Captured the hearts of the public, this hour-long drama starred Kate Jackson and housewife “Amanda King” and Bruce Boxleitner as “Lee Stetson,” codenamed “Scarecrow.”
The story begins with downtown Washington DC, a train station, a spy in trouble, and a housewife. In “The First Time,” Scarecrow presses a small brown box into Amanda King’s hands and begs her to give it to “The Man in the Red Hat.” From these beginnings four seasons of a class act originated.
The “normal” housewife does the extraordinary and goes from spy apprentice to full-blown secret agent at the end of the show. Along with a reluctant first scarecrow, Amanda’s charm, determination, and honest personality begin to melt her cold heart. In the first season he admitted that one day he might become a spy. Then, at the end of the second season, her partner called her. The course of season three began to open her eyes to the excellent agent she was becoming and the true woman she was. And for season four … you’ll have to see for yourself.
With the release of many TV series on DVD, Scarecrow and Mrs. The DVD King game would be a welcome addition. I know that since 1999 there has been an online petition for Warner Brothers to publish it. Maybe one day it will happen. There are a few ‘fan collection’ DVD games available that I have in my library. Also some sites offer it on online television.
