Silk Stalkings DVD Review
Overview:
"Silk Stalkings" stands as a testament to high-quality entertainment with its successful nine-season run. Despite securing only one Emmy nomination, this show carved a niche for itself in the cable television landscape. Its lack of critical acclaim could be attributed to its pioneering role in the genre, preceding the widespread recognition of cable series that later came with hits like "Sex and the City" and "The Sopranos." Even so, "Silk Stalkings" played a significant role in paving the way for future cable classics like "Monk" and "The Shield."
Plot and Characters:
Set in the glamorous backdrop of Palm Beach, Florida, "Silk Stalkings" follows detectives Sgt. Chris Lorenzo (Rob Estes) and Sgt. Rita Lee Lance (Mitzi Kapture) as they dive into the elite world of high-profile crime. Their captivating dynamic is central to the series, as they unravel the mysteries shrouding the rich and famous, who often believe they're untouchable.
The first three seasons feature Ben Vereen as Capt. Hutchinson, while Charlie Brill steps in as Capt. Harry Lipschitz for the remainder of the series. Much like "Law & Order: SVU," "Silk Stalkings" delivers a tightly scripted investigative drama.
Season 1 Highlights:
The DVD of Season 1 offers a gripping collection of episodes. The premiere kicks off with Chris and Rita tackling the murder of a model caught in a tumultuous divorce, linking the case to an old cold file. The plot thickens when the ex-cop who first investigated the case becomes a victim himself.
Other notable episodes include "Dirty Laundry," where the detectives probe into a congressman's mysterious death, and "Internal Affair," highlighting Chris's entanglement in a police brutality controversy during a burglary incident.
