USA

Television Series

Producer: David Chase

Cast: Rob Morrow, Janine Turner, Barry Corbin, Darren E. Burrows, John Cullum, Cynthia Geary, Elaine Miles, Peg Phillips

The first season after creators Brand and Falsey’s departure, with future Sopranos head honcho David Chase taking control, is the highpoint of the series and one of the very finest pieces of American television of the 1990s, bringing us (amongst others) such great (a word, here, not used lightly) episodes as Mite Makes Right (with an outstanding guest appearance from the incomparable Simon Templeman) and Fish Story (featuring future Sopranos alumnus Jerry Adler.)
