Some of the best news of the year popped up the other day.
Moonlighting is coming to the streaming service Hulu on October 10.
Wooo-Hooooo!
I loved Moonlighting back in the late 80s and anxiously waited every Tuesday night (although admittedly, not every Tuesday night as the show had a reputation of missing deadlines) for the romantic comedy/detective show featuring David Addison and Maddie Hayes.
The banter, the arguing, the slapstick, the slamming doors… it has everything.
It had an episode written in total iambic pentameter.
It had a nine-minute Billy Joel song with a dance routine.
It had a double dream sequence episode in black and white.
And I will be looking to rewatch all 67 episodes once it arrives on Oct. 10.
Moonlighting, which was my personal Wild Card inductee into the EYG Hall of Fame in 2023, was an awesome classic that help boost EYG Hall of Famer Bruce Willis into prominence while bringing Cybill Shepherd back to the forefront of the entertainment industry.
I can’t wait to add Moonlighting to the watch list.
