Description: For The First Time Ever The Four Top-Rated SPENSER Movies In One Explosive Collection
Following the surprise cancellation of the hit series Spenser: For Hire, ABC produced four full-length movies starring the late Robert Urich as the wisecracking-but-deadly Boston detective. Avery Brooks (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine) co-stars as ‘Hawk’ in these television events based on the best-selling books by Robert B. Parker that The New York Times calls "one of the great series in the history of the American detective story." SPENSER: CEREMONY Starring Robert Urich, Avery Brooks, Barbara Williams Screenplay by Robert P. Parker & Joan H. Parker
When a 16-year-old girl disappears into Boston’s sleazy underbelly, Spenser and Hawk pull the trigger on a teen pornography ring that leads to a shocking final twist. SPENSER: PALE KINGS AND PRINCES Starring Robert Urich, Avery Brooks, Barbara Williams, Alex Carter (CSI), Matthew Ferguson (La Femme Nikita) Screenplay by Robert P. Parker & Joan H. Parker
Spenser, his ‘lady shrink’ girlfriend Susan Silverman, and Hawk investigate a brutal murder in a quaint New England town where snow falls in kilo packages. SPENSER: THE JUDAS GOAT Starring Robert Urich, Avery Brooks, Wendy Crewson (24, AIR FORCE ONE)
Spenser is hired out-of-town and may be out of his league when a terrorist group with a taste for car bombs targets a controversial African leader. SPENSER: A SAVAGE PLACE Starring Robert Urich, Avery Brooks, Cynthia Dale, Wendy Crewson
A TV news cameraman is found murdered, and Spencer is hired by an old flame to investigate a movie producer who may be shooting more than film.

Rating: - Spenser for Hire
Spenser for Hire is simply good entertaining television. ABC should also consider offering the short-lived "A Man Called Hawk" on DVD as well.

I miss Barbara Stock. The chemistry between Robert Urich and Avery Brooks is still good, even though they shot much of it in Canada. Did I mention that I miss Barbara Stock? What were they thinking?
