Thanks for the memories!

Best movie of this year hands down!

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Ileana, nice to hear there's another person who liked the show. In Finland we had 15 or 16 episodes I think, and I recorded all of those. I still do have them on VHS.Since Hardball's not on DVD, or even original VHS, I've been thinking of getting my recorded episodes to digital format at some point. I do have the pilot also, but due to some sad coincidences, it has a bit worse quality than the other episodes.Great series, John Ashton and Richard Tyson had a nice chemistry and fitted their roles perfectly. The best thing in the series was the humour, which often came from these two guys competing each other. That lead to a lot of juicy loud-mouthing and amusing happenings.Why it was canceled after one season, is a mystery to me, but I definitely miss the characters. It's not realistic to wait for it's second airing I guess. :(

Hardball was a very entertaining show to watch! Sure, the writing wasn't the most advanced or creative, but it took what good fiction is supposed to do; take us away for a hour.The writing, and the acting of the characters Charlie and Kaz, was fantastic. The contrast between them with the age, cultural and their own unique personalities is what, I feel, carried the show and gave it humor. Richard and John, you did a GREAT job!!!I was very disappointed to see that Hardball ended It would seem more now then ever, that if a TV show, despite the writing (e.g., the talented writing and acting of the USA show, Monk (which was originally on a major network)) doesn't have enough violence, or sex in it's content, it just doesn't make it. I bet a lot of quality entertainment has been lost because of those standards. Granted Hardball probably wasn't cut because of that in itself, but I imagine there might of been more of a audience if they threw some dirt on it, which is really to bad. Plus if I am recalling correctly, the show was on a Friday night, which was a mistake for the audience they were trying to hit.If anyone knows how to get episodes on VHS, or DVD, post a note and let me know.~L

I agree with 'what happened'??? This was a really good show but apparently didn't pick up the viewers. That was their loss and ultimately the fans it did garner. The show was a mixture of drama and comedy from my recollection. I just remember it was GREAT!!!

Okay, this was a short-lived series that should have continued. I especially got a kick out of the suspenseful, action-packed pilot (first episode), and loved the relationships that developed, especially between "Kaz" (Richard Tyson) and "Billy" (Jarrett Lennon), who was kidnapped, and ended up in huge and exciting (and VERY FUNNY!) adventures. I liked the icehouse scenes the best, and that car scene (into the bay) was HOT!Whatever HAPPENED to Richard Tyson?! He was funny-cool!
