The series was twice as long as it needed to be. There were episodes around the middle of the run that had me banging my head against my desk.
In one episode, the entire first twenty minutes seemed to comprise nothing more that the protagonists sitting around a pleasant Santa Monica apartment, smiling and reeling off pages of tedious and unnecessary exposition. Dreadful stuff.
Characters ultimately were wasted too -- particularly the pedophile and the PR totty, neither of which seemed to ultimately have much reason for being there.
