I was 29 when this show started; it dovetailed beautifully with my growing identification as a feminist at that time. Besides helping me to see women in an action series who were strong, positive role models, I could realistically identify with them as normal, conflicted human beings with foibles, families and everyday problems and concerns. Gless and Daley made their characters real people. The writing in this show was terrific. Right up there with the best TV series of all time.
