This is one of the coolest Hardy Boys episodes because Shaun SINGS! He performs "Surfin' U.S.A." on the beach for Frank & their Hawaii pals on location. A must-have for any Shaun Cassidy fan. No love scenes, though - darn!

Here is another intelligent show that brings back a ton of fond memories! This episode, "Wipe Out", and ALL the other episodes of the "Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries" starring Shaun Cassidy, Parker Stevenson, and Pamela Sue Martin/Janet Johnson, belong on DVD! Shaun and Parker as Joe and Frank Hardy brought humor and warmth to their brotherly roles; and the intrepid Nancy Drew was fiercely independent and a perfect role model for young women. Of course this version of the "Hardy Boys" was enhanced by Shaun's singing - and "Wipe Out" featured him singing not his own tunes but the music of "The Beach Boys". This series also featured a memorable ensemble of guest stars including the late Rick Nelson ("The Flickering Torch Mystery" with great concert footage), Lorne Green, Patrick MacNee, Melanie Griffith, Paul Williams, Ray Milland, Valerie Bertinelli, Maren Jensen, Anne Lockhart, and a host of others. And let's not forget Edmund Gilbert who, in my mind, will always be "Fenton Hardy". Today's young tv viewers (and the rest of us, too!) need to get re-acquainted with Nancy, Frank, and Joe! Let's see this complete series on DVD SOON!

The Hardy Boy Mysteries (all three seasons ) need to be released on DVD. The first season was good , but the next two were really great. I remember that I couldn't wait for Sunday night to watch the show. I was sooo disapointed when Nancy Drew was on instead. My favorites were the Mystery of King Tut's Tomb,The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew meet Dracula and Search for Atlantis. I do hope we can see these wonderful memories again!!

I was one of those girls who just LOVED Shaun Cassidy, I even had a Hardy Boys t-shirt in grade 3. Now after years of waiting to see these shows again, I was suprised that besides having cute guys, the show did have a good story line. And yes Shaun does sing, although I thought he sounded better when I was 7. Anyway this is a good one, It will bring back some of those childhood warm fuzzy feelings.

I watched This show when I was a young girl when it was first on TV and I had a crush on Shaun Cassidy. This tape has good episodes but now that this show is on DVD it is better to get that instead. The first season Of The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mystery Show is now on DVD!
