I can hardly wait till Hunter's 1990-91 Season comes out on DVD, because even though Hunter's 7th Season left us mourning the loss of Hunter's hot looking original partner(Sgt. Dede McCall), it was still kind of interesting seeing Hunter getting a new partner twice, especially since Hunter was never really partnered up with any other female officer during the first 6 seasons throughout Hunter's whole 7-year run on NBC.

Therefore you could say it was kind of an interesting transition seeing Los Angeles police Sgt. Dede McCall(Stephanie Kramer)getting replaced by the foxy Los Angeles police Detective Joanne Molenski(Darlanne Fluegel) on this police drama in the Fall of 1990 and seeing Hunter getting another new partner in the second half of this 1990-1991 Season when Molenski gets replaced by the sexy Los Angeles police Sgt. Christine Novak(Lauren Lane)in the "Fatal Obsession" episode when Novak's predecessor(Molenski) gets killed off in the Winter of 1991.

This is also the season when both Los Angeles police Sgt. Hunter(Fred Dryer) and his superior officer Los Angeles police Capt. Devane(Charles Hallahan) transfer to the LAPD's Metro Division along with Hunter's new partners Novak and Molenski as well as the season when Hunter's new fellow LAPD officers Righetti(Joe Bucci) and Dorsey(Ronald William Lawrence) join the cast & crew of this show.

This is also the season when Hunter gets a new unmarked unit by replacing his mossy green '77 Dodge Monaco with Hunter's brand spankin new sky blue '91 Ford Crown Victoria.

Unfortunately this was the season when the ratings on this police drama went downhill, which I'm sure was initially due to the fact that Molenski's predecessor(McCall) was no longer on this show since Stepfanie Kramer had left the due to differences Kramer had with Dryer behind the set since Dryer didn't get along with Kramer in real life just like Erik Estrada(Ponch) and Larry Wilcox(Jon) didn't get along in real life behind the set of CHiPs along with the fact that the show HUNTER wasn't quite the same without McCall's face or spunky personality in it, which was kind of like it was when Ponch's original partner Jon Baker(Larry Wilcox) left CHiPs in the Spring of 1982 and got replaced by Bobby Nelson(Tom Reilly) in the Fall of 1982 leaving us to mourn the loss of Bobby's predecessor(Jon), but I peronally thought Novak was the prettiest partner of Hunter's of them all, despite the fact that this show flopped during its last season and cancelled in the Summer of 1991, due to plummeting ratings.

It was also interesting seeing
