This is a three season series that should have lasted longer. Gritty action, fresh crisp dialogue and Boston scenery make this series a must see.
Robert Urich, Avery Brooks, Barbara Stock and cast were made to order for this series. There are some differences between the characters in the book and in the series, but each actor manages to bring their characters to life. I could not see anyone else in the roles of Spenser, Hawk, Susan, Marty, Frank and Rita. I was much younger when this series started and thirty plus years later the stories are still powerful and relevant. This is because of brilliant writing and brilliant acting. The rarely spoken of friendship, "kinship by trials" of Spenser and Hawk is in some ways Shakespearean and most certainly legendary for anyone who was and is a true fan of this powerful, sometimes light hearted drama. For those who were too young to remember Spenser: For Hire or those who have never seen it you are in for an experience. I myself look forward to enjoying the adventures though bittersweet for some of the cast are no longer here. They left behind them solid performances to be proud of. As you watch this series I hope you will agree with this review also. Spenser has an extraordinary spirit for seeking out the truth, the right and wrong. And when the right or wrong was too complicated he let his instincts and fate determine court justice or the finality of swift justice. You will not be disappointed.

Just the other day,I was thinking we'd have to wait a whole year between Season 2 & Season 3.
I'm sooo glad they didn't make us wait so long for Season 3!
Now if they can just also re-release the Movie Collection at a REASONABLE PRICE?

I was a Spenser fan when it was on television. I've been searching and searching for this series on dvd. I even bought some dvd's by some dvd companies that I didn't know. I had quite a time trying to get my money back because they looked like some kid made bad picture quality copies off of a vhs player and printed the artwork onto plain white printer paper. These have excellent picture quality and packaging.

“Spenser For Hire: The Complete Third Season” stars Robert Urich as the Boston private detective who’s not only well read, but is a gourmet cook, an ex-boxer, and former Boston policeman. Operating out of a converted firehouse, this modern-day Renaissance man drives around in a vintage Mustang solving crimes and looking after those who want some class with their private investigating. His main street contact is Hawk (Avery Brooks), a tall menacing black man who operates on both sides of the law, and Sgt. Frank Belson (Ron McLarty) is Spenser’s chief contact in the Boston Police Department.

The third and final season (1987-1988) finds Spenser’s independent minded love interest, Susan Silverman (Barbara Stock), returning from the West Coast determined to work out their differences. Spenser’s longtime friend and valued ally in the Boston PD, Lt. Martin Quick (Richard Jaeckel), gets sidelined with a heart condition, but Hawk and Sgt. Belson are still on hand to cover his back. Spenser’s cases this season see him providing shuttle diplomacy between a judge and a gangster, tackling sexual harassment within a college university, solving a murder in old Plymouth during Thanksgiving, and revisiting the case that’s been haunting him for years — the case that cost him his police career. Guest stars include Samuel L. Jackson, E.G. Marshall, Ving Rhames, Andie MacDowell, William Hickey, Philip Bosco, Shirley Knight, and Giancarlo Esposito.

The 5-Disc DVD set has no bonus features.

Spencer For Hire Season 3 had everything I wanted in a detective series. The plots were good. They were exciting with likable characters in them. Hawk made a perfect counterpoint to Spencer as usual. What more could one want?

Season three is not playable on my DVD player. Season one and two work just fine on the same player. I returned the first Spenser Three I ordered and exchanged it for a second thinking the first copy was flawed. The second copy was just as the first. There is a warning on the back that says it might not operate in certain players that I did not find noted on the Amazon page but be that is it may, shouldn't the thrid season operate on the same machine as season one and two? Spenser For Hire is one of my favorite shows and I hope this problem can be fixed.....soon.

The series is just awesome. I am so pleased that the series has been released in the US on DVD. In Germany is a large following, but Warner Bros. would not release on DVD in Germany this series. So we must go back as Fan's the series on the American release.

I've been waiting for this show on DVD for many many years and when I received them they were everything I remember them to be. I've watched all seasons several times, it's a shame there is only 3 seasons. I think I'll start watching this season again tonight!!!!!
