Silk Stalkings - Going to Babylon television review

Throwback Tuesday takes us back to the unsolved crimes of passion in the wealthy playground of Palm Beach, Florida. A pair of suspicious deaths, involving an older man found in his car of an apparent heart attack and a dead prostitute found in her car across town, send Chris (Rob Estes) and Rita (Mitzi Kapture) into the seedier side of Palm Springs kinky underbelly in a case that will make Rita confront some personal demons. Fairly quickly the pair are able to identify the swinging couple of old man Cameron (R.G. Armstrong) and his younger wife (Deborah Rennard) as those responsible for both deaths. Neither the pair’s attempt to frame their son’s college friend (Chris Browning) for the murder not a snitch (J.C. Quinn) giving away Chris and Rita’s identities on an undercover sting will prevent the Chris and Rita from closing the case.

Silk Stalkings - Silk Stalkings television review

Throwback Thursday takes us back to the self-titled pilot episode of USA Network’s cop drama set in the wealthy playground of Palm Beach, Florida, where partners Rita Lee Lance (Mitzi Kapture) and Chris Lorenzo (Rob Estes) work crimes of passions, referred to internally by the department as “silk stalkings.” The first murder of the week involves the death of a model which leads them to the son of a wealthy businessman (Todd Eric Andrews) known for getting rough with the fairer sex. Most of the pieces of the series are put into place here including the show’s use of golf as a metaphor for sex, Rita and Chris using the nickname “Sam” for each other, the unexpected choice of Rita being the show’s narrator, and the pair’s obvious attraction but strictly platonic love for each other.
