The differences in the way they did their job and the basic goodness of the two cops really made this show for me. I loved them bantering back and forth and still getting things to come out good in the end. Their chemistry was wonderful.moreless

I loved Houston Knights, and would love to see it on dvd. The differences in their personalities and the way they did their jobs really kept me watching.
Each had different strengths and outlooks but learning to work together was one of the mainstays of this show. I would love to see it again.
