Scarecrow and Mrs. King: Stemwinder: Part 1 (1986)
Season 4, Episode 1
5/10
Beginning of the End

What is it with romantic comedy/aventure shows? On Remington Steel they "didn't" and it died in five seasons. On Moonlighting they most emphatically "did" and it lasted five seasons. But Pierce Brosnan was brought back for the moribund fifth season of Remington Steel to keep him from being Bond while the flakier Moonlighting was a dead man walking all during its dreadful fifth.

Scarecrow and Mrs King was fun for three seasons but the fourth season found it in a new and unfriendly time slot and a radically different direction for its story. And it crashed and burned.

Beginning with this episode Scarecrow goes on the outs with the Agency and goes on the run with Amanda. Why mess with success?
