Premise: During its run, this mid-'80s take on Mickey Spillane's hard-boiled PI lost its sexist slant (so as to attract more female viewers), but there was still ample violence. The show's title changed from `Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer' to `The New Mike Hammer' in 1986; production in the 1984-85 season had been halted because of the drug arrest of star Stacy Keach, who, a decade later, reprised the role in a syndicated version.
