Silk Stalkings

Anyone remember this show from the 90s ?

Man worth a rewatch purely for the underwear scenes !

e.g.

Carrie Ann Moss

Re: Silk Stalkings

Wasn't this first on a network (I want to say CBS or NBC?) who had a weird Summer promotion of late night "sexy" programming (which were mostly Canadian shows) , which included "Nick Night" and it was under the banner "Too Hot to Sleep"?

I never watched much of the show but as a pre-teen always thought of it as PG Red Shoe Diaries, but probably just due to the clothing specific nature of the title.

Yes, this was CBS's "Crimetime after Primetime" show. I think it jumped to cable later in its run, though.

Re: Silk Stalkings

I didn't know there was a show Rob Estes was on for so long before Melrose Place

It's really not that explicit sexually at all, especially by today's standards but the whole show just has a stylish sexy vibe

Monday Night Raw always sounded great. When I finally saw it I was a little disappointed.

Yes. This and Forever Knight were the only two shows from that to survive and last more than once season. I never watched the show because I was too young to really understand it or hold my interest but man, was that intro sexy. I remember just watching the intro constantly when I was a kid.

Nothing like PG-13 sex scenes, spandex, mini skirts and garter belts for all the horny pre-teens who watched this back in the early 90's.

I was in High School and in college when this aired, but never really watched it regularly. Let's just say it was good for it's time, but is super dated compared to today's standards.

Re: Silk Stalkings

Agree that the show is nothing compared to current TV, but at least long legs and sexy underwear never go out of style.

I remember going rollerblading one time (yep, this was the 90s all right) and skating right by a shooting session for the show. They were between takes, and I'm pretty sure I saw Mitzi Kapture just waiting around.

Re: Silk Stalkings

I worked on set a few times and once got to see some bare boobies during a shower scene. Sat with Carl Weathers one time while crew were setting up.

Did he give you acting/craft services advice?

He did a lot of reading the news paper from front to back while things were getting ready.
The work I did then was to apply opaque film on mirrors so they could eliminate the camera out of the shot.

Mitzi was indeed nice to look at. She seems to have been afflicted by some disease in recent years, given her current appearance.

Even if there were photos, we're talking early to mid '90s. Real film, not digital, so no uploads.

Scanners still exist.

I remember commercials for this show as part of USA's Up All Night block. I never realized it was on network TV before. I had always thought it was a USA original program.

Re: Silk Stalkings

There were always signs in place that said NO CAMERAS posted everywhere like WET PAINT signs.

Always enjoyed working on set though for this show and Renegade. It wasn't about celebrity but more of just seeing how everything works to make it happen.
