The crew of Babylon 5 is thrown into a state of panic when Cmdr. Sinclair rescues an alien Soul Hunter (W. Morgan Sheppard). It is well known that the alien's avowed purpose is to capture people's souls at the moment of death. Thus, each crew member is terrified that he or she will be targeted as the alien's next "catch." Also known as "Amaranth", "Soul Hunter" was written by J. Michael Stracynski; the episode first aired on February 2, 1994. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Blake Edwards, mining the same territory as in his 10, Micki and Maude, The Man Who Loved Women, and That's Life, (not to mention Blind Date), once again deals with male mid-life menopausal angst. Zach (John Ritter) is a novelist suffering from writer's block, spiraling downward in a sea of women and booze. To illustrate the depths to which Zach's life has sunk, the film begins when his mistress catches him in bed with another woman. Then his wife walks in. As a result, his wife leaves him. Things keep getting worse --his agent is dying, his house burns down, and he gets picked up for drunk driving. But in spite of his despair, he can't help chasing women, engaging in a series of bedroom misadventures with a collection of women --including a female body builder; a woman who likes to set pianos on fire; and the girlfriend of a rock star who suggests that he wear one of her boyfriend's glow-in-the-dark condoms. Helping Zach regain control of his life is Barney the lawyer (Vincent Gardenia) and Dr. Westford (Michael Kidd), a helpful psychiatrist. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

Real-life married couple Cindy Williams and Bill Hudson star as New York yuppies Lisa and Tom Burke, who moved to Arizona when both are hired by a new ad agency. The couple's boss is big on "family values" and encourages his employees to project an appropriate image. Unfortunately, the Burkes are childless, and for a while it looks as if their fabulous new job will end before it begins. But not to worry: Lisa and Tom hit upon a foolproof scheme to create an "instant" family by advertising for a pair of rambunctious youngsters to pose as the Burkes' children. Since this film originally aired as an installment of ABC's Disney Sunday Movie anthology, one can easily guess the outcome from the moment the opening credits fade from view. Help Wanted: Kids debuted on February 2, 1986. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Mark Lindsay Chapman (no relation to the murderer of John Lennon) stars in the made-for-TV The Annihilator. If the title sounds faintly reminiscent of The Terminator, it might just be more than a coincidence. The plot involves an army of mindless automatons, programmed to kill, kill, kill. Chapman plays a reporter whose efforts to halt the robot army are flummoxed by the fact that he himself is a fugitive from the law. The Annihilator premiered on April 7, 1986. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

As indicated by its title, this classic episode reunites the former stars of The Man From U.N.C.L.E., Robert Vaughn and David McCallum. Vaughn appears in his traditional A-Team role as the mysterious, manipulative General Stockwell, while McCallum is seen as Stockwell's former partner Ivan Trigorin, now a rogue agent who had sold out to the Other Side. Ivan kidnaps Stillwell and spirits him away to his headquarters at the Coastal Psychiatric Hospital, where he plans to exact a terrible revenge for Stillwell's supposed treachery. Normally, the A-Team would leave Stockwell to his fate, but if they ever hope to get a pardon, they'd better rescue him immediately--even if it requires Murdock (Dwight Schultz) to return to his former "nuttiness." The Say U.N.C.L.E. Affair abounds with clever references to its source material, right down to Stillwell beginning a radio message with "Open Channel D"! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Hunter (Fred Dryer) champions the cause of his old friend Sgt. Charlie Coster (Ramon Bieri) when the man is charged with the murder of his wife. At first it seems that Charlie was up to no good, else why would he have misfiled several recent burglary reports? As it turns out, however, it was the late Mrs. Coster who was covering up for a pair of corrupt cops who have no qualms about bumping off anyone who catches on to their dirty deeds! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Arte Johnson guests as Sydney, aka "Uncle Buckle-Up", the temperamental star of a kid's TV safety show. While working on the show as "Ruff the Bear", Hannibal (George Peppard) discovers that Uncle Buckle-Up is being threatened by shady novelty manufacturer Nick Gretsch (Art Metrano). Further investigation by the A-Team reveals that the less-than-lovable Uncle is an innocent pawn in an elaborate heroin-smuggling scheme. The climax finds a whole bunch of "modified" toys racing to the rescue, a la The March of the Wooden Soldiers. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
