television writer Sidney Sheldon. The series concluded after five
seasons on May 22, 1984, but was followed by eight made-for-television
movies, beginning in 1993.The premise of the show is summed up in the

Season 2 onward, the opening lines were slightly changed:Jonathan Hart

based in Los Angeles. His wife Jennifer (Stefanie Powers) is a
freelance journalist. Living the jetset lifestyle, the Harts often
find themselves involved in cases of smuggling, theft, corporate and
international espionage and, most commonly, murder. At their opulent
Bel Air estate, they are assisted by Max (Lionel Stander), their
shared mansion's loyal, gravel-voiced majordomo, who also helps with
their cases. The Harts's beloved pet dog is a Löwchen called Freeway,
so named because he was a stray that they found wandering on the
freeway. The Harts own a Mercedes-Benz 300 TD diesel wagon, a dark
green Rolls Royce Corniche convertible (replacing the Series III
Bentley custom cabriolet in the first season), and a yellow
Mercedes-Benz SL roadster (1979 450 SL, replaced by a 1981 380 SL)

"1 HART" respectively. The opening credits sequence (stock footage
drawn from the series pilot) also shows Jonathan Hart driving a red
Dino 246 GTS. They also own a Grumman Gulfstream II private jet, which
is featured at the start of the opening credits.
