Never a huge fan of Season 5 but Summer of 69 certainly ranks as one of the best in the series.

I'm not a fan of season 5 either. There are a few good episodes in it but on the whole I don't think it's as good as the earlier ones. Summer of 69 certainly is a great episode.

Go to bed Frank or this is going to get ugly .

TOP 5 FAVORITE SEASON 2 EPISODES
1 - CROSS YOUR HEART AND HOPE TO DIE
Sad episode with great characters. Fell in love with Andrea Marcovicci.
2 - THE BETRAYAL
Excellent all round episode. Great support from Paul Anka and Richard Romanus.
3 - SLAY RIDE
Fine episode and story about revenge.
4 - HUSH NOW, DON'T YOU DIE
Another solid episode. This one dealing with rape.
5 - ACTS OF DESPERATE MEN
Good story. Actors Eugene Roche and Bruno Kirby are very good.

Honorable mention, ELEGY IN AN ASPHALT GRAVEYARD. Excellent episode and Telly Savalas is on the soundtrack with a memorable song, Azure Dee.
