Once upon a time ABC-TV's Moonlighting was among the most buzzed-about shows in the country, thanks largely to the bravado of creator Glenn Gordon Caron, who never met a television convention he didn't want to break, and the sizzling on-screen chemistry between glamorous erstwhile film star Cybill Shepherd and a New Jersey bartender nobody had ever heard of before named Bruce Willis. This combustible blend of creative brilliance produced some of the most acclaimed, audacious, and innovative programming of the eighties. The real story of this pioneering television series and the extraordinary behind-the-scenes challenges, battles, and rewards has never been told-- until now. Author Scott Ryan conducted over twenty interviews with the actors, writers, directors, and producers who made Moonlighting such a dynamic, unforgettable show, delving deep into their thoughts and feelings as they relive this magical moment in pop culture history in this full color oral history.
