marzy dotes I remember this show and watched it for most of its run. Thought it was a well done western that was about the importance of family without being a family show as there was too much violence and threatened violence for that billing.Loved the supporting characters even though they pretty much took Ethan for granted most of the time until they needed his gun slinging powers. His relationship with Amelia which began as a friendship born of circumstances into a romance was probably the best part of the show as the actors clearly had great chemistry and the characters meshed well together.Season three just seemed like an ill-fated attempt to jettison what really worked about the show which was its emphasis on families and decisions about raising a family plus the romance (in favor of violence in an ill-fated attempt to lure in younger male viewers) and when Amelia left town abruptly, it had lost most of what was compelling to watch at that point.But I like how it was rough around the edges and not all neat and tidy like Dr. Quinn or the Young Riders.
Simon P. Beyer "Paradise"/"Guns Of Paradise" aired on Danish television around 1990. I remember it clearly. I was about 10 years old back then and I loved to watch the series. I think the main reasons why it is so memorable are the characters (especially Ethan Cord), the atmosphere, the music and the fact that the series deals with basic human spirit - general topics like love, hate, responsibility, challenge, adventure, etc. All those things that every person can relate to.There was just something very special about the whole thing. I was never much into westerns, but this one just touched me deeply. I regret to say that all I have on tape are four episodes from the final season and part of one episode from season two. I used to have more episodes on tape, but I must have erased them when I was younger. I remember the episode "The Plague" - I remember something about a violent fight between Tiny and Ethan in that episode. Am I right? I also slightly remember the character of Johnny Ryan...I would love for the series to be released on DVD someday. I dunno if it'll ever happen, but it would be great. It was for sure the best series I ever caught. I watch the four episodes I have on tape occasionally. It's a tremendous joy. :-)
ritschmitt Paradise was my all-time favorite television series. I can't exactly explain why. It was all the characters. They were all so real to me. I was only able to tape 10 of the episodes. It was a particularly turbulent time in my life. Now, I have begun a search to find copies of all of the 56 episodes. Or, wouldn't it be wonderful to see the series return to television? I don't know what the process is to make these things happen. However, I am the eternal optimist. Are there others out there who share my feelings that this show is very important. Perhaps we could pool our ideas together and take the necessary steps toward that goal. Does anyone have copies of the episodes of the show that they would be willing to share? I am open to all suggestions. Please let me know. Thanks, Warm Regards, Rita Schmitt
gemsky75 Hi! I do have to agree this was the best western series and the best part was that it was family friendly. I have seen every single episode when it was aired on CBS as well Family Channel. I use to have all 50 some episodes on VHS, but sadly, down the years, my mom tossed them. I've been looking for it on DVD and to this day, it still hasn't been released. I love that movie that they made when Lee Horsely was at the Prison. I guess we will have to wait patiently for the DVD release. There was another TV show on back 98 which I am not sure if you caught it or not, but the "Magnificent Seven" is a really good show too. It reminded me a lot of "paradise" show. The first season just got released on DVD. I bought it like three days ago and couldn't stop watching it till the end. I started watching it second time started today. But sadly, the show got canceled after season 2. You might want to check that out if you haven't.
