I feel a bit old

So I'm finally watching last night's Doctor Who episode (no spoilers here yet as I'm mid episode) and I was trying to figure out when it was that I first noticed Mark Sheppard as an actor.  I knew that it was before BSG or Firefly, but I couldn't quite remember what from.  Then I hit up IMDB.  Back in the late 90's there was a syndicated show (when they were all the rage) called "Soldier of Fortune, Inc.".  Sort of like "The Unit" meets "The A-Team" international-style.  I LOVED that show.  It hit all the buttons for me.  Hot guys who carried guns, blew stuff up.  A strong (if somewhat stereotyped) woman, wonderfully played by Melinda Clarke (post-Xena, pre-Firefly/Lady Heather).

Did anyone else ever watch this show?  It only lasted a couple of seasons or so.  The original lead left after the first season (I think it ran on a 12 episode season).

OMG I remember that show! It was the first show that made me really notice Melinda Clarke! I LOVED IT! I saw it right after my wild love affair with Pensacola Wings of Gold

...

Oh GOD... Mark Sheppard was on that show!!!! How is it that I didn't remember that?!?!

I seriously need to find that show and rewatch it...

I'm currently on a hunt for the show. If I find it, I'll let you know. :D

I loved my fighter pilots so much. Ice... You remember Ice? And Kenny Johnson... And Sam Anders before he was a Cylon! I think I miss the shows from the 90s. They were so uncomplicated then XD

You do that! Don't forget! That show needs rewatching!
