Excerpt from:
Brooks, Tim, and Earle Marsh. The Complete Directory to Prime Time Network And Cable TV Shows, 1946-Present. 6th ed. New York: Ballantine Books, 1995.

The interlocking worlds of the military and big business provided the backdrop for this prime-time soap opera. Commanding officer at the Emerald Point Naval Air Station was Admiral Thomas Mallory, a widowed career military man with three beautiful young daughters -- Celia, married to brilliant military lawyer Jack Warren; Kay, who in midseason wed Glenn Matthews, a former pilot who had been discharged from the navy after being convicted of manslaughter; and youngest daughter Leslie, recently graduated from Annapolis. The local business magnate, appropriately unscrupulous, was Harlan Adams, president of Adams Industries. Harlan's son, navy pilot Simon Adams, was as honorable and good as his father and sister Hilary were bad. There was the usual mix of maneuvering for power, sleeping around, and horrible revelations about flawed characters and hidden pasts, along with the intrigue added by the military setting. Admiral Mallory's bitchy but beautiful sister-in-law, Deanna Kincaid, who wanted power and wealth, had her heart set on marrying Harlan. In the meantime she got involved with KGB spy Yuri Bukharin and when caught by naval intelligence, became a double agent. The love life of Admiral Mallory was shared with Maggie Farrell, the liaison between the town's military affairs council and the naval base. She and Mallory, who were good friends at the start of the season, were about to be married at its end. The wedding never took place, however, since she was kidnapped by a mentally disturbed David Marquette in the cliffhanger season-ending episode. Since the series was not renewed, viewers never did find out what happened.

Richard and Esther Shapiro, the creators of Dynasty, have grown wealthy on the premise that life is just a bowl of serial. This one is set somewhere on the coast of the Southern US, at the Emerald Point Naval Air Station. The man in charge is Rear Adm. Thomas Mallory (Dennis Weaver), a widower and the father of three daughters. Celia, 28 (Susan Dey), hates the Navy but is married to a Navy lawyer who likes it. Kay, 24 (Stephanie Dunnam), has eyes for a handsome young pilot, Glenn (Andrew Stevens), who -- alas -- is engaged to Hilary Adams (Sela Ward), a calculating chameleon who happens to be Kay's best friend. Then there's the youngest daughter, Leslie, 22 (Doran Clark), who has made Dad proud by graduating from Annapolis. In the pilot script there are various seductions, one murder and an indecent pinch of a tavern maid. You won't be watching it over breakfast, but this is a hot serial. Steamy, you might say.

Review by Robert MacKenzie
January 7, 1984

They "get to flying around up there and nothing but the scent of female flesh will bring them down." That was a line in the premiere of this CBS series about life at a naval air station. Some viewers must have bailed out then and there, but I know my duty.

Actually, the flyboys of Emerald Point NAS hardly ever get off the ground, what with all that female flesh thrashing about. Now and then there's a flying sequence, but most of the maneuvers are of the bedroom variety. This is what the networks like to call a "continuing nighttime drama", in other words, a soap, and almost any Emerald Point character could walk into Dynasty or Falcon Crest and be out the other side before anyone noticed.

By the unbreakable law of soap drama, we start with two prominent families, headed by Dennis Weaver and Robert Vaughn -- both playing characters conveniently single and with concupiscent offspring. Weaver plays Tom Mallory, who commands the base, but his big job is coping with the romantic adventures of his three beautiful daughters.

When I last tuned in, daughter Leslie (Doran Clark), an officer herself, was in love with a Soviet aide. Mallory doesn't like his daughter fooling with a Russki, but she blurts, "He's still a human being, with feelings and desires." Daughter Kay (Stephanie Dunnam) was in love with a handsome young pilot named Glenn (Andrew Stevens) and daughter Celia (Susan Dey) was divorcing her husband, Jack (Charles Frank), a Navy lawyer, because she's in love with another young pilot, Simon (Richard Dean Anderson). Are you still there?

Simon is the son of Harlan Adams (Vaughn), a businessman who makes shrewd deals. Harlan also has a daughter, Hilary (Sela Ward). Every soap requires at least one Conniving Witch. Emerald Point has two: Hilary, who is scheming to get Glenn away from Kay, and Deanna (Jill St. John), who wants to marry Harlan and doesn't care how she manages it. In the witch category, Hilary and Deanna seem a pretty good match; Deanna is blackmailing Hilary with sex tapes, in which Hilary appears with a man Glenn was accused of killing in a fight.

If you've followed me this far, you must be exhausted. But regular viewers are, I'm sure, pulsating with suspense. Will Celia become a hopeless alcoholic? Will Glenn find out about Hilary and the tapes? Will Maggie (Maud Adams) find her MIA husband or settle for Mallory? Will Jack find out about the time Celia and Simon spent the night in the haystack? Where do they find these haystacks?

Emerald Point has its points. Weaver is credible as Mallory, a decent cuss, weary but doggedly ethical. Sela Ward is straining at her witch mannerisms, but she has nice, disdainful eyebrows. The actors are all attractive, and there's an occasional, exhilarating burst of airplane action.

But mainly this is an attenuated sexual saga, clotted and rubbishy, and not to my taste. This may be a deficiency in me; I can stay mildly interested in my own love life, by concentrating, but can't work up much enthusiasm for anyone else's. If vicarious gropings in haystacks pep up your evening, welcome to Emerald Point NAS.

Pilot Episode #1 & 2 (#2K01 & #2K02) (2 hours)
In the premiere episode, the Admiral must contend with present and future problems relating to the incursion of a Navy aerial exercise by a Cuban aircraft and the subsequent mid-air collision that sends Lt. Simon Adams and the Cuban flyer into the drink. He also has an encounter with his old friend and sometimes adversary, Harlan Adams, while seeking a thousand acres from the City Council for an additional base runway. Adams controls the Council and is opposed to giving up the land. The Admiral then becomes involved in a serious off-the-base problem when Lt. Glenn Matthews is arrested on suspicion of murder. The death of the victim, a young man named Jeremy, vitally involves not only Matthews but his finacee, Hilary Adams, and the Admiral's daughter, Kay, as well.

Episode #3 (#2K03)
Admiral Mallory is informed by Admiral Goddard that a formal protest had been filed over the interdiction episode occasioned by the Cuban pilot who had caused young Lt. Simon Adams to crash during an aerial exercise. Now, it seems the Russians have indicated that they want to unofficially explore new rules to govern such situations. The talks are to be classified to avoid publicity and the Russian admiral, one Yuri Bukharin, will ostensibly be visiting Emerald Point's Naval Air Station as part of a delegation for cultural and informational exchange. Meanwhile, Lt. Glenn Matthews has been released to the custody of the Navy to await court-martial as a suspect in the killing of Jeremy Novak. Celia's husband, lawyer Lt. Commander Jack Warren, is mounting his defense of the young flier and is pushing hard to determine if Matthews had any motive for killing Novak.

Jill St. John makes her debut as series regular Deanna Kincaid, an ambitious Navy wife and sister-in-law to Rear Admiral Thomas Mallory. Deanna shows up as an unexpected guest at Adm. Mallory's reception for visiting Russian Admiral Yuri Bukharin and immediately makes her presence known. It's soon apparent that her brother-in-law is none too pleased by her appearance. The reception is a momentary respite for the two admirals who have begun their serious, though unofficial, talks on how best to avert future aerial incidents that could plunge the world into tragedy. It's obvious that there is little love lost between the two antagonists. There is also unexpected tragedy that strikes the Warren family just at a time when Lt. Commander Jack Warren is about to begin his court-martial defense of Lt. Glenn Matthews who has been accused of killing Jeremy Novak in a drunken brawl. The case has taken a decided turn for the worse when a witness is located who is prepared to testify that Matthew's fiancee, Hilary Adams, had indeed been having an affair with the deceased. Warren knows only too well that such testimony would provide a clear case of motive for the accused.
