Throughout the series, the Harts navigated the treacherous waters of high-stakes crime-solving, often finding themselves in the midst of intricate webs of deceit and corruption.

Frakes' involvement in Hart to Hart not only showcased his impressive acting skills but also demonstrated his ability to bring depth and nuance to his characters. His portrayal of Jonathan Hart, a charismatic and intelligent businessman, was particularly noteworthy, as he brought a sense of gravitas and authority to the role.

The success of Hart to Hart can be attributed in large part to the talented cast, including Frakes, who delivered standout performances throughout the series.
