Dave & Maddie | “Moonlighting”

Moonlighting is a popular series in the 1980s, getting credits for being one of the successful pioneers of the dramedy genre. The show followed the adventures of the Blue Moon Detective Agency, made up of Dave Addison, played by Bruce Willis, and Maddie Hayes, portrayed by Cybill Shepherd. People tuned in for the palpable chemistry between the two private detectives as they solved dozens of cases together.

The two initially met when Maddie, a former model, went bankrupt, and she stumbled upon Dave’s dwindling detective agency, City of Angels. Dave eventually convinced Maddie to help him run the agency as a partner, which they would later rename Blue Moon. Willis has earned millions in the industry, starring in dozens of blockbusters throughout his career. However, many consider Moonlight the show that propelled him to considerable popularity during his early years.
