[post_page_title]The same frustrations[/post_page_title]
Starring in such a phenomenally successful show may sound like a dream, especially for a young actor just starting out in showbiz, but Cassidy saw things differently. He didn’t really expect The Hardy Boys to lead to a pilot, much less a full-fledged series.
“We both feel the same frustrations,” he later said in an interview about his and Parker Stevenson’s experiences working on the show. Despite questionable scripts and relatively low ratings, ABC still renewed the show – if only so no other network could steal it – which left Cassidy tied to his contract.
