Before shows like Supernatural there was Shadow Chasers from 1985-6............ Shadow Chasers features strait-laced British anthropologist Jonathan MacKensie (played by Trevor Eve), who is blackmailed by his department head, Dr. Julianna Moorhouse (Nina Foch) of the fictional Georgetown Institute Paranormal Research Unit (PRU), into investigating a supposed haunting involving a teenage boy (Bobby Fite) in return for a research grant.He paired up with flamboyant tabloid reporter Edgar Benny Benedek (Dennis Dugan) in an attempt to short-cut the time involved, and over Moorhouses objections. Benny and Jonathan did not get along, but managed to solve the case without killing each other. The episodes continued in this vein, with Jonathan and Benny grudgingly learning to respect and admire each other in typical Odd Couple fashion. Only nine episodes were shown in the U.S. Four others were only shown overseas on the Armed Forces network during the original run of the series. The pilot has often rerun on cable, particularly on the Mystery Channel. Here are all 13 episodes in a playlist https://youtube/playlist?list=PLQOnK94rQ8dcSKVPIsyh22OpNveAOKPql
