Kim directed the following episodes:

• Hardcastle for Mayor
• You're Sixteen, You're Beautiful and You're His
• The Career Breaker
• The Game You Learn From Your Father
• Hardcastle, Hardcastle, Hardcastle and McCormick

After H&M, Kim gain a cult following of his own for his work on the "X-Files" and "Supernatural".

Rest in peace, Kim.

Amen to that. He was well respected by the HC&McC folks and did a terrific job on each episode he handled, as well as being just a super-nice guy (according to one of our book sources).
