I also loved the Mystery Movie of the Week (McMillan & Wife, etc.)
I loved the Perry Mason movies! My dad and I used to watch them together.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Conrad was also in the first Nero Wolfe series, with Lee Horsley as Archie. And Horsley had his own series later. Tim Hutton played Archie in the second Wolfe series, and Jim Hutton played Ellery Queen.

Well, for heaven's sake! How could we forget the original PM???? Yeah, it was reruns when I was watching, but it's like the grandaddy of them all, that every courtroom drama, inlcuding all the L&O's are based on.

Hamilton Berger was no Jack McCoy.
My mom watched PM all the time in the sixties. I never really watched until the movies came out.

I loved McMillan and Wife. In that era, my fondest hope was to become Susan St. James.
The first several years of Magnum has some really strong scripts. "Did You See the Sunrise?" was particularly memorable. Then it became silly, as did Remington Steele.
Is there no Miami Vice love?

When I was in high school/college, there was much, much Miami Vice love. Trust me.
