In my opinion, one of the best TV detective series ever produced. The second season chemistry between Lt. Trench and Orwell was the highlight of the show. Its unique use of first person narration was a most welcome part of the series and thus made it stand alone. Unfortunately, the head of the
ABC network in
1976 cancelled the show because it wasn't one of his! The ratings were excellent at the time. It's a shame that network politics was responsible for cancelling an all-time classic. One of David Janssen's best TV roles!
