As an interesting aside, a lot of people credit George Barris with the design, as he did the Batmobile for the other superhero show of the time. However, it was actually the great Dean Jeffries who did the work. While Jeffries is arguably the greatest customizer of his time, he was apparently a total wacko and a pain to deal with. Not that unusual amongst great artists....

Naked City
Naked City, an amazingly smart, sophisticated detective show from 1958 always ended each episode with:
"There are eight million stories in the Naked City. This has been one of them." |

Miami Vice.
Flamingos, babes in bikinis, cigarette boats (no doubt running cocaine AND bikini babes!) and Crockett and Tubbs in the Ferrari Daytona Spyder all overlaid with that great themesong! Whew! Now that's a mood-setter! Although y'all were in diapers, maybe you remember the theme to Peter Gunn. That set a mood, too. |

Yeah, baby...Peter Gunn. Mancini. 1958. Jazz. Black & White. About says it all..Detectives were "Hard Boiled", drank martinis, smoked 4 packs of Luckys a day, ate nothing but steak 'n' baked potatoes, wore sharkskin suits, women were "Dames" & knew when to keep their traps shut.

And wore stockings (real stocking, not pantyhose) and high heels. Gams.

Ditto to chili555 in re: Miami Vice. Another good one, albeit not as exciting as Miami Vice, was the tape recorder (and the tape that subsequently burned up) on Mission Impossible.
