    1 9 6 1 – 1 9 6 2 (USA)
    29 x 60 minutes episodes

    Detective Steve Carella (Robert Lansing) worked at New York’s 87th Precinct, along with a line-up of typical plainclothes police detectives, such as the rookie and the seasoned old-timer.

    His deaf wife Teddy (Gena Rowlands) added a personal side to the stories.

    The series originally screened between 25 September 1961 and 30 April 1962 on NBC. It was aired on Mondays from 9:00 to 10:00 pm.

    The memorable theme tune was by Mort Stevens.

    A failed remake with Randy Quaid as Steve Carella made it to pilot stage only in 1995.

    This is what they promised us when I was a kid. What happened? 

All I have is 700 channels of rubbish on the TV in High Def, TikTok, Facebook and a phone I can take photographs with . . .
