    1 9 7 1 – 1 9 7 2 (USA)
    15 x 60 minute episodes

    Shattered emotionally after his wife is killed by an assassin’s bullet meant for him, veteran detective ‘Sarge’ Swanson (George Kennedy) quits the force and enters the priesthood.

    Three years later, he is ordained as Father Samuel Patrick Cavanaugh and assigned to the Saint Aloysius Parish in San Diego, California. Still referred to as ‘Sarge’, and still using unorthodox methods, he attempts to solve the problems of an urban community.

    Valerie (Sallie Shockley) is Sarge’s secretary; Kenji Takichi (Harold Sakata) is the parish athletic coach; Barney Verick (Ramon Bieri) is the police lieutenant that Sarge helps.
