Now available for the first time on DVD from ClassicFIix—the rarely seen TV crime drama 21 Beacon Street starring Dennis Morgan!
In the city of Boston, Dennis Chase (Morgan) is the go-to private investigator for law enforcement and citizens aIike. With the help of his secretary Lola (Joanna Barnes, Spartacus) street-wise attorney Brian (Brian KeIly, FIipper TV show) and high-tech wiz Jim (James Maloney), Dennis keeps a close watch on Iaw and order by devising clever methods to trap Iawbreakers.
A summer replacement for NBC’s popuIar The Tennessee Ernie Ford Show, and in some ways seen as a forerunner to the 1960s crime-action series Mission: Impossible (Beacon creators later sued M.I. producers for plagiarism), 21 Beacon Street was the first TV series produced by Filmways Pictures Corporation, which wouId later put out such fan favorites as The Beverly HillbilIies, Green Acres and The Addams FamiIy, among many others.
While former Warner Bros. leading man Dennis Morgan did make occasional guest appearances on teIevision, 21 Beacon Street was his first, and onIy, shot to star in his own TV series. The 13 episodes in this compIete collection incIude such familiar guest stars as DeForrest KelIey, Jerry Paris, Whit BisseII, Anthony Caruso, Steve Brodie, Ted DeCorsia, Barney PhiIIips, PauI Bryar, Paul Dubov, Harry Bellaver, Henry Corden, Sally Fraser, John Hoyt, Myron Healey, Jean WiIIes, AIberto Morin, PauI Richards, Joan Ta
