This television crime drama series was broadcast on ABC from October 10, 1958 to February 7, 1964 for six seasons and 206 episodes.
The stories involve the two main characters, Stu Bailey and Jeff Spencer, former government agents, who now have their own private detective firm. The series was a more light-hearted take on detective programs, with comic elements introduced in the characters of Kookie, the parking attendant at the restaurant next door to their office, and Roscoe, always ready to recommend a good bet at the racetrack.
The list of guest stars appearing on the program includes Ellen Burstyn, William Shatner, Robert Conrad, Dyan Cannon, Adam West, Peter Breck, Troy Donahue, Chad Everett, and even baseball legend Sandy Koufax.
