... Pioneers of Television

8/7c PBS

Remarks from Mike Connors (Mannix), Bill Cosby and Robert Culp (I Spy), Angie Dickinson (Police Woman) and James Garner (Rockford Files) accent this delightful, more than "just the facts, ma'am" look back at yesteryear's groundbreaking crime dramas (Dragnet included). Connors, for example, remembers how the pace of his innovative PI program was patterned after commercials; and Culp recalls standing up for acting newcomer Cosby, who the producer wanted to dump after the first I Spy episode, by insisting that if Cos went, he would follow.
