Quincy, ME

* photo from imdb.com

In the late seventies, there was a TV show which featured a different series each week on a rotating basis--McCloud (Dennis Weaver), McMillan & Wife (Rock Hudson and Susan St. James), Banacek (George Peppard), Columbo (Peter Falk) and of course, Quincy, Medical Examiner (Jack Klugman).  Quincy, ME was the forerunner of forensic medicine TV shows like Crime Scene Investigators, and I loved the process of how the doctor would unlock the mystery.  I liked it best; for me Columbo was just another cop show that derived the solution from a detective's point of view, but in contrast, Quincy focused on the medical evidence, which was something new to me at that time.  Of course, I loved the quizzical, disbelieving, don't-bullshit-me look that Jack Klugman would make, as you can see in the picture above!
