My dad, and my cousin were Manfred B. Lee and Frederic Dannay, the writing team that between 1929 and 1971 created Ellery Queen. and his world in novels, short stories, editorials, and "Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine". Some really bad movies were made about Ellery, and the year Dad died, the Ellery TV show debuted. He and Dannay had nothing to do with the show's scripting or casting, but I think David Wayne in the role of Ellery;s dad was perfect casting.
One of the final repeats of the show before it left the air for good, sadly. "Ellery Queen" was a terrific show that deserved to last longer than it did.
I always liked Don DeFore. A genuinely nice man, a family man, who simply viewed his acting as work, his way of making a living and nothing more.
Thanks for letting this 70's TV series once again have the opportunity to be seen by people who appreciate quality productions!
I loved Ellery Queen.. very sad Jim Hutton passed so young very good actor. Thanks for posting..👍
Ellery Queen was one of my favourite shows back in the day.. watched every episode. And then before l knew it it was cancelled .. l remember l was so upset ...
This was 1976. I realise adverts are not a true portrayal of real life, but watching the adverts, I was left shell shocked. What has happened to the United States in this short space of time (1976-2024). Yes, it's 48 years, but that's nothing relative to US history.
Miss this show and Jim Hutton. My husband and I watched this every Sunday night and ordered pizza in.
I loved this show !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This was like Murder She Wrote 1976.
Did anyone recognize Mr B from the TV show Hazel?
I have the series on DVD. My family and I used to watch it when it was on TVLand in the mid-to-late 1990s, and I loved it! My dad was upset when Jim Hutton died at such a young age of liver cancer; he was only about 46 years old.
I guess NBC didn't want people thinking. I was very young when this show was on. But my aunt would watch Ellery Queen with us and would always get it right.
I love those short commercial breaks and the commercials themselves were way more entertaining than those we have today that range from absurd to zzzzz-stupid.
Loved every minute of it I think I was probably 14 or so when I watched the original.
What a blast from the past! I remember sitting with my dad who always figured out the murderer. This Ellery Queen was definitely a classic in my book.
This and "Nero Wolfe" (Maury Chaykin/Timothy Hutton {Jim's son}) were both very well done (and unfortunately short lived}, period pieces.
I loved this show. Smart, intelligent, and a great cast.
Oh my goodness!!!! My first Ellery Queen episode on this channel has Vincent Price in it, way to go!!!!!!
I can remember being annoyed at all the commercials. Now I am sitting here watching them because it’s nostalgic. lol
This series is really quite good, with great characters, cameo actors and intricate plots. I actually enjoyed this video, with all of the commercials in it too.
