I love this series. Thanks for uploading!!! Are there anymore episodes? it would be so wonderful. Thanks.

This is very cool, late 50's America. But the picture is horizontally compressed so the cars look 2-3 feet less wide.

@rodnathaniel, I understand your point, even interested in your reasoning; but if you ever become curious about the reason for the scar, I'd love to discuss it. The scar is appropriate in so many ways, I can hardly begin to list them without getting into even larger scale subject matter. It's pretty much formula, and for good reason. It's interesting that you bring up the psychological aspect, because that's just the point. It represents the seediness of the PI lifestyle, the dark world of sinister activity. It symbolizes a past of conflict, something deeper beyond the surface. It's evidence of how far he will go. And romance is more likely, because women (and men, too) love a bad guy who is actually good. Scars turn people on, it's not a deformity but rather an accent, an embellishment to the soul of a person who battled his demons and won. Chandler approved of the scar, likely satisfied that Carey really understood his character. As it turns out, the scar satisfies many characteristics and qualities of the noir genre. I encourage you to look more into characters like Marlowe or modeled after him; noir stories and film, Chandler himself, and even the scar, or other physical "imperfections" used in literature to forward or provide depth to a narrative and to a character and his/her relationships.

Phil Carey was pretty good considering the TV script. William Schallert looked the same through out his career. I think he retired because he actually started looking different. What a great actor - I think he's like 93 now.

Myself, I liked Carey and the scar. Would have liked to see more episodes

A very good serious, but undermined by the wooden as a post delivery of Philip Carey. Not surprising he ended up as third fiddle in 'Laredo'.

He actually ended up as quite a disruptor on the guiding light soap opera as Asa Buchanan. Asa from Texas was an oil baron and much married.

Having that scar on his face was a bad idea .....psycologically it's a little difficult to cheer the one who's suppose to be the hero of the show with that imperfection so obvious...and it makes romance less likely.....unlike Gene Barry in" Burks Law"
