Bonus: 4 Radio Shows on compact disc.
Starring Jim Hutton
This 1975 show ran only one season (22 episodes plus the pilot), but it was way ahead of its time. Set in the 1940's, mystery writer Ellery Queen would help his father solve baffling murder cases.
Ellery Queen was a mystery writer who assisted his father, Richard Queen, a police inspector with the New York Police Department, in solving murders. Richard Queen was played by David Wayne. Sgt. Velie was Inspector Queen's assistant and John Hillerman played Simon Brimmer a rival detective. Simon was a radio show detective who would always attempt to solve the same case Ellery was working on.(John Hill  erman later went on to work in the detective show Magnum P.I.)
Jim Hutton played Ellery Queen as a deep-thinking, thoughtful, respectful young man. Queen's methods were arcane and intellectual rather than action oriented, and he always astounded his father by arriving at a correct solution by purely deductive reasoning. In this version, just before he revealed his solution to the crime, Queen always turned to the camera and asked the TV audience if they had figured out the identity of the killer yet -- they had all the clues -- because he was about to reveal the correct killer as we met the entire slew of suspects in one room for the ending.
Now you too can solve the cases with the Ellery Queen DVD Set! All 23 Episodes, which includes the pilot are available in the 6 DVD Set. As an added bonus, we've included 4 Radio Shows on standard audio CD. Now you can solve murders from the safety of your car, on your way to work, or at any CD Player!
