A classic from before the prestige-TV era, The Thin Man follows a path that stands out in a crowded field. Nick Charles was a private detective who married the wealthy Nora and decided to settle down and leave the good life. Unfortunately for the couple, Nick's past frequently caught up with him and got the couple involved in mystery after mystery. The series was based on the popular MGM series of movies of the 1930's starring William Powell and Myrna Loy. Peter Lawford and Phyllis Kirk lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. The series ran for 2 seasons (1957–1959), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly.
