Regular Shows:
The Cheaters (1960 - 1962, 39 episodes)
The Cheaters is a series produced in the UK, about John Hunter (John Ireland), an insurance claim investigator, who, needless to say, runs into some tricky cases. Co-starring are Robert Ayres, Ann Hanslip, Valentine Dyall, Reginald Marsh, and Colin Tapley.
Cassie and Co. (Jan. 1982 - 1982, 13 episodes)
Starring Angie Dickinson as beautiful ex-police officer, now private detective, this series of hour-long episodes was very short-lived. John Ireland, A Martinez, Alex Cord, and Dori Brenner were regulars for the thirteen episodes.
