		Both series are the work of writers, directors and producers with long experience in the crime genre and a specific history of collaboration with their stars.
		Recent scholarship on popular culture would suggest in the broadest sense the TV detective show is part of a larger cultural project in which the conventions of genre function in part as enabling devices, their reassuring familiarity licensing an exploration of topics that might otherwise be too disturbing or threatening to acknowledge or discuss openly.
		In this the TV series embodies a great and useful truth: that culture itself is a process, a shifting, unequal, endless contention among traditional and emerging forces.

	Thrilling Days of Yesteryear : Thrilling Days of Yesteryear
		Radio’s Ellery Queen was a New York mystery writer with a talent for solving crimes, and because his methods involved the science of deduction he was often compared to an equally famous sleuth who operated out of 221-B Baker Street in London, England.
		Assisting Queen was his right-hand man was one Sergeant Velie, who often referred to Ellery as “Maestro.” Both men often relied on Ellery’s talents to assist them in cases that were too complicated for the long arm of the law.
		Ellery (Sydney Smith) must come to the rescue of a baseball team in the World Series when their star slugger’s “lucky” bat is missing.

	Movie Info for Ellery Queen on MSN Movies
		Ellery Queen (also known as Too Many Suspects) was the 78-minute pilot film for a TV series based on the fictional intellectual author/sleuth created by cousins Frederick Dannay and Manfred Lee.
		Ellery Queen was a pet project of the TV writing team of Richard Levinson and William Link (of Columbo) fame.
		After the subsequent Queen TV series expired after a single season, Levinson and Link revived the notion of a murder-solving novelist and changed the gender of the protagonist--and the result was Murder She Wrote.

	Ellery Queen: Novels 1929-1949
		Ellery Queen soon discovered that this palace of commerce was a viper's nest of fear, jealousy, suspicion, and hatred.
		Ellery Queen had a dead millionaire on his hands, two beautiful warring female hellcats on his back, and danger tightening its embrace as he put his body on the line to find out which of his two suspects was far more deadly than any male.
		It was then that Ellery Queen was invited to sup on this nightmare brew of diabolical murder and baffling mystery--in a case that made the most horrific crimes in his entire career seem like fairy tales.

	Ellery Queen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Within the novels, Queen is a writer of detective fiction, son of a police inspector and an amateur sleuth.
		In fact, Ellery Queen is not even a pseudonym for a real person, as there is no author of the series.
		The only TV series I have seen is the 1970s NBC series starring Jim Hutton as Ellery and David Wayne as Inspector Richard Queen.

	Ellery Queen Works
		Ellery Queen was one of two brainchildren of the team of cousins, Fred Dannay and Manfred B. Lee.
		Dannay and Lee chose the pseudonym of Ellery Queen as their (first) writing moniker, for it was only natural -- since the character Ellery was writing mysteries -- that their mysteries should be the ones that Ellery Queen wrote.
		Ellery Queen (actually one of the cousins, usually Dannay) would appear in public masked, as though he were protecting his identity.

	Monk - Season 2 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The series has a nice set of supporting characters including Sharona, Monk's long-suffering assistant and nurse who plays the role of the Watson to Monk's Holmes (if Watson was from New Jersey, a single mom and sassy), and Captain Stottlemeyer, Monk's former boss and pseudo-Inspector Lestrade.
		The Monk series is a nice addition to the TV tradition of quirky detectives/private investigators like Columbo, Quincy, Ellery Queen, Barnaby Jones, etc. and as series go it can be kind of addictive.
		The only down-side is that the series has only 16 episodes as opposed to the normal 20+, but each of the 16 is still better than mostly anything else you would probably see on tv, so it's still a bargain.

	Ellery Queen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Ellery Queen was the pen-name of two cousins, Manfred B. Lee and Frederic Dannay (both also pseudonyms), as well as the pen-name used by the detective himself in his alter-ego as a mystery writer (and that is pseudonymous too, according to J.J.McC., the original 'presenter').
		Ellery's logical summing-ups are meticulous and usually flawless (often beyond belief, however).
		EQ as an Anthologist and Editor: Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine is the oldest detective story magazine of this sort still published (after the demise of "Black Mask" and the like).

	Ellery Queen TV Series Companion - Jim Hutton/Ellery Queen
		After a lengthy stretch of made-for-television films, he snagged the television series we consider to be one of the greatest detective shows ever made.
		Jim played Ellery as a deep-thinking, thoughtful, respectful young man (even though he was 40 when the show started.) David Wayne played Richard Queen — Ellery's crusty police inspector dad.
		Murder, She Wrote has been called a carbon copy of Ellery Queen from the rotating field of guest stars, to the long list of red herrings, hidden clues, and wild convoluted plot turns that Jessica/Ellery would easily solve and explain by the end of the hour.

	Ellery Queen TV Show
		The Ellery Queen TV show was a crime drama series about a mystery writer who helped his father who was a detective with the New York Police Department, to solve murders.
		Ellery Queen used his brains rather than brawn to solve the crimes.
		One unique aspect of the show was that immediately before Jim Hutton (Ellery Queen) revealed the identity of the murderer, he would face the camera and ask the audience if they had figured out who had commited the crime.

	CG' favourite TV shows
		The original series proved that you could produce a serious Science Fiction show: created during the cold war, it portrayed a future were Earth was finally at peace, where science helped humanity to solve its problems, and that there could be friendly aliens.
		The TV series was only loosely based on the Ellery Queen mystery novels, and introduces some new characters as comic relief, but it was nicely done and well played by the actors.
		Not so in Japanese TV: the villains always have very good reasons to act as they do, they are seldom violent and can draw some sympathy from the unbiased viewer; and the good guys often have to decide whether to favor the company's future over a relative's happiness.

	National Reveiw reviews the Nero Wolfe Series
		Archie is a smart-aleck, tough guy, and would-be bon vivant who feels real compassion for a good many of their clients, in contrast to Wolfe's evident disdain for everyone not up to his level of intellect, which includes, of course, practically everybody.
		The series retains both the passion for the good life — elegant furnishings, Wolfe's fondness for good food and drink, stylish dress, stimulating conversations, etc. — that characterized the books, while not stinting on the action and wisecracks that made the original stories more than just intellectual adventures.
		The AandE TV series is bringing out the complexities of this relationship as effectively as the books did.

	Golden Age Mysteries - The Hutton/Wayne EQ Series
		Not a perfect TV series by any means, yet I feel it had a lot of merit.
		Certainly it is a well made series entry, and the only one which was based directly on a Queen short story (which Dannay himself considered to be their best).
		I am one of the rare minority of Queen fans who does not care for dying clues (I usually find them to be motivationally unbelievable), but this episode uses the device in a way which I find unoffensive.

		That particular series folded after a single episode, but Levinson and Link were still committed to the concept of a best-selling murder-mystery novelist who solved real murders when not at the typewriter.
		By changing the gender of their protagonist from male to female, and transforming the character from a good-looking, absentminded young pedant to a middle-aged, down-to-earth widow, the producers were able to parlay their "mystery writer/amateur detective" premise into a 13-year hit for CBS.
		While Angela Lansbury was the series' only true regular, several other characters made recurring appearances, notably her Cabot Cove friends Sheriff Amos Tupper (Tom Bosley, later replaced by Ron Masak as Sheriff Mort Metzger) and crusty general practitioner Dr. Seth Hazlitt (William Windom).
