It's dated, of course, and the stories are pretty much
standard P.I.
fare, but there's something about how everything ties
together, making
it better than just the mere sum of its parts, that
makes for
enjoyable (if not always essential) viewing. This is
probably ground
zero for the TV eye genre -- the pure hard essence of
it. Other show
may rise far above it or sink far below, but you can
deny MANNIX its
absolute pureness. And has there ever been a male on TV
so alpha as
Joe Mannix?
