A
private detective themed show starring Buddy
Ebsen as the ageing Barnaby Jones.
A typical Quinn Martin production, at the start
of the series Los Angeles based Jones had
retired leaving his business in the hands of his
son Hal but when Hal is murdered during an
investigation Barnaby once more takes an active
role.
Hal's wife Betty also became part of the
business helping Jones on his cases.
Barnaby was a bit of a forensics wiz and had his
own special laboratory at home. Other regulars
were Lt John Biddle and Barnaby's young cousin
J.R. (short for Jebediah Romano) Jones who
ending up working with Barnaby after arriving to
ask Barnaby to solve the murder of his father.
There would be occasional crossover episodes
with fellow Quinn Martin show Cannon whilst that
production was on the air.
