The classic private eye series, going strong in the 1969-70 season. Mike Connors is perfect as always in the title role, as is Gail Fisher as gal friday Peggy. Each ep usually has its share of clever character byplay, fist fights, shootouts, chases, gorgeous women, and great Southern California locations. You think "Mad Men" exagerates how often folks smoke and drank in the sixties? Watch an episode of "Mannix" and you'll see people lighting up and downing straight scotch like water in practically every scene! As with the first and second season DVD sets, the transfers are top notch. Even though these eps were shot four decades ago, they look like they were filmed last week. However, there are no extras (commentaries, behind the scenes footage, etc.) which is the reason I cannot rate the set as "excellent."Read full review
Mannix is a very likable guy. He is a very good detective with connections with the police so that helps a lot. His secretary Peggy is very efficient and a deep caring woman who is a policeman widow who also has connections with the police department and that helps also. She also has a young son so the show is family oriented. It is a dated show with hippies, fast muscle cars and mod clothes . I enjoy this show tremendously and highly recommend it! Wes H.

One of my all time favorite television shows. Starring Mike Connors as the tough yet empathetic private eye Joe Mannix. The shows co-star is Gail Fisher as the smart, dedicated and pretty secretary Peggy Fair.

I loved this series when it first aired and it seems just as good and on-topic today as it did in the 1960s/1970s. Many of the old TV police and detective shows that I enjoyed back then now seem dated, but not Mannix. Well-written scripts and very good acting make the show suspenseful and enjoyable. Plus I like the cars featured in the episodes!
