Burke's Law - Ep 1 - Who Killed The Starlet?

[@mesicek7]

Review of the show from Daily Variety by the late Tony Scott variety.com/1994/tv/reviews/burke-s-law-1200435364/

[@bethavila9207]

This is my kind of show, and oh how I miss it! Gene Barry dancing to Bret Michaels’ music is adorable, the guest stars are a perfect combination of vintage and new Hollywood, and I love the campy one liners. Thanks for bringing me joy by sharing this! ❤

[@mirembepenny4730]

Why are all these actors and actresses so good? All in one episode? I love crime series especially if they have been acted so well! ❤❣

[@marirothbauer5407]

Watch the series Justice Series E01 - to E13. Riverting every episode is excellent best crime series great cast Victor Garber Eamon Walker. 2006 series

Wait, this version of "Burke's Law", lasted TWO seasons? COOL!

[@josephsarto689]

Maybe it would have had lasted more than two seasons of the writing wasn’t terrible

[@orbison]

It also probably didn't help, when the ratings didn't rise, that CBS might have thought, "We already have a hit show staring a 60+ star as a man who solves crimes alongside his police cop son, and it's called Diagnosis Murder."

[@mikedaniels3009]

Gene Barry, amazing voice, looks, gentlemanly, no scandals, grand screen persona all the way.

they were repeats after all, the murderer is the same no matter how many times you watch an episode, I did the same with my daughters, I could always "guess" who the murderer was😁

[@jonathanljohnson]

The simplest way to "solve" the mystery on most crime dramas has more to do with knowledge of the stars than the evidence presented. No series will ever trust the critical moment of drama. when the killer is exposed, on an unknown or lesser talent. The killer will always be someone who can spar well with the star.
