DVD Review: Cannon: Season Two, Vol. 1: Cannon: Movies & TVCANNON on DVD,

By M. Burkert “VINTAGE TV FAN” (Butler, PA) -

  

Every season of Cannon is beyond excellent. Of all of the crime drama’s of this era, this one was definately the best. I had hoped for years that they would release Cannon on DVD, I am glad they did. However, I also think that it’s a joke to not have released these as full seasons, double dipping in this economy is just shameful… That being said I will still buy it and be happy to see this wonderful program again after all of these years. If you haven’t seen Cannon and “if you can afford it” buy these sets, as you will love this show!

no volumes please,

It’s okay if this “review” is taken off soon, but I have to say this to dvd companies: DON’T do volumes of seasons. Do complete seasons. Really. It is POSSIBLE. Other shows do COMPLETE seasons. There is NO reason for this.

Conrad’s Urbane, Gourmet Private Detective Comes To DVD,

By Terence Allen (Atlanta, GA USA) -

William Conrad had been around for quite some time before he became best known for being private eye Frank Cannon in the Quinn Martin television series, “Cannon.” He had been an actor, producer, and director for movies and television shows, and was best known for three programs that used his voice only - being the voice of Matt Dillon on the radio version of “Gunsmoke,” the narrator of the classic cartoon series “The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle,” and the narrator of another Quinn Martin series, “The Fugitive.”

When Martin looked for someone to play an overweight, but very capable private eye in Cannon, he could have picked a better actor than Conrad. Even though he was best known for his vocal talents, Conrad made Cannon a flesh and blood character - charming, humorous, compassionate, and on occasion, violent. For once, Conrad had a chance to show as much talent on camera as he had off camera. And with Martin’s penchant for creating solid detective dramas, Cannon became a very popular series.

Conrad would have other notable gigs after Cannon, the emcee of CBS’ Thanksgiving Day festivities, the DA in “Jake and the Fatman,” and for too brief a time, “Nero Wolfe,” but he will always be remembered at the portly detective who drove a Mark IV, had a car phone (very rare at the time), and who knew as much about cooking as he did the law.
