- Cannon is an American detective television series produced by Quinn Martin that aired from 1971 to 1976. William Conrad played the title character, private detective Frank Cannon. The series was the first Quinn Martin production to run on a network other than ABC.
Cannon was portrayed in the series as a veteran of the Korean War and a former member of the Los Angeles Police Department. He was also a widower, having lost his wife and son in a bomb attack. Conrad was a heavy-set actor, and the series, especially in its early episodes, made frequent mention of Cannon's weight. Other characters would sometimes remark critically about his size, while he himself would joke about his girth and love of food. But he was in fighting shape, and often bested villains who tried to get physical.
In total, there were 122 episodes, plus the series' two-hour pilot and a 1980 "revival" television film, The Return of Frank Cannon. The plots, as in other detective series, revolved around Cannon solving crimes for a variety of clients. In a number of early episodes, he was hired by insurance companies to investigate losses. Other episodes involved him working for people from his past. In some cases, he was forced into action to clear himself of falsified charges
Thank you for this extended theme. I've been hunting for it for quite awhile!! And as for William Conrad, A.K.A. Frank Cannon, what's not to love?? He's the best!!
A TRULY WONDERFUL MAN!!
The Ace Man brought me here.
Cannon is a fucking legend
From the pilot episode.
One of the all time greats. Cannon 4 ever
A two parter...
William Conrad also played Marshall Matt Dillon on the radio version of Gunsmoke
Yes he did Billy!
Lots of fat jokes along the way, “Wow mister, I didn’t know a guy could get so fat.” “Well son, it takes a lot of practice...”
This is the most boring intro to any television show in history. Is it about:
1) An overweight pharmacist who likes to go on leisurely walks.
2) A retiree contemplating buying a metal detector
3) A detective who walks around authoritatively but can’t chase suspects so he punches them in the mouth before they can start running.
Boo hoo always haters... let us that enjoyed watching cannon have memories. The man was a ww2 fighter pilot.... your sir are a mook
