January 28, 2021  | By TV WW  | 173 comments
 
On this day in 1973, CBS introduced the mid-season replacement, Barnaby Jones. The series starred former Beverly Hillbillies patriarch Buddy Ebsen as a retired private detective who gets back into the business when his son, also a P.I., is murdered. Lee Meriwether co-starred as Barnaby's widowed daughter-in-law and eventual business partner.

The series ran eight seasons.

Wow, Barnaby Jones! I remember catching episodes of that show with my grandparents. It's funny how often these older detective shows involve a family connection pulling the protagonist back into the game. Buddy Ebsen was so iconic as Jed Clampett, it's interesting to see him in such a different role. My own family sometimes gets involved in my hobbies too, and that made me think about an upcoming virtual reality show with farm theme. I am excited about the crazy cattle 3d virtual reality game that may get my family involved! That show, while probably nothing like Barnaby Jones, might finally appeal to all of us. Thanks for the memory jog!

On this day in 1973, CBS premiered Barnaby Jones, starring Buddy Ebsen as a retired detective solving cases after his son’s murder. The show lasted eight seasons. It’s a bit like playing Poptropica, where each island offers a new mystery to solve and adventures to explore.

Lee Meriwether played his widowed daughter-in-law and business partner. This gripping drama remains memorable, paralleling the unique experiences of games like monkey mart, where strategy and discovery take center stage.

Barnaby Jones is a classic! It's interesting how Buddy Ebsen transitioned from the comedic world of Beverly Hillbillies to a serious detective role. Speaking of detective work, any fans of narrative-driven games like Bitlife?
