banacek

Banacek (part of the NBC Mystery Movie series of the 1970s) was a short lived light hearted detective TV series on NBC from 1972 to 1974. George Peppard played Thomas Banacek, a Boston-based freelance investigator who worked mostly for insurance companies in solving seemingly impossible theft cases. The show had a mixture of humor combined with rather intricate plots that never generated the ratings needed to keep it on the air. Banacek's catch-phrase was, "There's an old Polish proverb that says ...". Also featured were Ralph Manza as Banacek's chauffeur Jay Drury, Murray Matheson as rare-bookstore owner Felix Mulholland, and Christine Belford as Carlie Kirkland.
