O'Hara, U.S. Treasury
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
O'Hara, U.S. Treasury was a crime drama broadcast in the United States by CBS during the 1971-72 television season.
O'Hara, U.S. Treasury starred David Janssen as the title character, Treasury Agent Jim O'Hara. Jim O'Hara was a small town Sheriff whose wife and child died in a fire and to cut all ties with his past life he put an application in with the Treasury Department and was accepted. As a "T-Man" O'Hara was available for assignment to any of the various law enforcement agencies which were then part of the United States Department of the Treasury, all of which cooperated in this positive portrayal of their various organizations. These included the Secret Service, the Intelligence Unit of the Internal Revenue Service, the then-Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms Division of IRS, and the then-Customs Bureau. O'Hara sometimes worked undercover and sometimes overtly. Janssen was the series' only regular, as he was given a different assignment at the start of each weekly episode.
