Overview
The series starred Jack Warden as Harry Fox, a free-spirited private detective who lived by his wits and John Rubinstein as his high-strung attorney son Harrison who unwillingly and frequently found himself dragged into his father's cases.
The show's opening would always feature Harry and Harrison talking on the phone in their offices like this:
- Harrison: Hello?
- Harry: Harrison, I need your help.
- Harrison: Dad, you keep forgetting. I'm a lawyer. You're the detective!
- Harry: Aw, come on son. All I need is a ride. What could possibly happen?
