Learning About Old Mystery TV Shows

By Christa Jarvis


Many years ago people could not wait to turn on their television sets on a Saturday night. This is when there were quite a few old mystery tv shows over the airwaves. Anyone could sit back and relax while tuning into these old time favorites which still can generate an audience. Viewers did not have to worry about seeing sex or violence while viewing any of these unique programs.

One elderly lady called Jane Marple was always available to help solve any type of murder or robbery. Agatha Christie published many books about this unique character who was not afraid of any situation. Whenever there was a crime committed Miss Marple would appear. A talented lady named Joan Hickson brought this character to life.

Joan lived for many years and she had been performing in England for many decades before her passing. No other actress could ever replace this brilliant woman since she had so much grace and style. Viewers were always delighted to see Miss Marple apprehend the bad guys whenever the show ended.

Human beings enjoy watching shows which focused on true life events that could happen to anyone. This is why NBC came up with a series titled "Unsolved Mysteries." Each week they were invited to solve a certain crime which happened across America. Sometimes the cases were very simple but many of them seemed to be very complicated for the police. For years Robert Stack had played on a show called "The Untouchables" and he seemed like the perfect host for this event.

A large canine called "Scooby-Doo" was very popular during the late 60's and early 70's. He was a likable mutt who always seemed to be afraid of his very own shadow. His owner was a groovy tall guy named Shaggy and he was just as greedy as Scooby. Boys all around the globe enjoyed looking at the very lovely woman named Daphne who was also featured on the program. Women who were watching this series were thrilled to see the handsome cartoon character called Fred.

The producers decided to use real life singers for the voices of Josie, Valerie and Melody on a series called "Josie And The Pussycats." All three of these girls were very pretty and they were also detectives. The viewers were treated to their singing talents on each episode and some of the recordings became big hits. One character named Alexandra is featured more on the television series than she is within the comic books. Alexandra also had magical powers in the earlier comic magazines.

"The X-Files" was a completely offbeat series which focused on supernatural events that were happening within a small crazy town. The agents on this series would try their best to investigate these happenings and sometimes the villains were actual demons.

Broadcasting stations all around wanted to syndicate this show after it had ended. Many producers in Hollywood created movies about the paranormal after "The X-Files" went off the airwaves. The series also had several movies based upon these unique characters and their unusual job.
