TV DVDs - Mr. and Mrs. North, based on a series of mystery novels by Francis and Richard Lockridge, aired in the early days of television, from 1952 to 1954. Watching these episodes is a glimpse into post-war America. History unfolds. As a forerunner to McMillan and Wife and Hart to Hart, Mr. and Mrs. North features the sophisticated husband and wife team of Pam and Jerry North from Greenwich Village, who work to investigate various crimes and solve them before the police do. Jerry (Richard Denning), a mystery magazine publisher, and Pamela (Barbara Britton), who maintains the more aggressive lead to Denning’s reluctant follower, are also amateur sleuths. And like the aforementioned shows, while crime and murder are being solved, a touch of humor always permeates the proceedings.
