Sadly I remember watching almost all of these. To Chase A Million isn't that familiar but I know I watched it once or twice.

Out of this group my favorite was Burke's Law. That was a cool show.

Anyone else remember East Side/West Side with George C Scott? Not on the list and not one of my favs but no one seems to remember it today.

Of all the old shows (non kiddie types) Peter Gunn was my fav!

FWIW I just finished watching the set of Route 66 episodes on DVD. Some of those, especially the first season, were dark! IIRC George Kennedy had a small part in the first episode.

Loved “East Side, West Side”, with music by Kenyon Hopkins. It’s not on DVD, unfortunately.

“Route 66” was also one of my faves, with music by Nelson Riddle. It only took a few decades for that to get to DVDs!

East Side/West Side aired in the 63-64 season. It was an early effort at tackling social issues of the day (and today, for that matter) but the subject matter was too dark and depressing to overcome the star power of George C. Scott and Cicely Tyson.
