Im writing things down. One of my favorite movies The Big Sleep. Bogey brought the hard case PI to life. My appetite for reading or audible books out runs the video interest. Just me and my interests.

Colombo wasnt a private dick. He was a police detective. Not sure he qualifies for this thread.

I love just about all of them. Years ago I got into this fictional series that takes place in feudal Japan by Laura Joh Rowland. Can't put them down once I get started. Always thought they'd make great movies.

Book one.

Nick Carter P.I., Same Spade of Wildroot Cream Oil fame. Oh wait, they never made it to TV. Lamont Cranston did.

I think Crais is a dog man. The books Suspect and the promise introduced a canine cop and dog then teamed them with Elvis Cole and Joe Pike the ending of Suspect was great. Sad Rohmer has a character called Paul Harley thats interesting. They are old books set in the nineteen 20s, but arent bad. My issue with current writers are they write slower than I read. Its frustrating. 😬

I like to watch Cannons one punch knockouts. Cant remember him even getting a bruise.
Chump change.
Just the other night I saw Steven Seagal take down an entire heavily armed Jamaican drug cartel without even asking for a Band-aid.
