The Good and the bad.

This was a cute little show. Michael Shayne was Played by two different radio actors during the shows run. Wally Maher and Jeff Chandler. I think Wally was miscast. His voice was to goofy sounding to be the voice of a great detective. He sounded like should be doing a comedy show instead of a detective show. He was to chipper and happy to be a hard boiled detective. I couldn't take him serious, and don't get me started on his sidekick and love interest. Jeff Chandler was an improvement. His voice was made for a hard boiled detective and he didn't have an annoying sidekick. He did have Jack Webb before he was Joe Friday on Dragnet, playing another no nonsense detective.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
