Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for crime-drama fans and anyone who likes to be kept guessing. If you loved Castle or Elementary, start here.
The mood
Tense, dark and gritty.
The pace
1 season: a few weeks of evenings, short, snackable episodes, about 14 hours in all.
What might put you off
  • Rated TV-PG. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
  • Made in 1959: an older pace and style.

Jazz pianist Johnny Staccato supplements his meager musician's income by working as a private detective. The background for many of the episodes is his friend "Waldo's" jazz club in New York City's Greenwich Village, featuring performances by the Pete Candoli jazz combo which included Barney Kessel, Shelly Manne, Red Mitchell, Red Norvo and Johnny Williams. The theme was composed by Elmer Bernstein.
