49 years ago TODAY, the morgue moved to primetime when “Quincy, M.E.” premiered on NBC in 1976! It started as a part of the Sunday Mystery Movie block and became a weekly staple for eight seasons, with Jack Klugman as a medical examiner who turned his autopsies into clues for the police. Also just known as “Quincy,” it was the first American show to really feature forensic evidence, long before it became a hallmark on shows like “CSI” and “NCIS.” #nostalgia #tvhistory #70s #70stv #70sthrowback |
