{"product_id":"michael-shayne-volume-2-mod-dvd-movie","title":"Michael Shayne, Volume 2 (MOD) (DVD MOVIE)","description":"Possibly the most popular private eye in America, Michael Shayne starred in pulp magazines and dime store detective novels for close to half a century. On film, he was played by Lloyd Nolan in a series of seven features for 20th Century Fox, and then by Hugh Beaumont in five lower-budget movies made by PRC. After an unsuccessful pilot with Mark Stevens, Shayne finally made it to TV in an hour-long series that ran on NBC from 1960 to 1961. The Miami-based private eye was played by Richard Denning, the star of classic sci-fi films such as \u003ci\u003eCreature from the Black Lagoon\u003c\/i\u003e (1954), \u003ci\u003eTarget Earth\u003c\/i\u003e (1954), \u003ci\u003eDay the World Ended\u003c\/i\u003e (1955) and \u003ci\u003eCreature with the Atom Brain\u003c\/i\u003e (1955). Denning had previously co-starred in the charming series \u003ci\u003eMr. and Mrs. North\u003c\/i\u003e (1952-1954) with Barbara Britton. Other characters included Shayne's junior partner, Dick (Gary Clarke), reporter Tim Rourke (Jerry Paris) and Lieutenant Will Gentry of the Miami Police Department (Herbert Rudley). Though it lasted for only one season, the hard-boiled stories, gorgeous female guest stars, and Denning's charismatic performance make \u003ci\u003eMichael Shayne\u003c\/i\u003e an unfairly overlooked TV classic.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSPOTLIGHT ON A CORPSE:\u003c\/b\u003e After a big-shot movie producer is murdered, Shayne is hired to investigate.
