Unaired TV pilot, based on the books by Rex Stout, about portly private detective Nero Wolfe (Kurt Kasznar), who employs legman Archie Goodwin (William Shatner) to hit the streets tracking down leads so that he can stay at home eating and tending to his orchids.
In this episode, "Count the Man Down", Wolfe investigates the mysterious death of a guided-missile scientist during a test launch at Cape Canaveral. Guest stars include Alexander Scourby, Frank Marth and John McLiam.
I colorized this using AI software that doesn't always
get the colors right, but I think it looks fairly natural. Hopefully a
more professional job will be done someday.

It's a pity it never went further.
This looked very promising.

Most Unfortunate
At first, it seemed the cast was poorly chosen. However, my thinking was soon re-adjusted on that point. However, I guessed the way in which the victim was murdered, instantly. It was, sadly, the basis of the episode. It was just too transparent. If the writing had been better, I do believe this program would have thrived.
