Are these TV sleuths police detectives or private investigators?
Do you have an eye for private eyes?
Though most new detective series are about police investigators, many classic programs followed private sleuths solving all kinds of mysteries. Shows like Hawaii Five-O and Magnum, P.I. give it away in the title, but for others, it can be hard to remember which ones are about actual cops.
How well do you know classic TV detectives? Try to guess which of these sleuths are on the force and which ones aren’t!

missed ironside didn't remember show that well
Ironside was a tricky question! Robert T. Ironside was San Francisco Police Department Chief of Detectives (pilot). Shot in the back, and paralyzed, he was given Disability pension, but VOLUNTEER as a consultant for SFPD. Thru various scams, he lived at the police HQ, was given a Police Van for a personal vehicle, and his staff were all police employees
Did culumbo ever loose a case???
The opening of Columbo showed the murder being committed, and the murderer was clearly identified! You watched the crime being solved, but you already knew Columbo was after the right guy!
* Columbo never lost a case but once didn't make the arrest when he learned the killer was terminally ill and had not long to live!
Only got 1 wrong.
Loved these shows ❤
