Plot Summary

Barnaby Jones was a former private eye who temporarily came out of retirement to track down the killer of his son Hal, who had taken over the family business. After bringing Hal's murderer to justice (with the assistance of fellow CBS gumshoe Frank Cannon), Jones decided retirement just wasn't his bag after all, and rehung his shingle with the assistance of daughter-in-law Betty, who ran the office and Barnaby's personal crime laboratory, and (later) young distant cousin Jedidiah, who did the cases' legwork. Written by Marty McKee

Trivia This was George Uttley's (Tom Poston) all-time favorite show in the sitcom Newhart (1982). George would often quote Barnaby when faced with a problem and he needed sage advice to solve it. See more »
Goofs It's never explained why Jedediah Romano "J.R." Jones does not carry a gun. He obviously knows how to handle a firearm as he does sometimes after taking one away from a bad guy. A law abiding citizen over the age of 21 as well as a military veteran working for a licensed private detective agency should certainly qualify for a gun permit. See more »
Movie Connections Featured in The 29th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards (1977). See more »
Crazy Credits During original broadcast run, the opening credits would follow the setup scene. Therefore the first victim was not listed among the guest stars since their character is already dead. Only in Deadline for Murder (1980) was initial victim, Alex Henteloff, included in the opening credits. See more »
