Private eye drama that was an attempt by both ABC and Warner Brothers to strike gold a second time after the success of
77 Sunset Strip.
Bourbon Street Beat was basically
77 Sunset Strip set in New Orleans and starred Andrew Duggan, Richard Long, and Van Williams as a trio of private eyes. Despite lasting only one season, some of
Bourbon Street Beat's characters lived on afterwards. Rex Randolph (played by Richard Long) would later join the cast of
77 Sunset Strip whilst Kenny Madison (played by Van Williams) would turn up on
Surfside 6.
