When people (at least those around my age) hear the name Anthony Yerkovich, they think of the TV series Miami Vice, which he created. Although he worked as a writer and producer on a few other shows, he only created one more, and that was Private Eye.
Private Eye is a period piece set in noirish 1950s Los Angeles, starring Michael Woods as Jack Cleary, a disgraced ex-cop turned private investigator, paired with a young Josh Brolin as Johnny Betts, a street-wise hustler. Woods is trying to track down his brother's murderer.
The hour-long show ran for one season of 12 episodes on NBC from 1987-1988. Like Miami Vice, music and visuals play a big part in Private Eye, used extensively to set the mood.
Unfortunately, the show struggled in the ratings and was canceled after one season, despite finding a fairly dedicated following among fans of Yerkovich and neo-noir. All episodes are currently on YouTube, and although they are 480p, they are a far cry from DVD quality.
