Plot Summary for
"Cannon" (1971) More at IMDbPro »

The weekly adventures of Frank Cannon, an overweight, balding ex-cop with a deep voice and expensive tastes in culinary pleasures, who becomes a high-priced private investigator. Since Cannon's girth didn't allow for many fist-fights and gun battles (although there were many), the series substituted car chases and high production values in their place. Written by Marty McKee {mmckee@wkio.com}

Most clients paid dearly for the services of Detective Cannon. The high fee underwrote his expensive lifestyle. Fine food left him too overweight to fight anybody, so he mostly drove around Los Angeles in his Continental. Written by Ed Stephan {stephan@cc.wwu.edu}
