Warning: Spoilers
Banacek is a series from the early 1970's, I was just a baby when it came out and didn't even know existed until 2019. I came across it while watching COSI TV, a channel that has old TV shows from the 60's, 70's 80's E.T.C.. I decided to record an episode to see what it would be like; and I loved it. It'd hard to believe it only lasted 2 seasons, because it was so interesting. Banacek is a freelance insurance investigator who works for Boston Insurance. Banacek is called on cases that involve stolen property some of those leading to murder. Banacek is good at his job and he thoroughly investigates each case. Once he finds out the person(s) responsible for the crime, he brings them all together. He reenacts the case step by step until he finds those responsible. I'm in my forties now and I love the show, so I make sure my DVR is set to record every episode. The big thing about Banacek is each episode is filled with suspense and there is never a dull moment. If you like shows like Magnum P.I., The Rockford Files, Emergency and Simon and Simon to name a few; you'll love Banacek. They just don't make shows like this anymore and that's why I think T.V. SUX mainly. If you really like the show you can buy the complete seasons on Amazon and Ebay. A great show to watch in an era were T.V. is just plain DULL.
