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. .com With his impressive girth and balding pate, no one will mistake insurance investigator Frank Cannon (William Conrad) for, say, Jim Rockford, or any other of TV’s more conventionally handsome PIs. But with his imposing size and resonant growl of a voice, Cannon could throw his weight around with the best of them as he so ably demonstrates in these 13 episodes that concluded Cannon's impressive first season. The pipe-smoking gourmand has a style all his own. In one episode, he quotes famed critic Alexander Wolcott’s classic bon mot that everything he likes is either "illegal, immoral, or fattening." But underestimate him at your peril; The tough-talking Cannon can dish it out as well. He threatens an uncooperative biker in "Devil’s Playground" with hospitalization, and in "Death is a Double Cross," he nimbly gets the drop on a hit man. Cannon’s salary is as ample as he is, but he doesn’t let that influence his investigation. To an acquaintance who wants Cannon to learn the truth about her husband’s death (which the insurance company has ruled a suicide), he states, "The truth is like rain. It doesn’t care who gets wet." He is also thorough. "When I look at a picture straight on and don't get it, I try looking at it sideways," he tells another client. Cannon boasts solid writing ("Double Cross" is adapted from the Thomas B. Dewey novel, Every Bet’s a Sure Thing) and some great guests before they were stars. Martin Sheen is featured in "Devil’s Playground" as a vengeful disabled ex-cop who wants Cannon to help him prove that the supposedly dead thief who shot him during an armored car robbery actually faked his demise (this episode also costars future Hill Street Blues costars Daniel Travanti and James Sikking). Just as Cannon performs a fireman’s carry on one injured party, so does Conrad bear the weight of this tailor-made series that provided the character actor (who voiced Matt Dillon on the radio incarnation of Gunsmoke) with a long overdue leading role. --Donald Liebenson ## Product Details - **Format:** Closed-captioned, Color, Full Screen, Multiple Formats, NTSC - **Contributor:** William Conrad - **Language:** English - **Number Of Discs:** 4 - **Runtime:** 11 hours and 2 minutes ## Images ![Cannon - Season One, Vol. 2 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51dTwAGxOrL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HAS CC CLOSED CAPTIONING *by A***R on July 29, 2023* Set played well so it was worth the money. Great for Cannon fans . Best of all it has CC CLOSED CAPTIONING ### ⭐⭐⭐ Sample case of Frank Cannon, P.I. *by R***. on May 22, 2009* In this 1971-76 crime drama, William Conrad (Marshall Matt Dillon on "Gunsmoke" and narrator for TV's "The Fugitive" and "Rocky & Bullwinkle") plays moustache, rotund, pipe smoking private investigator Frank Cannon. The 13 episodes in this 4 disc set include "To Kill a Guinea Pig" with Vera Miles as a doctor being intimidated into accepting a prison inmate she formerly rejected for a medical research experiment. The intimidation includes the horrifying discovery the villains have killed a monkey by hanging. The gruesome scene is shown in silhouette. John Rubinstein, son of Classical concert pianist/composer Arthur Rubinstein, plays a cult leader in "A Deadly Quiet Town". Martin Sheen is a disable ex-cop in "Devil's Playground", a role he later reprises in "A Flight of Hawks". Frank Cannon was not only a detective, he was also a food connoisseur. In "The Island Caper", Cannon uses an electric fan to aid in preparing Peking duck. 1970's TV detective buffs should fare quite well with this DVD set. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Old Favs *by O***R on November 3, 2011* This was the best ever it brought back times when tv was great. Good clean tv when you knew the good guy was going to win. Not like the shows of today where you know the plot already. Old tv had great old actors who had movie, and acting training not like now. I buy these old shows because I grew up on them my parents loved old tv very much. My parents are gone but I remember them though old tv shows. And it makes me smile when I think back of them and their old tv shows. Thanks for the memories. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/5619144-cannon-season-one-vol-2](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/5619144-cannon-season-one-vol-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-01*
