Cannon

Season 2 (24 Episodes)

5 Seasons 1972 PG 1h 00m 6.8

Frank Cannon, a husky ex-cop and culinary enthusiast, solves tough cases as a private investigator.

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.
