After years of fans wanting and waiting, our patience has finally been rewarded! This 662-minute DVD set brings all 13 the episodes as originally broadcast, in full screen video and English mono sound. They are also closed captioned. It's being released by CBS/Paramount, and while I've not yet seen the set, it's reportedly been carefully remastered, and contains all of the original musical cues.
Buddy "Beverly Hillbillies" Ebsen plays the tile role, while Lee "Batman, Time Tunnel" Meriwether portrays his daughter-in-law, Betty Jones. Barnaby heads his LA firm, while Betty provides him with invaluable assistance.
The Classic TV detective series aired on CBS from Jan. 28, 1973, to April 3, 1980. It premiered as a midseason replacement show, shaking up the CBS lineup by taking the timeslot of the Iconic Classic TV detective series Mannix, pushing it back to air one hour before the new kid on the block. Because of that, there were fewer episodes produced in its first season.
The Barnaby Jones character was introduced in 1973 in an episode in the third-season of the Classic TV detective series, Cannon, entitled, "The Deadly Conspiracy." The two-part episode began on Cannon and concluded on the premiere of Barnaby Jones with "Requiem for a Son."
An aging Barnaby had decided to retire and had left the private investigation business to his son, Hal. The now-grieving Barnaby decides to take the advice of his friend, Frank Cannon (William Conrad, in the cross-over from the show Cannon), to come out of retirement and solve the case in the pilot episode, "Requiem for a Son." His widowed daughter-in-law, Betty, joined forces with him to solve the case of her husband's murder.
At the conclusion of the case, the pair decided that they had worked together so well that they would continue to keep the detective agency open.
Until the cancellation of Cannon, the characters of both series moved back and forth between the two shows, an unique arrangement and a first for TV
Jones was also unusual, ordering milk in restaurants and bars, countering the stereotypical hard drinking detective. (Ironically, Ebsen was to disclose that he had struggled with alcoholism for decades.)
In 1976, the character of J. R. Jones, portrayed by Mark Shera, was introduced. J.R. was Barnaby's cousin. He had come to LA to try to solve the murder of his father, but stayed to help Barnaby and Betty, while also attending law school.
Barnaby was quite astute, noticing clues most other P.I.'s or the police had missed. Because of his age, Jones knew he would be bested in a fistfight with the criminals he pursued, so he used other means to protect himself, like slamming a door on the hand of a gun-carrying thug!
First season episodes collected here are: Requiem for a Son; To Catch a Dead Man; Sunday: Doomsday; The Murdering Class; Perchance to Kill; The Loose Connection; Murder in the Doll's House; Sing a Song of Murder; See Some Evil, Do Some Evil; Murder-Go-Round; To Denise, with Love and Murder; Little Glory, a Little Death; and Twenty Million Alibis.
Guest stars during the series were a virtual who's who of the acting talent of the day, including: Conlan Carter, Gary Lockwood, Stefanie Powers, Wayne Rogers, William Shatner, Leslie Nielsen, Richard Anderson, Claude Akins, Carl Betz, Meredith Baxter Birney, Bill Bixby, Jack Cassidy, Geraldine Brooks, Richard Bull, Dabney Coleman, Jackie Coogan, Glenn Corbett, Cathy Lee Crosby, Meg Foster, Anne Francis, Lynda Day George, Richard Hatch, James Hong, Claudia Jennings, Margot Kidder, Geoffrey Lewis, Ida Lupino, Roddy McDowell, George Maharis, Nick Nolte, Jessica Walter, Lynn Hamilton, Jon Cedar, Paul Sorenson, Roddy McDowall, and Gary Owens.
Let's hope the remaining seasons are promptly released!
I wanted to comment on the review where it was stated that first episode of "Barnaby Jones" was a two part episode where the first half half was on "Cannon". That is not true, originally "Barnaby" was suppose to be a spin-off of "Cannon" but then the network changed its mind and they redid the first episode to just have William Conrad be a guest star on the first episode of "Barnaby Jones". There is however a two part episode several seasons later called 'Deadly Conspiracy' that starts out on "Cannon" and then continues on "Barnaby Jones" so I am sure that is what the reviewer is thinking about. I just want to mention this in case people read his review and think they will be missing something if they haven't seen the first part on "Cannon", no need to worry the first part was not on Cannon.
I didn't start watching "Barnaby Jones" until the 5th season when Mark Shera joined the show. After watching the 5th-8th seasons over and over and over I decided a few years ago it was time to see the first season to see how the show got started. Just the acting alone from Lee Meriwether and Buddy Ebsen in the pilot was enough to make me want to see all of the first season and I wasn't disappointed. The storylines and guest stars are great. I am really looking forward to getting to see the episodes from the original broadcast instead of the versions from syndication.
Since I wrote my review I have received my set and I am just amazed at the great job they did remastering these episodes. They look so clear that I am seeing things I never saw before. The scenery in these episodes is stunning, you can tell they didn't cut corners when it came to location shooting. Also Barnaby's office never looked better.
I definitely recommend this set, it is certainly worth the price.
Anyway here is another classic from the Quinn Martin stable. Thank heavens for multiregion DVD players. It means I can have `em all. All I can say is MORE PLEASE and quickly. And please make that whole seasons, not half!! Treat us loyal fans fairly and we will continue to snap these up.

However, since the dvd was relatively cheap, I decided to take a chance and I'm so glad I did. It arrived today - all the way from New Zealand. And it plays in my Region 2 dvd player!! The picture looks great and I'm really looking forward to watching all episodes.
There are four discs with three episodes on each disc, except Disc 4, which contains four episodes.
The episodes and guest stars are:
Requiem For A Son (with Bradford Dillman and William Conrad)
To Catch A Dead Man (with William Shatner)
Sunday Doomsday (with Gary Lockwood)
The Murdering Class (with Andrew Parks)
Perchance To Kill (with Eric Braeden)
The Loose Connection (with Lloyd Bochner)
Murder In The Doll's House (with Jack Cassidy)
Sing A Song Of Murder (with Jackie Coogan)
See Some Evil...Do Some Evil (with Roddy McDowall)
Murder-Go-Round (with Claude Akins)
To Denise, With Love And Murder (with Bill Bixby)
A Little Glory, A Little Death (with Barry Sullivan)
Twenty Million Alibis (with Peter Haskell)
So, if you're a fan of 'Barnaby Jones' and you only have a Region 2 dvd player, buy this dvd! You won't be disappointed.
