I'm in agreement with the other reviewers. For this to have worked it would
have to have been a Nero Wolfe type situation with Glenn Ford doing the cerebral
detecting and a young Archie Goodwin type sidekick to do the action when required. Art, detecting, and boxing is quite a triple parlay of
skills.
Though the late welter and middleweight champion Mickey Walker became a noted painter in real life. Some real life basis for Ford's title character Jarrett.
Looking like they were having a ball with their characters as the competing villains were Anthony Quayle and Forrest Ticker.
Ford is a detective specializing in art and antiquities and he and the others are interested in a lost book of the bible called the Adam and Eve chronicles. It purports to tell what happens to the whole crowd after they got terminated from the Garden Of Eden. It's quite a read this book and Tucker wants to build a church around all the licentious behavior it condones.
Anthony Quayle is a James Bond type villain who is a collector of all kinds of things. The final fight scene looks like something from The Avengers. Quayle and Tucker are just chewing up the table legs and having a ball.
Jarrett is a fun movie despite its flaws in a goofy sort of way. But it wasn't TV show.
