Mr. and Mrs. North was a mystery melodrama series that aired from 1942 to 1954. It began as a light comedy show about a couple residing at New York City, then eventually became a mystery show in the season that followed. The change of genre proved to be the right thing to do for the series, as it was able to generate ratings at par with its rival detective show Mr. District Attorney.

The role of the Mr. Jerry North was given to Joseph Curtin, while Alice Frost was Mrs. Pam North. Later on, Richard Denning and Barbara Britton took over. The show was all about the couple always finding themselves getting involved in a crime committed by others. Good thing they have Lt. Bill Weigand, a crime counselor, to help them along. The role of Weigand was first handled by Frank Lovejoy. Mr. and Mrs. North turned out to be a huge hit, garnering as much as 20 million listeners. For those who love lighthearted mystery series, this one’s good to go. Click here to read more about Mr And Mrs North
