Exceptionally entertaining "Soft-Boiled" Detective Philo Vance solves murders with his wits. His brain is a match for the Great Sherlock Holmes, and so is his superior attitude. Lovers of the noirish hard-boiled school should seek out a host of other shows: Philip Marlowe, Pat Novack, Richard Diamond, Let George Do It, and Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar for starters.
