i recall this change, it was the last season and it ruined the show. i think they cancelled it before the regular season even ended, a rarity in those days.
@dsimmonsla As the show was running out of steam in the early sixties they tried a format change to entice new audiences. Vertually all of the regulars departed except for Efram Zimbalist who they turned into a gov. agent. Didn't work.
Wait a minute. That was a different TV series. You're thinking of "The F.B.I."
