Starring: Hal Linden and Harry Morgan
Alexander Blacke was a debonair detective who had recently retired as a society magician and who now used his bag of tricks to nab murderers and other scoundrels. His understanding of illusion and deception often proved useful in figuring out how seemingly impossible crimes had been committed. Assisting Alexander was his father Leonard, a not quite reformed flim-flam man and master of disguise, whose skills came in handy in setting up ways to expose the bad guys. Unfortunately Dad still found it difficult to stay on the right side of the law, requiring his son to periodically bail him out.

Notable guest stars include: Cesar Romero, Tina Louise, Patrick MacNee and Vincent Price.
