The series follows an insurance investigator, Robin Scott (Jason), who worked big cases for a ten percent finder's fee. The series also features Jean Blake Fleming as Phyllis Collier. The half-hour black-and-white episodes ran in
syndication from 1960 to 1961. The series was the first to feature
karate with
Ed Parker as a
technical adviser. According to actor Rick Jason in his autobiography
Scrapbooks of My Mind, "I said I would do the show if I could use Karate, not carry a gun. 'The man,' I proposed, 'will be his own moving weapon.'" The show was often tongue-in-cheek, showing Rick Scott as a ladies' man who spent as much time looking for women as for retrieving the stolen goods. ==Cancellation==
