- Raymond Chandler's Phillip Marlowe became a half hour television series that aired on ABC for 26 episodes in 1959/60 "The Ugly Duckling" is the first.
Donna Raymond is a vixen who has her claws in David Jordan, a married man. He is a lawyer who looks after his wealthy wife's interests. Donna arranges to have someone run Mrs. Jordan off the road but she survives. At this point Marlowe is called in by Paul Howard who is Mrs. Jordan's father.
It is decided that Marlowe will offer $10,000 to Miss Raymond to leave town. Marlowe goes to her apartment makes his pitch and leaves her the ten grand. As he is leaving her room Marlowe runs into Hank the hotel dick who is an old friend. He agrees to call Marlowe if Miss Raymond doesn't check out.
Later that night Marlowe gets a call from Hank telling him Miss Raymond hasn't checked out. He calls her and she denies that he gave her the money. We also see that Mrs. Jordan is in the room with her. When Marlowe gets back to the hotel he finds Miss Raymond dead.
Marlowe makes an an anonymous tip about the murder and goes to leave. Before he can get away he is knocked out and dragged back into the room. We are next at police headquarters where Marlowe is in the clear but Mrs. Jordan has been arrested when she denies having been there when her fingerprints are found their.
We next find Marlowe back at the Jordan house where he finds Mr. Jordan, who is supposed to be out of town. Also there is Mr. Howard who we find out is carrying a .38 the same caliber as was used in the murder. So now we have three suspects.
Marlowe then returns to Miss Raymond's room Hank has let him back in so he can look for the missing ten grand. Who should turn up at that point but Rossi who gets the drop on Marlowe when he pulls a .38. Marlowe manages to get the gun away from Rossi and we go back to police headquarters.
There we find that Rossi has an alibi for the murder and that the gun that was used in the murder was Marlowe's backup which has has hidden in his car. It is suspected that Mrs. Jordan had access to the gun so Marlowe isn't held.
We next see Hank on the phone with Mr. Howard who can't believe that Marlowe hasn't been charged. When Hank hangs up the phone we see Marlowe is also there and he's solved the case. Hank had the passkey and knew Miss Raymond had been paid off. In addition Hank knew about Marlowe's backup gun. First he tries threatening then bribing Marlowe. There is a brief struggle Marlowe gets the gun away from Hank and the case is closed.
The cast was; Philip Carey as Philip Marlowe, William Schallert as Police Lieutenant Manny Harris, Virginia Gregg as Luceille Jordan and Barbra Bain as Donna Raymond.

I love these black and white television series.Thank you so much!😊
What a twist! Love these old movies.
GREAT TV!! Unlike the mess that's served up today. Thanks for sharing this.
I would kill for some of the furnishings and decor from that era!.
William Schallert had an amazingly long career. He was in dozens of movies and tv series. One could hardly miss him.
Dobie Gills, Patty Duke, etc...
"Them!".
No wonder, He had it all: height, looks, personality, intelligence, a ‘clean’/Good-Guy vibe… it’s no wonder that he wasn’t also elected as President!
😉😂😄
I love the classic cars from1930s ~ 1958.
That's a '59 Ford Fairlane 500 Galaxie Skyliner Marlowe drove.
Barbara Bain was on Mike Hammer, Richard Diamond and Philip Marlowe in the same year - 1959.
Great show
I've never seen Barbara Bain when she was this young.
The same actor who playing Phillip Marlowe years later would play Cowboy Asa Buchanan on tv soap opera One Life To Live!!!!!
Terrific actor Phillip asa❤ handsome
Oldies but goodies i was 3 when they were first shown
Huh. In my hometown i grew up with Philip Carey as "Granny Goose"-Definitely well seasoned.
Also Barbara Bain as a lying floozie. Interesting.
Phil carey was. Was what my grandma would call a '''tailor. Made ''man 😊was. He ever !!!
Thanks for watching and your comments Doris.
Excellent.
Amazing that in such a short episode, the story got so complicated & twisted. My favorite character in here is William Schallert. I especially love his reaction when Marlowe roughly brings in a suspect. "Oh, Phil, I didn't hear you come in." NOT your average cop friend of a P.I.
Philip Marlowe was produced by Mark Goodson and Bill Todman, Sr. - whose production house became what is now FremantleMedia.
I love these old shows too. It's hard to get a good story in a 25 min episode, but they did it. Richard Diamond Private Detective was another one that did a great job along with twilight zone of course. I also liked the first season of the Naked City which were half hour as well (1st season only). The Lawless Years was great and the couple episodes of Mike Hammer with Darren McGavin I've seen and M Squad with Lee Marvin. These old actors could really pull you in unlike many actors from today.
A young and gorgeous Barbara Bain!
Good movie, thank you.
Pretty gosh darn good. Better than the first one l saw. No mention of the excellent Rhys Williams (as Hank) who made his film debut in John Ford's "How Green Was My Valley" (best picture of 1941) ?? The only bone fide Welshman in the film.
Indubidubly 🙂
Wish I could find this on dvd
It's interesting to see that the guy who slugged Marlowe (Carey) called Marlowe, "Soldier". Just like Humphrey Bogart was called "Soldier" in Key Largo.
I think Philip Marlowe was called 'Soldier' in the early Raymond Chandler stories. Chandler fought in WWI.
Thankyou 🎉
Thanks!!!
Great TV show.
Virginia Gregg AND Barbara Bain in the same episode. What's not to love?
Thanks for the upload ChiTown - much appreciated. Barbara Bain before her Mission Impossible gig. Rather an attractive young woman. She eventually married Martin Landau also from M I. Not the best of Phillip Marlowe presentations but for anyone who likes detective movies and TV serials it foots the bill.
Thanks for watching. If you like classic tv shows I hope got a chance to watch the episode of an early 1950's series called Danger written by Rod Serling and starring Paul Newman. ruclips.net/video/hcB2dyscUww/видео.html
@@ChiTownView hay, thank you !
Actor James Griffith was an unlikely love interest: he just looked like a loser.
Barbara Bain and Martin Landau in "Space 1999".
"Rather"?
thank you for 'upping' these. a real 'blast man'.
Glad you dug them Neil, thanks for watching.
Thanks, ABC, and all the colleagues at Fremantle for keeping the Chandler legacy alive.
A bit better than I expected; it was well, timed and photographed, considering its low budget, the vilan was unexpected.
Raymond Chandler was paid for each episode of that series, maybe he had to give his stamp of approval for it.
( There has been a lot of talk about which actor is the "best Marlowe". Chandler thought that Cary Grant would have been his choice for the part. Cary Grant was offered the role of playing the first James Bond, but he turned it down.)
It's really, really hard to believe Chandler would have wanted Cary Grant, an Englishman from Leeds to play Marlowe, an American from California.
thank you
Since the original Perry Masons arent avail., this is def the next best thing 👍
Pluto TV has the original Perry Mason. free to download. lots of old shows there. Enjoy.
This isn't even close to Mason.
great, the real thing, authentic athmosphere.
tanx
TY for the upload :-)
Thanks for watching Chris.
Phillip Cary. Asa from One Life To Live
That was his name. Asa.
Originally telecast on October 6, 1959.
That's the day I was born tee hee
7:40 She's home alone - with a huge pitcher of martinis.
Virginia Gregg! After hearing her as Helen Asher in Rick Diamond one wanted to see her face.Though sometimes one got a bit annoyed when Rick Diamond was crooning in his nice voice and she interrupts his song with Reekeee, Rickeee, because she wants cuddling.
She is playing the daughter of Paul Howard (actor Addison Richards) here. In real life, she was just 14 years younger than Addison Richards
Mrs. Martin Landau.
Phil carey should have been a bigger star !!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Bain from Space 1999 was a legit HONEY!!!
I wondered where I saw her
Thanks,not the usual tosh...!
I'm always curious how is possible successful and rich men's to be manipulated so easily just for a smile, nice body and beautiful women!😂😂😂
It's painfully easy, for the women who have the tools to pull it off.
Film noir tv
Had potential given time could have been a good series networks don't allow time for most shows to find its groove anymore.
Phil should have obtained a receipt!
Are there any more episodes
I've read all the Marlowe stories. Don't recall him having a scar.
A girl tried to slit his throat once
I was wondering about that.
Barbara Bain, stars here as the other woman....She would later marry Martin Landau and star in the original MISSION IMPOSSIBLE. She managed to lower her voice over the years to a sexy purr. Her agent must have told her...
You may not believe this but his name is Granny Goose.
Barbara Bain!!!
He looks like John Forsythe.
Thanks for watching & your comments.
So who was the ugly duckling?
The husband?
Philip Carey wasn't bad as "Marlowe".
Better than this garbage that’s out today
What year was this out?
Kayci 1959
1959
This Marlowe guy looks like Phil Hartman.
Hartman the copy
Troy McClure
The eternally hot Babs Bain AND Patty Duke's TV father!
Say. No. More.
Schalarette was the busiest tv actor ever.
4:33 just step on it and keep your hands at "10 and 2"
Barbara Bain is a KNOCKOUT. 😃
She looks like Kim Cattrall.
Funny how everyone drove a Ford.
Thanks for watching David.
Ford supplied the cars for promotional purposes, as they did in "The Killers" (1964) that was a film made for t.v..
Produced by Goodson-Todman, who controlled syndicated t.v. game shows in the U.S. and abroad.
@David530 not so funny considering Ford was a sponsor of the show
13:50 references to non-ABC series.
Peter Gunn would become one in season 3
Marlowe had a wicket scar under left eye
Barbara Bain could be Aubrey Plaza’s mother…
I didn't know THA THE REAL KILLER WAS >>>>>>>BANG!
Yeah...thank gosh Goodson and Toddman stuck to game shows
Good, but the best Marlowe is Powers Boothe.
Forgot all about him playing Marlo
He played him in the mid-80s sometime didn't he on an HBO TV series the best I recall
If anybody pulls a gun on you, if you jump real fast, you can always take it away from them......
......but I wouldn't try it if I were you.....
