Leg Work(1987)

Leg Work is an American detective drama that aired on CBS in 1987. Created by Frank Abatemarco, the series follows a private investigator navigating cases in a gritty urban landscape. Despite its compelling premise, Leg Work struggled to find an audience and was cancelled after just six episodes aired on network television. The show's brief run lasted from October to November 1987, though TV Land later broadcast the four remaining episodes that were produced. The series represents a casualty of the crowded detective drama market of the 1980s, ultimately unable to compete for viewers despite its noir-influenced storytelling and hard-boiled atmosphere.
