Here are the new TV DVDs, in stores tomorrow.I'm really excited about the second season set for Mannix. The first season had Joe Mannix working for a high-tech investigation firm, which was fine, but the second season is when he becomes a private eye and hires Gail Fisher to be his secretary (yes, secretary: this was before women became "executive assistants"). If you like detective shows and have never seen Mannix (I don't think it's on TV much these days), check it out. It also has one of the coolest theme songs in TV history.

The theme song was great but that action sequence is incredible. Were any of those scenes from the actual show?

I absolutely love Mannix, but haven't seen it in years. I think season 1 & 2 DVDs are soon going to be part of my collection.
Oh and I totally agree about both the theme song and the action sequences!

The action sequences were great! I was a very little kid when this show was on but I remember my dad and older brothers joking about Mannix being in at least one great knock-down-drag-out fight every week but never wrinkling his suit! LOL.
Mannix action sequences were/are legendary especially to anyone old enough to remember the show. There’s an episode of Seinfeld in which Jerry and George are “trapped” in the back of a [stolen] limo and George suggest just jumping out to which Jerry says something to the effect of, “We’re moving at 60 mph! What are you, Mannix?!” LOL!!
