Über dieses Produkt

Product Information

A&E's original television series based on Rex Stout's beloved mystery novels stars Maury Chaykin as housebound detective Nero Wolfe, solving mysteries from the confines of his Manhattan brownstone through clues gathered by intrepid sidekick Archie Goodwin (Timothy Hutton). Chaykin perfectly embodies Wolfe's orchid-loving, fastidious nature while Hutton's entertainingly sarcastic voice-over narration captures the true essence of Stout's novels with characteristic wit and suspense. This 3-volume box set includes all 8 episodes from the series' first season.

  • Expensive but worth the investment

    Expensive but worth the investment. I am a die hard Nero Wolfe fan, and I might have made some different casting choices here and there and I wouldn't have had Wofle YELLING so much, but overall, this is a faithful redition of (too few of) the stories Stout wrote. I wish there had been many more seasons than two. Hutton does a good job of capturing Archie's insousiance and the interplay with Wolfe is good. Fritz in the book is not as haughty as he is played, but he still is good. It's interesting that the same small troupe of players is cast in so many different roles, sometimes more than one per episode, and at first that was disconcerting, but then it became fun to identify them in their different roles and disguises.I would recommed that everyone order the complete book series (one ebay?) and THEN watch these episodes, but even without that, and even without being a die hard fan, this series is fun to watch.

  • Nero Wolf is a Buy.

    Nero Wolf is an excellent detective series. Interesting characters, good plots and the 1950s setting also contributes to the interest. Both lead actors are great to watch. Someone gave me the 2nd season, and I enjoyed it so much, I bought the first.

  • Nero Wolfe is Terrific

    Rex Stout is one of my favorite authors. Thanks to my mother, I was introduced to his Nero Wolf mysteries in the 1980s. This TV series faithfully represents the books. Still, as with all things between books and TV or movies, the books are much richer. Still, it's great to see the characters come to life.

  • Nero Wolfe, a well acted detective series featuring Timothy Hutton and Maury Chaykin.

    The Nero Wolfe mysteries, with Timothy Hutton and Maury Chaykin, is a very well done presentation of the Rex Stout detective stories. This production has Timothy Hutton as Archie Goodwin, Maury Chaykin as Nero Wolfe and uses a recurring group actors that play different characters in different episodes. The stories are interesting, mostly non violent and well acted. Nero Wolfe, a genius, solves crimes with out leaving his office, except on rare occasions. Archie Goodwin does with leg work and acts as Nero's right hand man. Nero always seems to solve the crime just in time to trump his rival, Inspector Cramer. If you like detective stories that are not overly violent and that are clever, this is a good series to watch.

  • Great show.

    My mom is the one who actually started watching the show years ago, on A&E, and now she reads the books by Rex Stout. I bought this season one set for her on Mothers Day, she loves it.

    Loved this tv show when originally broadcast. The main characters are true to the books. Like the troupe playing different characters in each episode. Good value for fans and new viewers.

  • Nero Wolfe Season 1 is a great addition to your library

    Smart, funny, classy mysteries play out in and around the New York City of the '50s. Timothy Hutton and Maury Chaykin head a cast of players bringing you mysteries with snappy dialogue, a terrific setting, and great pacing.

  • Defective disc

    I love Nero Wolfe and this production of his work. The price seemed great until I realized the second disc was defective. So two thirds of it was great.
