1/16/1981 Nero Wolfe comes to NBC
January 16, 1981. This date saw the premiere of Nero Wolfe on NBC, starring William Conrad and Lee Horsley. As a major fan of Rex Stout's great detective I will restrain myself and merely say that it was worse than bubonic plague.
I agree that adaption was the most vile anathema. It is even worse than the radio plays featuring the late Lionel Stander as Archie Goodwin.
