Barnaby Jones: "Fatal Flight" (1973)
Episode description
You'd think that Jed Clampett plus mysteries would be more fun!
"Fatal Flight" is the twelfth episode of the second season of Barnaby Jones. The episode first aired on December 9, 1973. The series starred Buddy Ebsen, the actor best known for starring in The Beverly Hillbillies. This episode also featured Lee Meriwether, Richard Anderson, Jerry Douglas, Murray Hamilton, and Pippa Scott.
Ebsen's Jones is a detective who comes out of retirement after his son is killed while working as a private investigator. In this episode — which has the feel of a plane swiftly losing acceleration — the private eye must square off against live wires, parachuting hippies, and over-the-top Foley artists. It's much less exciting than it sounds.
Listen to Áine and Kevin take flight with topics like The Beverly Hillbillies, glacial pacing, and ice cream.
