Checkmate was one of the best television dramas to come out of the 1960's, combining great scripts, locations and casting. Created by thriller-writer Eric Ambler and filmed on the streets of San Francisco, the series revolves around private investigators and their quest to prevent crimes before they happen. The show's haunting, iconic music, composed by John Williams, is perfectly suited for Checkmate's San Francisco setting, of fog-filled streets, sweeping ocean views and cable cars.
On June 22nd, the Timeless Media Group (TMG) will release Checkmate - The Complete Series in one big 14-DVD package, starring Doug McClure, Sebastian Cabot and Anthony George. You'll get approximately 3500 minutes (over 58 hours), at a cost of $79.98 SRP. Here's a look at the packaging:
