Honey West debuted in the fall of 1965, derived from the famous
detective novels of the same name. Produced by Aaron Spelling, she
was television's first liberated female, a crack private
investigator and an expert in martial arts-beholden to no man. The
beautiful actress Anne Francis was cast in the central role as the
sexy, wise-cracking star, and she is assisted by her cantankerous
sidekick, Sam Bolt (John Ericson) and somewhat flaky live-in, Aunt
Meg (Irene Hervey). In 30 black-and-white episodes, Honey battles
her way through the underworld by dint of her wits, judo prowess,
and killer looks, aided by an arsenal of high-tech gimmicks, a sexy
Cobra sports car, and an ocelot named Bruce! The result is an
unmistakable slice of 1960s Americana, one which cut the template
for strong female roles to follow. Celebrated as a cult hit, Honey
West is a must for any afficionados of crime drama television or
just a half-hour of good entertainment. This ground-breaking book
examines the series in detail with interviews of the surviving cast
members, and listings of websites, addresses, bibliographies,
episode synopses, and an appendix. Profusely illustrated.
