Punch-Clock Villain | |
| Ironside (1967) / int_20860a0e | comment |
Punch-Clock Villain: In one episode, a pair of hitmen hired to kill a pool player (they end up being stopped by Ironside's team) chat about their difficult plane ride to San Francisco and what one of them plans to do with his child later on. When their target appears, they comment that he looks like a nice guy and wonder what he did to earn their boss's wrath. | |

Poorly Disguised Pilot | |
| Ironside (1967) / int_38b05ae7 | comment |
Poorly Disguised Pilot: Two in a row at the end of the seventh season - "Riddle At 24,000" (about a crime-solving doctor played by Desi Arnaz) and the two-parter "Amy Prentiss: AKA The Chief" (revolving around San Francisco's first female chief of detectives, played by Jessica Walter). Dr. Durango (the name of the proposed former series) didn't sell, but Amy Prentiss joined the lineup for The NBC Mystery Movie the following season. Similarly, the fifth season opener "The Priest Killer" was the pilot for the shortlived Sarge, starring George Kennedy as an ex-cop turned priest. | |

Don't You Dare Pity Me! | |
| Ironside (1967) / int_38bb862f | comment |
Don't You Dare Pity Me!: Ironside will not tolerate pity for his condition. In the pilot movie, his doctor and a nun at the hospital express sorrow over his paralysis. He angrily asks if they want to send in "a flaming fiddler" to play "Hearts & Flowers". Later in the pilot, Eve and Ed are driving Ironside home from the hospital, tiptoeing around his condition. He tells Ed to stop the car. Then, he orders Eve to say, "Chief, you're a cripple", and Ed to say, "That goes for me, too." Then, with the matter in the open, he tells them to drive on. | |

Had to Come to Prison to Be a Crook | |
| Ironside (1967) / int_4de1544 | comment |
Had to Come to Prison to Be a Crook: An inversion. In the pilot, Ironside is sure the sniper who paralyzed him is a juvenile delinquent whom he'd sent to detention and who'd threatened to kill him. He later learns that, instead, he was rehabilitated and didn't bear Ironside any ill-will. | |

Internal Affairs | |
| Ironside (1967) / int_71598ac8 | comment |
Internal Affairs: In the episode "Seeing Is Believing", an Internal Affairs investigator firmly, yet fairly, investigates Sergeant Ed Brown when a composite sketch of a man who fatally beat a known criminal bears a resemblance to Ed. Ultimately, it turns out that the culprit merely resembled Ed, and there are no hard feelings on either side. In the episode "The Man On the Inside", Internal Affairs investigate Ironside after he's framed for corruption. Ed works alongside them to make sure that they either vindicate or convict Ironside based on the facts. | |

Human Chess: In "The Deadly Gamesmen", two bored, rich cousins engage in this, using San Francisco as the board and crimes to represent each move. For example, taking a knight involves mugging a rodeo star, while taking a queen involves assaulting a beauty contestant. | |

The Butler Did It: In one episode, an old friend of Ironside's is kidnapped, as is Ironside when he comes to investigate. While the man's butler initially seems like a helpful innocent, a rescued Ironside eventually figures out that he's an accomplice due to how he keeps conveniently leaving on breaks right before someone is kidnapped. | |

Reunion Show: 1993's The Return of Ironside. Sadly, Raymond Burr passed away not long after it first aired. As a result, only the one reunion was produced, in contrast to the many TV movie reunions for Burr's other successful series, Perry Mason. | |
