Private-eye Mike Hammer is based on Mickey Spillane's famous novels. This series was every bit as violent as the books described by TV Variety as a "mixture of blood, violence and sex." In the premiere episode Angie Dickinson was bumped off early. Hammer had a knack for wise-cracking and smart-alec responses to anyone and everyone.
