I am not entirely sure these were from the 1950s, they may have been in the early 1960s, but I loved watching the detectives and private eyes of early television! There was "77 Sunset Strip" that had that cute, cute Edd Byrnes! He would enter a scene, stop and comb his hair, then carry on! My sisters and I really thought it funny, and enjoyed it! He was just a side issue sort of person on the show. The two leading men were handsome and fun to watch, but I can't remember their names. Near the end of this show, the radio had started playing a song, that went, "Kookie, Kookie, lend me your comb." Kookie, of course, was Edd Byrnes. I think that was his name on 77 Sunset Strip, too. Then, there was "Surfside 6", with the blonde beachboy we loved--Sandy. I can't remember his real name. The two leading men were also handsome, dashing, etc. We loved watching them jump into a boat and take off after the bad guys! Those are the only detective shows I can think of. I was born in 1949, so my memory more likely starts around the 1960s. I hope this helps you find what you are looking for.?

Perry Mason was big in both literature and TV; Agatha Christie was popular in print and the movie Witness for the Prosecution was made in 1957 from one of her stories; my parents had a whole collection of books by New Zealand author Ngaio Marsh's detective stories; and of course they had a collection of Leslie Charteris, The Saint detective stories. Then there was Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer series.One of my all time favorite detective movies was the 1950 Mystery Street with Ricardo Montalban as Lt. Peter Morales who took a scientific approach to his job, including consulting a scientist at the local university, Harvard. It was most unusual for movies of this time to use science to solve the crime, considered something like voodoo; but well done enough to hold up to today's forensic savvy audience. It's worth a look see just for Elsa Lanchester's over the top performance.The most popular detective movies of the 1950s were the film noir style of the above mentioned Witness for the Prosecution, The Big Heat, the original D.O.A., and The Asphalt Jungle. Then there were the Hitchcock dramas Strangers on a Train, Rear Window, Dial M for Murder, The Wrong Man, and Orson Well's Touch of Evil, to name a few.When it came to TV, the reigning TV detective series were Perry Mason, Mike Hammer, Peter Gunn, Ellery Queen, The Naked City, the Untouchables, and the original Dragnet. The decade ended with the sunnier 77 Sunset Strip, Hawaiian Eye, and Surfside Six.
