nnnnIn addition, no fan-fiction based on the series exists either. However, with the advent of network syndication and cable tv networks, like A& E, interest in the 70s and 80s based crime-drama series continues to find a new generation of audiences.n
nnnnnOther than the occasional magazine article, very little if any, exists about the QME series.n
nnnnnNo. The original 90-minute episodes which made up the NBC Sunday Night Mystery series (first season) have been time-compressed, and currently air as 60-minute equivalents. Since the pilot and three (3) subsequent 90-minute episodes provide the cornerstone on most of the background and setting to the series, some unanswered questions are bound to arise. Fortunately, most of the pertain information tied to Quincy and Monahan’s investigations have somehow managed to survive.n
nThere are a few websites now that provide syndication television show status. I believe that NBCUniversal how has a retro channel which last broadcast the series during the 2019-2020 TV season. nnnnTo find out more information, check this internet search result periodically:nnnnSearch result –> Quincy M.E. n
