The first time I saw this show, about a medical examiner who solves crimes, I thought it was a horrible premise: looking at dead people and getting ideas about how the crime happened. Ew! But it grew on me, which is to say that Jack Klugman's portrayal of Quincy was so delightful that I forgot that most of it took place in a morgue.
Later, of course, we ended up with CSI and its many spin-offs, which are way more graphic than Quincy ever would have dared. Never forget, though, that Quincy was a one-man CSI team -- and we didn't have to deal with all the drama of women co-workers throwing themselves at him every other episode. Plus it's awesome how in the opening scenes, the cops who are there to observe keep dropping one by one. And -- another big plus -- he lives on a boat. I love this guy. By far he's my favorite CSI -- Quincy, M.E.

I remember Mom telling me how much she loved this show. Weird, I have still never seen it. But if it is like CSI (sorta) but less graphic... I would probably like it.
