Summary:
Frank Sinatra has private eyes Rocky Fortune, a “footloose and fancy-free young man,” frequently unemployed, who would then take on a range of odd-jobs that would lead into adventurous escapades.Rocky, always prepared with a smart remark and a tongue-in-cheek approach, is usually a magnet for trouble. There is usually a beautiful woman involved; some good, some poor. His tough man stays just in the rules, though we frequently get a glance of a smooth heart beneath the hard-boiled exterior.Rocky usually received job assignments in the Gridley Employment Company, usually referred to as “the agency”. Through the series, he worked as a process server, museum tour guide, cabbie, bodyguard, chauffeur, vehicle driver, social director for a Catskills vacation resort and a carny. He could also artificial enough bass to try out at weddings and bar-mitzvahs.The show aired just like Sinatra is at the jogging for an Oscar for his role in ‘From Right here to Eternity’, it became a jogging gag that Rocky seemed to work the phrase “from here to eternity” into almost every show.
