Speed Trap:
a dyed injection in an orange peel















A Test for Living (autism)
Does anybody think this guy was on Eight is Enough?














 A young Tracy Gold















Death by Good Intentions
 
This guy went on to play "Trapper John M.D."
— at Quincy, M.E. Death by Good Intentions (1978).












 2 injection holes side by side- evil nurse was killing off patients she didn't approve of. 













 
return of the super computer (as seen in Columbo)
 













A Night to Raise the Dead
 another Halloween style oldie but goodie - a landslide made coffins get washed into the neighbourhood 













 Tonnes of coffins getting washed off the hill 









Quincy, M.E. : No Way to Treat a Body (1978)

This is one of my favourite Halloween episodes.  The spooky house looks like the Psycho house!  There was also a black cat.













A young Ed Begley junior plays a renter in this house, along with one of Quincy's girlfriends.













The first 2 mummies are playing poker. They died of natural causes. It was never explained why they were posed this way.












 Comparing handwriting samples

Quincy, M.E. - The Last Six Hours (1978)

Quincy used this crazy old Packard car when trying to go for a vacation.  Usually he drives his coroner's station wagon everywhere.












Lesions, lesions, lesions!  (If you get bitten by a poisonous snake.)














Using an ultraviolet light to see snake venom on the steering wheel of a car.  Quincy was always decades ahead of CSI!












I still wonder about this piece of lab equipment.














Graph indicates the presence of poison














Threatening the murderer using a snake.  ?!?!?
