Adventures by Morse
- Production Dates: While some sources mention the entire series being broadcast in 1944, it's more accurately described as being produced in the mid-1940s, specifically from 1944 to 1945. Advertisements for broadcasts have been found as late as 1946 and 1949.
- Episode Structure: The 52 episodes were presented in 13-episode blocks, with each block typically containing two stories: a ten-chapter story followed by a three-chapter story.
- Characters: The series followed the exploits of two globe-trotting private detectives from San Francisco: Captain Bart Friday (portrayed by Elliott Lewis, David Ellis, and Russell Thorson) and his sidekick Skip Turner (played mostly by Jack Edwards and occasionally by Barton Yarborough).
- Themes: The adventures covered a wide range of thrilling topics including espionage, kidnapping, murder, secret Nazi bases, snake worshipers, and voodoo.
- Connection to "I Love a Mystery": "Adventures by Morse" was indeed created shortly after NBC canceled "I Love a Mystery." Interestingly, "I Love a Mystery" was later revived on the Mutual Broadcasting System and ran from 1949 to 1952, even recreating some of Morse's original scripts. "Adventures by Morse" essentially filled the void left by the initial cancellation of "I Love a Mystery."
