SIMON & SIMON {SIMON AND SIMON}: COMPETITION -- WHO NEEDS IT? {SIXTH SEASON PREMIERE} (TV)
Summary
One in this series of dramas about two dissimilar brothers, Rick and A.J. Simon, who run a financially troubled detective agency. In this episode, Rick and A.J. are hired by a woman whose insurance company is contesting the claim on her sunken tour boat. As the program begins, the Simons' monetary woes are being exacerbated by a new tenant in their building -- the large, prosperous Triple I Agency, which is pulling clients away from them. Just as the brothers are about to give up, they are hired by Dorrie Wilson, a woman whose insurance company believes that she is responsible for an explosion on her boat. The insurance company, however, has hired the Triple I Agency to find evidence against Dorrie, and the two detective agencies try to outsmart the other in a competitive attempt to solve their cases. Commercials deleted.
Cataloging of this program was made possible by Broadcast Music Inc., in honor of Barry De Vorzon and Michael Towers.
