Biographie
Richard Coogan (born April 4, 1914) is an American actor best known for his portrayal of Captain Video from 1949-1950. Born in Short Hills, New Jersey, Coogan worked in radio for some time, including appearing as Abie Levy in Abie's Irish Rose. He also appeared on Broadway in five different productions between 1945 and 1955, all of them short-lived except for Diamond Lil with Mae West, and The Rainmaker. He was still appearing on Broadway with West when he took the role of Captain Video on the DuMont Television Network on June 27, 1949. After the live telecast each day, ending at about 7:30 p.m. EST, he would take a cab to the theatre where Diamond Lil was playing. As the popularity of Captain Video increased, Coogan grew less and less comfortable with both the role and the very, very low budget of the production. He left Captain Video in December 1950, replaced by Al Hodge, who played the part for the remainder of the run of the series, until April 1, 1955. Hodge became so completely identified with the character that he was never able to escape it. Coogan transferred to the soap opera Love of Life, where he played the heroic Paul Raven. Between 1954 and 1961, Coogan appeared in such films as Three Hours to Kill, The Revolt of Mamie Stover, Vice Raid, and Girl on the Run. On the NBC television series The Californians (1957–1959) set in the San Francisco gold rush of the 1850s, Coogan appeared as Marshal Matthew Wayne, a character who struck most viewers and critics as a deliberate clone of Gunsmoke's Marshal Matt Dillon. He also had a continuing role on the police procedural series Vice Raid (1960–1961), as Sergeant Whitney Brandon. During 1951–1963 he guest-starred on a number of other TV series, mainly Westerns such as Gunsmoke, Laramie, Bonanza, Maverick, Stagecoach West, Cheyenne, Sugarfoot, Bronco, and Wichita Town, as well as detective series such as Perry Mason, Surfside 6, and 77 Sunset Strip. Coogan retired from film and television around 1964. In later life he was best known as a professional golfer and golf instructor.

Brett Maverick et Bart sont des joueurs affutés qui migrent de ville en ville à la recherche d'une bonne partie de poker. Le poker (à 5 cartes de tirage) est leur occupation favorite, le spectacle se fait autour des Mavericks, mais généralement la partie tourne autour du personnage principal.
Le classique absolu de la série judiciaire. Les bases se posent dès le premier épisode : un avocat imperturbable, un sens implacable de la vérité et des enquêtes qui retournent chaque certitude. Chaque épisode commence par un accusé piégé par les apparences… et se termine par un coup de théâtre en pleine audience. Avec Della Street, précise et loyale, et Paul Drake, enquêteur redoutablement efficace, Mason navigue entre héritages piégés, mensonges familiaux, faux aveux et crimes maquillés. Ce charme rétro, cette tension des procès et l’intelligence des déductions rendent la série étonnamment moderne.
