The Untouchables
ABC aired the American crime drama The Untouchables from 1959 to 1963. Based on the memoir of the same name by Eliot Ness and Oscar Fraley, it recreated Ness' experiences as a Prohibition agent battling crime in 1930s Chicago with a special team of agents chosen for their courage and incorruptibility and dubbed the Untouchables. The novel was subsequently adapted into a film by Brian De Palma in 1987, with a scenario by David Mamet, and a less successful television series in 1993. In 1960, Robert Stack won the Emmy Award for Best Actor in a Dramatic Series for his performance in The Untouchables, a tense, intense crime drama.
