McCloud: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

Deputy Marshal Sam McCloud of the Taos police travels to NYC to track down a criminal. He ends up loaned to the NYPD as a special investigator, and his laid-back cowboy ways are a strict contrast to the rough-and-tumble NY police officers that he works with.

The series was part of NBC's Sunday Mystery Movie, and brought in high ratings as it rotated with Columbo and McMillan and Wife.
