The Falcon is a hard-boiled spy drama that follows the adventures of Michael Waring, an American agent with the codename "Falcon." Known for its mix of danger, romance, and comedy, each episode typically begins with a call from a beautiful woman seeking the Falcon's assistance. Waring, always ready to solve a mystery, speaks with a slightly British accent, engaging in witty banter with the woman before the episode's adventure begins. The Falcon often encounters incompetent police officers, who are incapable of solving the mysteries without Waring's clever assistance.
Originally premiering on the American Blue Network in April 1943, The Falcon aired for ten years on various networks, including NBC and Mutual, with its final broadcast on November 27, 1954. The show was sponsored by various advertisers, such as Gem Razors and Blades, Anahist, Kraft Foods, and General Mills. Approximately 88 episodes from the show's run are available today. The Falcon featured several actors in the leading role, including Berry Kroeger, James Meighan, Les Tremayne, George Petrie, and Les Damon. The show was initially based on a theatrical serial produced by RKO Radio Pictures in the 1940s, and it eventually transitioned to television in a syndicated series produced for NBC Films around ten years later.
