Yancy Derringer

fiction.wikisort.org - Movie

Yancy Derringer is an American action/adventure series that was broadcast on CBS from 1958 to 1959, with Jock Mahoney (1919–1989) in the title role. The show was produced by Derringer Productions and filmed in Hollywood by Desilu Productions. Derringer Productions consisted of half interest for Warren Lewis and Don Sharpe as executive producers, a quarter interest to Jock Mahoney for starring in the series, and a quarter interest to Richard Sale and Mary Loos, husband and wife, as creators.[1] Desilu had just completed the 1956 series The Adventures of Jim Bowie, which was also set principally in New Orleans. The show's sponsor was Johnson Wax (now S. C. Johnson), and Klear floor wax was a regular sponsor.

The Sales based the series on a 1938 short story written by Richard Sale. In the 1930s, Sale was one of the highest-paid pulp writers. The story was never mentioned, but it was about a destitute aristocrat and troublemaker who returns to New Orleans three years after the American Civil War. In the story, Derringer has no first name; "Yancy" was added for the television series.[1]

Overview

The eponymous character, Yancy Derringer, is a gentleman adventurer and gambler. He is a former Confederate Army captain who has returned to New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1868, three years after the end of the American Civil War, in the southern Reconstruction Era. The state is under Union control and martial law. Life goes on in New Orleans despite the fact that the city's atmosphere is forbidding, filled with trepidation and mourning. The Derringer family itself paid a heavy price in both lives and property during the Civil War. Yancy's brother David and his father Yancy, Sr., died in the conflict.

Widely respected by all parts of New Orleans society as a Southerner who never surrendered, Derringer is recruited by the Federal City Administrator, John Colton, to work as a secret agent at no pay; and only Colton knows of his special role. Often at the beginning of an episode, Colton, a former Union Army colonel, asks Yancy to help solve New Orleans' present threat; and often, usually at the end of an episode, he arrests Yancy for breaking the law to do it. Yancy agrees to be Colton's "huckleberry," because Yancy feels the United States should be one nation again. Huckleberry was just one of many unique Southern slang terms creator Richard Sale brought into use during the show.

Although Yancy is based out of New Orleans, his riverboat and propensity for adventure mean that some episodes take him far away from Louisiana. Some stories take place as far away as Nevada, and California.

Characters

Yancy Derringer (Jock Mahoney) lives at the family plantation, Waverly, and also owns a riverboat, the Sultana. (The actual riverboat of the same name sank from a fire/explosion on April 27, 1865, with a great loss of life, including returning Union soldiers.)^{[citation needed]} A lover of fine cuisine and the high life, he spends much of his leisure time at Madame Francine's Club (an exclusive members-only gambling house), the Sazerac Restaurant, or at the Charter House Restaurant, whose specialty is French cuisine.

When called to action, Yancy's weapons of choice are four-barrel Sharps pepperbox derringer handguns carried concealed (one held by a clamp inside the top of his hat, one in his vest's left pocket under his jacket and one up his jacket's left sleeve in a wrist holster) and a knife in his belt. (A belt buckle inset with a toy single-barrel derringer, sold by Mattel at the time and popularly associated with Yancy, did not resemble anything that the character actually used.) He is an expert marksman. He also carries a cane or a riding crop with hidden swords and is said to have iron fists: one punch and his opponent remains unconscious for a day. Yancy dresses elegantly, most often in a white suit with a long coat, ruffled white shirt, a silk vest, a sash instead of a belt, a black under-the-collar bow tie, and a white flat-topped straw hat with curled brim.

Pahoo

Yancy's sidekick, Pahoo-Ka-Ta-Wah (X Brands), is a silent Pawnee American Indian who communicates only by sign language. Pahoo-Ka-Ta-Wah is Pawnee for "wolf who stands in water" (as mentioned in the first episode). Although Pahoo is short on talk, he is long on action. Beneath a blanket wrapped about his body, he carries a sawed-off double-barreled shotgun loaded with split buckshot, which he wields in emergencies. Most of the time, however, he uses a throwing knife sheathed on his back.

John Colton

John Colton (Kevin Hagen) is the city administrator, and a hard-nosed, incorruptible leader who works tirelessly to clean up New Orleans. Colton is also clever, and knows that his position would be untenable if he were personally caught using questionable methods to clamp down on crime. He therefore uses Yancy to unofficially deal with situations that cannot be resolved by conventional means.

Captain Amos Fry

In episode 13, a new character, Captain Amos Fry (played by Robert McCord III) is introduced. Fry would remain until the end of the series as the local head of the U.S. Secret Service, who works closely with Colton to combat lawlessness in New Orleans. Fry does not know of Derringer's unpaid work as an espionage agent; often the amiable but plodding Fry is working on combating a problem in a legal manner, while Derringer -- unconstrained by official law-enforcement policies and procedures -- uses decidedly more unorthodox, colorful and possibly borderline-illegal methods to nullify the threat.

Madame Francine

Yancy's recurring love interest is Madame Francine (played by Frances Bergen, look-alike mother of Candice Bergen). She is the strong-willed, beautiful owner of a members-only gambling house in New Orleans, and she or her business are often involved in Yancy's adventures. Her real name is Nora and she is actually Irish.

The Hostesses

Madame Francine's Club employed a number of young, beautiful, and glamorous hostesses, who also sometimes acted as card dealers. Seen most frequently were Charlene James as Pearl Girl, Patricia Blair as Goldy, Joan Boston as Opal, and Jane Burgess as Crystal.

Obadiah

Bill Walker played Obadiah, the African-American doorman of Madame Francine's club. A dignified pillar of the community, he is the head of a committee that represents "thousands of law-abiding citizens of New Orleans" in bringing a petition to the city administrator in the episode "V as in Voodoo". Another club doorman addressed as Jeremiah is seen in a few episodes, but this character has no lines and is not credited.

Jody Barker

Richard Devon played Jody Barker, a respectable-looking Bourbon Street pickpocket. Yancy and Francine were wise to his ways, and frequently stopped him from fleecing club members. However, he was a useful source of information about doings in the criminal underworld, and sometimes participated in certain 'sting' operations for Yancy.

Turnkey

Yancy spent so much time in the local jail (usually put there by Colton or Fry), he became great pals with the jailer, who was addressed as "Turnkey". The genial Turnkey (played by Larry J. Blake) often played poker in the cells with Yancy, and, sympathetic to Yancy's situation, sometimes aided in (or at least turned a blind eye towards) Yancy's escape plans.

The Sultana crew

Seen relatively often were the crew of Derringer's riverboat, the Sultana: Captain Tom (Woody Chambliss), and the ship's pilot Willy Quill (Gene Collins).

Others

The following recurring characters were seen in anywhere from three to five episodes:

Miss Mandarin, a.k.a. Mei Ling (played by Lisa Lu) is a former love interest and close friend of Yancy. She is the proprietor of his favorite place to dine, the Sazerac Restaurant.

Colorado Charlie (played by Kelly Thorsden) is a white man raised by natives, a guide to the Indian Territory, and a friend of Yancy's.

Bridget Malone (played by Margaret Field, mother of Sally Field and wife of series star Jock Mahoney), is Madame Francine's cousin recently arrived from Ireland, originally endangered by the ship's crew but rescued by Derringer.

Lt. Bacon (played by Marvin Bryan) is a local police contact (and sometime adversary) of Yancy's.
