Checkmate

Checkmate Inc. was a San Franciso firm whose mission was to stop or "checkmate" a crime before it happened.

Anthony George played Don Corey, the head of the firm, and Doug McClure played Jed Sills, Corey's assistant. Sebastian Cabot played a university criminology professor who served as a consultant to Checkmate.
The three worked out of Corey's beautiful Nob Hill apartment which had a great view of the city.
