Storyline
Plot Summary |
Attorney and US Navy vet Stewart "Mac" McMillan is appointed Commissioner of Police for the city of San Francisco. He often handles the very high profile cases personally. Helping him out on many of them is his wife Sally, who's father was a detective for the SFPD. In fact, Sally gets so involved that she often puts herself in harms way. They are often assisted by Mac's loyal, but somewhat inept assistant Sgt. Charlie Enright and their hard drinking, smart mouthed live in maid Mildred. Sadly, a few years after Mac's appointment Sally dies in a plane crash. Also, Mildred quits her position and is replaced by her scatterbrained sister Agatha. Also, in later years Enright is promoted to lieutenant.

Did You Know?
Trivia | Rock Hudson originally did not like the series, but agreed to make it because of the bad films he was being offered. He said, "Television is the monster of all time that eats everything and everybody. When they wanted McMillan & Wife to go to two hours I said, 'Why? The thing doesn't even hold up for ninety minutes!'." However after the series ended he saw an episode repeated on television and admitted, "It was better than I thought. Why didn't I put more into it?". See more » |
Goofs | There an inconsistently with the spelling of Commissioner McMillan's first name. In at least one early episode, the first name was shown spelled as, "Stuart," while later it was commonly spelled as "Stewart." Given that he is supposed to be of direct Scottish descent, it would more likely be that his name should be spelled as Stuart. See more » |
