That's very good to know, @twinsister , thanks for the alert.  I personally prefer the series, to the made-for-TV movies, but, especially the earlier ones, I'd enjoy re-watching.    I'm curious as to how the movies vary from the original conception, and Raymond Burr is always fascinating to watch as "Perry".  I always miss William Hopper as "Paul Drake",  but I do like Barbara Hale's real-life son William Katt as Drake's son.

Good for MeTV to depart from their usual fall-backs by airing these movies.   They might have done it before, but I'm not remembering.   Maybe they'll start shaking up the schedule in other ways too.

@AuntG - Monk is on other channels, so maybe the ratings were not enough for ME TV to continue airing.

@Oznell - I think these PM movies may have aired on Hallmark several years ago.  I remember seeing the repeats, but not sure of the channel.  I agree about William Katt, he was good as Drake's son.
