McQueen was a Canadian drama television series which aired on CBC Television from 1969 to 1970.
Premise
The plot features newspaper columnist McQueen (Ted Follows) whose The Actioneer feature exposed fraud artists and dubious businesses. He was assisted by Denise (Daphne Gibson) and Natasha (Jan Goldin).
The debut episode, "There's a Car Upside-Down on My Lawn", concerned the disposition of an abandoned vehicle.
Jenny (Margot Kidder) was featured in two episodes as an employee of McQueen's newspaper. In one episode, she helped expose a scam at a talent agency while in the other she sought McQueen's help for a Vietnam draft evader she was dating.
The series was inspired by Frank Drea's Action Line column of the Toronto Telegram, whose newsroom was used to film scenes for the series.[1]
Guest actors during the series included Ruth Springford, Austin Willis and Louis Zorich.
