Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMichael Beck's character in this episode is named Frank Waldeck, after a crewman on Diagnosis Murder. Waldeck became a producer on another popular crime series, CSI: Crime Scene investigation, years later.
- GoofsAt the end of the episode (#5.4), Steve brings out a game called "mancala". Mark says (something along the lines of), "I think I know this game; I knew it as Nine Men's Morris" Nine Men's Morris is an entirely different game, played on a board of three concentric squares. It looks nothing like two rows of six depressions. And there are far fewer playing pieces.
Featured review
Where's Waldo, I mean Walcheck?
Michael Beck, who gained fame by co-starring with Olivia Newton-John in Xanadu, plays a very chillingly cool and malevolent murderer in Deadly Games. He'll stop at nothing to get what he wants big time. Thankfully Dr Sloan knows better, and within the framework of Wei-chi'i (Weiqi), he outmasters the murderer.
Victoria Tennant guest stars in this episode.
I like Diagnosis Murder, and it's a shame Norman didn't continue into season 5. Also a shame there was no real explanation for his departure. Norman was ably played by Michael Tucci (not relation to Stanley).
