The Untouchables Tv Show Trivia:
The Untouchables was produced by Desilu Studios. It began with two episodes on the Desilu Playhouse which were so popular that the studio decided it merited a tv show of its own. Both were adapted from the real-life Elliot Ness's biography.
One day a man came into Desi Arnaz's office and said, "The boys (referring to the mob) don't like what you're doing with the show." Desi responded, "The gate swings two ways. She swings in, she swings out!" In other words, he told him to get off the lot! Two days later, three gunshots were fired into the "Indian Wells Hotel", owned by Desi. It was later disclosed by a mob insider that a "contract" was put out on Desi, but the mob soon changed their mind over fears that the F.B.I. could get called in on the case if he was murdered! They didn't want the Untouchables on THEIR trail!
In an American Heritage magazine article about gangsters, they stated that Al Capone was the most over-rated gangster of the 20th century. They claimed that was due to his portrayal by cast member Neville Brand on The Untouchables.
The Untouchables was highly contraversial in the beginning as its episodes were among the most violent on television. The ratings were also huge, perhaps mostly due to the realism that the violence conveyed on the tv show.
