This Murder Comes to You Live

The story concerns a murder that takes place on the air during a panel discussion program. Ben Hecht has the role of poet Alonzo Christian who appears on the program and is murdered right on the air. The off-the-air antagonisms of the panel members and the unpleasant character of the program host when he is off-mike provide the background for the mystery. Ellery Queen (Lee Philips) has come to the program to watch his friend Christian. (Last episode of the series.)
