Quincy M.E.
 
Susan Christoffersen

Haven't seen Quincy in years but this type of mystery was always a favorite; felt as though I learned a lot just from reading them. I would guess that fans of this show would also enjoy the Patricia Cornwell books, as I do. Anybody out there?

MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION: WHAT WAS QUINCY'S FIRST NAME?

ANSWER: The only clue the audience was ever provided about Quincy's first name occurred (in the episode "Accomplice to Murder") when he handed a battered housewife his business card — sharp-eyed viewers noted the card identified him as "R. Quincy".

I bought the DVD not long ago and have been wallowing in memories...so much so that I've dug out tapes that I made back when it was on origionally. "Dr. Asten" was always my favorite character..and I enjoyed watching his progression from pompous bureaucrat to competent professional and concerned human being. The verbal pyrotechnics between "Asten" and "Quincy" were more fun when you knew they actually liked and respected each other. I'd almost forgotten that "Asten" had a few good episodes where he was allowed to "play detective"...and John S. Ragin made the most of them

You can check out anytime you like...but you can never leave!

Seems like the most frequently asked question here is about Quincy's first name. I will add a sentence to the Introduction above and hope that people will read it!

Actually there were some TV tie-in books that came out during the first few years the show was on. There was maybe two or three of them. I had them..but can't find them...I may have sold them with other similar type books years ago...drat.

Well, that contradicts what the writers themselves have said! There's no conclusive proof he ever had a name either!
