10 JUL 2026 - Back up to full speed! Let's be honest: for the last few months, TorrentFunk was painfully slow. Pages crawled, searches dragged, and just loading the site tested everyone's patience. We hunted the problem down to our network and rebuilt it from the ground up — smarter caching, a much bigger and faster connection, and a lot of fine-tuning under the hood. The difference is night and day: the site now loads in a fraction of a second. No more waiting around. Thanks for sticking with us through the slow spell. Now go discover your funk!

Episode: The Adventure of the Sinister Scenario (1x17)
Episode Plot:
Gil Mallory, an actor playing Ellery Queen in a motion picture, is supposed to be shot on camera, then jump up and nab the woman who shot him, exclaiming "Bulletproof vest!" The rehearsal with blanks goes fine. But the ensuing take with the same gun finds it loaded with real bullets, and Mallory drops dead. The film crew tries to carry on, and soon stunt man Mike Hewitt is killed when the car he was driving is rigged to wipe out before he was ready. Are the two murders linked -- and how?

DESCRIPTION
The third television adaptation of the adventures of super sleuth Ellery Queen, this time set during the 1940s. Queen (Jim Hutton) was a mystery writer who assisted his father, Inspector Richard Queen (David Wayne), who was with the New York Police Department, in solving murders. Sergeant Thomas Velie (Tom Reese) was Inspector Queen's assistant and Simon Brimmer (John Hillerman), a rival detective. Queen's methods were arcane and intellectual rather than action oriented, and he always astounded his father by arriving at a correct solution by purely deductive reasoning. In this version, just before he revealed his solution to the crime, Queen always turned to the camera and asked the television audience if they had figured out the identity of the killer yet, they had all the clues, because he was about to reveal the correct killer as we met the entire slew of suspects in one room for the ending.

.: Trama :.
Ellery Queen è il titolo di una serie televisiva poliziesca statunitense, ideata nel 1974 da Richard Levinson e William Link e trasmessa dalla catena televisiva NBC dal 1975 al 1976.
La prima trasmissione in Italia è avvenuta nel 1979 sui canali della RAI. Successivamente è stata ripresa dai canali Mediaset e nel 2005 dalla televisione satellitare Jimmy. Sempre negli anni 2000 è stata proposta dal canale satellitare Fox Crime e attualmente in programmazione su Fox Retro.
La serie è composta da 22 episodi, più una puntata pilota, ed è tratta dai racconti polizieschi di Ellery Queen, pseudonimo con cui erano conosciuti i due scrittori Frederic Dannay e Manfred B. Lee.
Gli autori della serie, noti anche per aver ideato Mannix, Colombo e La signora in giallo, riadattarono alcuni dei racconti brevi compresi nelle raccolte più famose dei due scrittori, in particolare Le avventure di Ellery Queen.
A interpretare il protagonista fu Jim Hutton (il padre del più famoso Timothy), mentre l'ispettore Richard Queen, padre di Ellery, fu interpretato dal caratterista David Wayne. Personaggi di contorno il fidato sergente Thomas Velie (Tom Reese), braccio destro dell'ispettore Queen, il conduttore di gialli radiofonici, nonché investigatore dilettante, Simon Brimmer (John Hillerman) e il giornalista Frank Flannigan (Ken Swofford).
In ciascun episodio compaiono celebri attori cinematografici statunitensi e britannici, che ricoprono il ruolo di guest star nel ruolo di indiziati.
