Mystery Adventure starring Frank Sinatra (1953
- 54)
Rocky
Fortune was a short run series with the lead character,
who goes by the name of Rocky Fortune but whose real
name is Rocko Fortunato, was played by Frank Sinatra.
Rocky, always ready with a wise remark, seems to be
a magnet for trouble, most often with the variety of
odd jobs he takes.

involved, some good girls, some bad. Rocky was a tough
guy who stays just inside of the law but we get an occasional
glimpse of a soft heart beneath the hard exterior.
Unfortunately, Mr. Sinatra's movie
career took precedence over a radio career with
the success of "From Here to Eternity" (he uses
"from here to eternity" occasionally) and this
series came to an early end. Most scripts were
written by Ernest Kinoy and George Lefferts, who
also wrote
Dimension X and X
Minus One scripts.
