Premise: Eliot Ness and his band of incorruptible federal agents fought crime (meaning Al Capone) in Prohibition-era Chicago in this series, which was enormously popular with audiences, but was shot down by critics, who lambasted its extreme violence. Walter Winchell provided the narration. A syndicated remake of the series aired from 1993 to 1994, but the best `Untouchables' is undoubtedly the 1987 Brian De Palma-directed movie version that earned Sean Connery a supporting Oscar.
