"Some kind of record"[edit]

I've changed this to simply make note of Quinn's longevity. 21 years is hardly the record - when Charmed ran its final episode, it marked at least 38 consecutive years of prime-time programming for Aaron Spelling. - PacificBoy 22:21, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I returned it, since it's listed in his Museum of Broadcasting History biography. But if we can point to a equally good source for Spelling, then it appears they're in error! The reference in Spelling article seems to be to the Guiness Book, which says he's the most prolific (most hours), not necessarly consecutive years. Did he have a gap somewhere? - DavidWBrooks 01:17, 20 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
There was a one year period (1989-90), between Dynasty and 90210, when Aaron Spelling Productions did not have any series on the air.--Vbd 03:41, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I reverted it back as I couldn't see any mention in the MBH biography of a record. (And besides, wouldn't others, such as Dick Wolf have him beat anyways? --Canuckguy (talk) 00:01, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]


I came here looking for something about the Quinn Martin who wrote movie reviews in the 1920s for the New York World. This obviously isn't him. I don't know if he's wikipedia-worthy, but a note would be helpful. -- Anonymous Me

Quinn Martin - birth name[edit]

You indicate a footnote to reference the birth name Irwin Cohn. However, when you look at the reference it indicates only Martin Cohn. The same with the NNDB reference. Could it be a typo , or is Irwin somewhere in the name? Moonlady4now (talk) 19:21, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Early life[edit]

The ThIs network runs episodes of the old Broderick Crawford series Highway Patrol, and the closing credits include the name Quinn Martin as audio engineer. Same guy? 108.15.29.247 (talk) 04:53, 30 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

QM Productions[edit]

Am I the only one who thinks that all his series should be named and listed. For example, I saw no mention of the TV series Dan August which helped put Burt Reynolds in the public eye. 2600:8800:786:A300:C23F:D5FF:FEC4:D51D (talk) 00:49, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The collapsible box, "Television series produced or created by Quinn Martin", was already in place at the foot of the article when this anon's last comment was posted. It does include Dan August, along with all of QM's other productions. Canonblack (talk) 08:07, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
