Season 6: 1963–64[]
This season was approached in a film noir style, and it was essentially a different show, with no connection to the original series. Season 6 featured a private investigator named Stuart Bailey who was still played by Efrem Zimbalist, but he had a different personality and background. Bailey's office was located in a different building than before, although the show name was still 77 Sunset Strip. The theme music was changed as well. The show was canceled midway through the 1963/64 season; summer repeats shown during the summer of 1964 were all from earlier seasons.
