The show ran for only one season on CBS. It has since played in syndication on TNT Network.

There were many great opportunities for special make-ups on the series 'Under Suspicion.' One of our early shows centered around spousal abuse.

Actress Shawna Schuh"I have often fought with networks concerning graphic violence in sexual or spousal abuse cases. I DO NOT promote graphic violence in most movie-of-the-weeks or series EXCEPT when it serves a greater purpose. When it comes to spousal abuse, I believe it is important not to 'water' down the violence too much. An underlying goal in this type of project is to educate the public. By showing how badly a victim of abuse can be assaulted, maybe we can scare the s**t out of someone enough to make them get help." -- E. Larry

Peter Onarati

One of the stars of the pilot episode for the series was veteran actor, Peter Onoratti. The photo shown here was from the scenes where Onoratti shows up after several days on the run. The beard is created by blowing tiny human hairs onto the skin after covering with mustache wax.

Another great episode had an organized crime killing. The victim was found in a trunk with his hands removed. "I used a prop hand I had lying around the shop and created two stumps that fitted over the actors hands."
