Amos Burke became a slightly different character in this series from the fellow he had been in "The Dick Powell Show: Who Killed Julie Greer? (1961)," the opening episode of "The Dick Powell Show (1961)" from which "Burke's Law" was spun off. Dick Powell, who had originally played him, died a few months before "Burke's Law" began to air. Gene Barry, his replacement in the part, was some 15 years younger. The character became much suaver, with emphasis on his designer clothes, his upper-crust social status, and his playboy lifestyle. Also, Burke had now received a promotion in his police career, becoming a captain instead of an inspector.
