However, many fans made it known on social media that they were outraged that Moore didn't also receive an acting nomination for her age-spanning portrayal of Rebecca Pearson. As proven by the recognition given the show in earlier seasons, "This Is Us" was a Primetime Emmy darling through much of its run, so the very obvious shunning of it for its victory lap is something of a mystery. However, Moore and others involved in the series took the high road in their responses, expressing that their pride in the work they did is something that no one ever can take away from them. Q: What was the name of the detective series that Burt Reynolds made? – Pete Wolf, Bexley, Ohio A: Actually, there were several of them. The first was "Hawk," a 1966 drama in which he played an investigator for the New York City District Attorney's Office. Then came "Dan August" in 1970-71, with Reynolds as a homicide sleuth working in his California hometown. Finally, there was "B.L. Stryker," actually a series of 12 films that aired in 1989-90 in ABC's bid to revive the rotating "Mystery Movie" anthology that had originated on NBC. Reynolds also directed some of those stories, which cast him as a Florida-based private eye. Interestingly, Tom Selleck was among the producers of that venture.
