"NBC Mystery Movie" was the title of an "umbrella series" broadcast from 1971 to 1977. Three shows debuted under that umbrella in '71: "Columbo," "McCloud," and "McMillan & Wife." In the fall of 1972, they were all moved to Sunday nights, and joined in rotation by "Hec Ramsey." Meanwhile, a second "Mystery Movie" rotation was introduced on Wednesdays, featuring "Banacek," "Cool Million," and "Madigan." The theme music was composed by Henry Mancini.
