The Pinkertons

If you enjoy Western movies, you may be familiar with the Pinkertons. Allan Pinkerton, the agency's founder, made the Pinkertons famous by allegedly foiling a plot to assassinate President Lincoln. They may be most recognized now for their participation in the video game Red Dead Redemption, which brought the vintage detectives to a whole new audience. The company actually filed a lawsuit against Rockstar Games, which they later dropped, because it was unimpressed with its time in the game's spotlight.

In addition to avoiding the Pinkerton agents who were hot on their trail, outlaws in movies also managed to avoid time. Despite having a strong connection to the Wild West, the Pinkertons not only survived that time, but they are still in business today. The Pinkertons can be hired for a variety of services, including risk assessment, event security, and workplace violence mitigation. In collaboration with Channel Zero, Rosetta Media and Buffalo Gal Pictures produced the show. This first-run syndicated television program's production was announced in April 2014, and shooting got under way in August of that same year.
