What TV-shows have done Noir versions?
I have seen episodes of both Smallville and Fringe, where they tried to set things in a noir setting. Even if the Fringe episode also involved singing. Both were fun to watch. I was wondering if you gentlemen knew of any other TV-shows that have done Noir episodes?

This has a few, though I can't vouch for any of them. I don't watch a terrible amount of actual television...

That´s rather handy, thank you for that. Incidentally in Star Trek Voyager, the character Tom Paris sometimes used the holodeck to play pulp character Captain Proton.

It's a Trek staple, really. The original Trek had the Gangster Planet episode. I also seem to recall Picard had a holodeck program where he played a hard boiled detective. You might argue DS9 was Noir by its very nature, being originally even conceived as a Casablanca In Space, IIRC.

TVTropes has a pretty comprehensive list, but here's another. It's not necessarily noir, but the show Supernatural ran a whole show shot and scripted like a 1920s Universal Monster movie.
