On this day in 1951
On this date in 1951 Dragnet first premiered. The show about hard working police dectectives who investigated everything from robbery to murder had a successful 8 yr run before being cancelled. Prior to its succesful t.v. run, it had been a popular radio program starring Jack Webb, who continued his role as Sgt. Friday on the t.v. show; his rapid fire, monotone delivery of a straight arrow,hardnosed detective is the thing that is most remembered about the show. Classic T.V
