Where To Watch
Can you guess what these criminals are up to on Dragnet?
They range from silly to downright diabolical.
When Jack Webb restarted his well-known 1950s detective series Dragnet in 1967, the world was a much different place. The new series reflected that in its wide variety of cases. Some were incredibly serious and some were a categorically kooky.
The suspects were the driving forces behind the tone of each episode.
Here are twelve criminals from Dragnet taken in by Joe Friday. Can you guess what nefarious things they were trying to get away with?
-
What is this elderly repairman in trouble for?
-
What did this psychedelic fellow do?
-
What do these papers show this man did wrong?
-
What is this man guilty of?
-
What did these kids do?
-
This man was caught in the act of...
-
Why is this woman taking the law into her own hands?
-
What did these men do in this laudromat?
-
Why is Friday so mad at this woman?
-
What is this boy threatening to do?
-
These furs are...
-
Why does this man have all these disguises?
Can you guess what these criminals are up to on Dragnet?

I wish MeTV would air the original series.
It was much grittier than this lame reboot!

Are dragnet episodes not in 2021 winter schedule?
12/12. Im a dragnet junkie, radio or TV. I listen to the radio show on Radio classics and watch b/w and color episodes wherever and whenever possible.
I love this show. Can’t believe I missed 1.🙂
raustin2008, Dragnet is a good classic cop series
I have all 4 seasons of the 2nd incarnation on DVD as well as some sets of the 50’s black and white. In the 50’s version, Jack Webb speaks much softer and has different partners but still an interesting show. I noticed that at the end, more or the criminals got the death penalty. 🙂
I have the first three seasons of the second incarnation on DVD. I have also seen the rare 1966 pilot movie,
Yes, I think that is included in season 1. I also have 3 seasons of Adam-12
I just bought seasons 1 and 7 of Adam-12 this past weekend.
Alot of the episodes are also recycled from the black an white series (origianlly called Badge 714) to the colored series. Just changed a few items to make it fit the times.
I know there is a Christmas episode that is just about word for word.
Comic Book guy was the 'star' of Clonus, a MST3k classic.
12,I love this show.

Some FYI for those who might be interested, many of the performers in their roles on Dragnet originally came from a elite group of radio actors from the Gunsmoke radio series and other popular radio shows in the '50s like Ralph Moody, Virginia Gregg, Howard Culver and others, and one in particular was Vic Perrin who also was a well known announcer for many 60's tv series like the intro to the Outer Limits, and Trekkies should know him well as the voice of many aliens in STTOS including the voice of NOMAD in The Changeling episode !
