[@JohnDoe-fh4gd]

Sargent Friday displays a rare toothy grin in the beginning. ☺️

[@RogerArthur-z2v]

His movie and tribes helped influence me to go into Marines in 76

[@jamielacourse7578]

They don't make em like this anymore....Jack Webb- King of the dry monologue......

[@crystalheart9]

That's for sure.

[@JohnDoe-fh4gd]

Indubitably ☺️

[@privateprivate1865]

​@JohnDoe-fh4gd ill go with Broderick Crawford. His line reading rhythm is hilarious

[@jasonbuck489]

Dragnet will always be cool!.....

[@michaelledford4751]

Jack Webb is the main reason I enlisted in the US Marine Corps 1965-1969.

[@mick7even]

Yikes

[@benniebarrow348]

Semper fi

[@TargetedFreedom]

I could understand it during the fog of self inflicted war after the 9-11 buildings were brought down. But you sir were officially propagandized

[@HansDelbruck53]

He's the main reason I took up drinking.

[@macmcleod1188]

You probably know but Don Adams, AKA Maxwrll Smart, signed up at the age of 17, and served in the Pacific Campaign before being hospitalized for a year before returning to be a Marine drill instructor. Webb also signed up but didn't make it. Then, he was given a hardship waiver to support his mother and grandmother. He was always a strong supporter of the police and military from an early age.

Takes me back a fewww years, 1st police show I e er watched when I was 4or5...and was very happy to find it here on YT..Thanks for sharing!

[@paulhammons7077]

Just as good as the radio show

[@wandahall4435]

Thanks for posting these programs they are great 👍

[@YouTube.Algorithmic.Nonsense]

3:15 Now there's Jack Webb's attention to detail that's on display in every Dragnet. The clock in the hotel matches the narration. They say Webb demanded the police department phones used in various scenes had to have the correct extension numbers of actual LAPD divisions on the rotary dials - Robbery & Homicide, Burglary, Auto Theft, Bunco, etc. even though the TV viewer could never actually see them. 😮

[@stephenafromowitz8362]

I’m listening

[@wandahall4435]

Jack Webb is A Savage!!!

[@johna.4334]

Jack Webb is the bomb!

[@MichaelKurse]

Well,if you have a calorie counter,it should work.... You know me and addition,Joe...How about lunch?😆😆😆

[@mistercash1000]

the best of all dragnets

[@McIntyreBible]

I the best of all episodes is "The Big Hit Run Killer. That's my belief at least!"

[@larryb8022]

Love Dragnet, Jack Web and Frank Smith after Frank pass with a heart attack Morgan can in later.✌🏻

[@MikeBurks-w3i]

I think Frank was a much better sidekick than Harry Morgan..great to see these again. Thank You! 😊

[@McIntyreBible]

13:19, this actor played as the commanding officer in the BONANZA episode "Back to Ponderosa"

[@stephenbrumet2187]

This old tv show brings fond memories. Giving away my age & proud of it. And thanks for electing a man with character America!

[@elizabethfallon5828]

A man who takes bribes and a woman who slept her way to the top. She’ll have him declared incompetent & will be in charge. Say hello to the gas prices $3 + a gallon, just like under the Anti American Obummer.

[@donkeyslayer4661]

Captain Dementia and Commierat Harris are the nightmare America may not be able to survive. Your Social Security will be their first target.

[@monstersbrandsparkplugz7151]

Wow! Someone that voted for Biden that’s actually alive. Do you still like the old child sniffer after the inflation and crime going through the roof?

[@steelwheels327]

That's no Babbs .....more like Bobs!! lol!

[@johna.4334]

"Goes moping around the house" Classic.

[@crystalheart9]

I haven't heard the word moping in years.😂😂

[@YouTube.Algorithmic.Nonsense]

Dabbing her eyes with a handkerchief, muttering...Lol. Who uses a handkerchief, let alone a house handkerchief?? I'm just trying to picture the moping, the dabbing, and the muttering 😂

[@mikerose4997]

how did the killer know the stocks were worthless? musta googled it.

[@mathewfullerton8577]

He didn't find them, they were sewn into the liner of the trunk.

[@isiso.speenie5994]

Was rhat James Best ? !!!!!! Looks just like a very young James Best !

[@markgarin6355]

Gee...had to point to the three items of evidence.

[@thewkovacs316]

occasionally, they should have updated the scripts from radio to tv no reason to tell the audience that you are going into a room on tv....THEY CAN FRICKING SEE YA GO INTO THE ROOM

[@macmcleod1188]

It made it really easy to listen to these episodes while I'm driving.

[@TonyMichaels166]

I’ve noticed they portray smoking a lot more casually in the older episodes than they do in the later ones lol

[@SmithMrCorona]

Chasterfield/Fatima cigarettes was the sponsor of the radio and early tv versions.

[@macmcleod1188]

​@@SmithMrCoronaand people really did smoke like chimneys as late as the early 80s.
