    In 1951, at age 5, I remember seeing "Dragnet" on t.v. at its beginning, with Bart Yarborough, as Jack Webb's sidekick! At the same time, the show was simulcast on radio & my 64 yr. old grandmother refused to watch it on our brand new television & preferred to sit in the dark, while listening to the radio! She had grown used to the "theater of the mind" version! Memories!

They changed a lot more than just the names... locations, some background stories to make the characters more interesting, etc... But the crimes themselves? Ripped DIRECTLY from actual Police Reports with most details kept intact from beginning to end.
