Love these old shows. Way before I was born, but they know how to tell a story and keep you interested.
You might like the dragnet radio show that preceded this tv show by a couple years, the first few seasons are peak Dragnet quality.
Love it whenever the word “Lankershim” is mentioned
Why is that?
@@jonnychingas5757 just the pronunciation of it…that’s all
Wait until you hear "La Cienega"
The bird killer= actor of note Paul Richards, He played the first character on Gunsmoke (1955) to shoot Marshal Matt Dillon and the first character on Hawaii Five-O (1968) to which Steve McGarrett said, "Book 'em, Dan-o!".
Born November 23, 1924 in Hollywood, California, USA
Died December 10, 1974 in Culver City, California, USA (cancer age 50)
Was the lead in a ground breaking television series about psychiatry, still a good watch to this day; "The Breaking Point" was on during the 1963-64 season, the same year as "The Richard Boone Show" and "East Side, West Side". A fine year for TV series drama. TV Guide critic Cleveland Amory said the most letters he got that year complaining about fine shows being canceled was for "The Breaking Point".
He also appeared in 7 episodes of Dragnet, if Jack Webb liked you, you got work.

What a time to be alive. All the new suburbs, and new electric housing. All new electric refrigerators, stoves, and ovens. Thos appliances were built for life. Some are still going. The refrigerators had shelves that actually pulled out, like drawers. The stoves had a back burner that could be pushed down, and had a pot that fit down into the space, which worked like a crock pot.
This episode was ahead of its time in terms of villain motivations!
instablaster...
Fix b fffffff. Ggggg bbbg g ggggg. G.
No birds were harmed in the making of this episode.
I love how much immediate manpower is used lol. Fingerprints, photographs of the jimmy marks! The first guy doesn't know exactly what was taken, except for $20 LOL! I love it!
Yeah, I thought the same thing. Can you imagine the city cops doing that now days? They would be there for 5 minutes and say that's to bad, give us a list of things that were taken but don't expect to see anything back again. Then they would prob throw away the list once they got out of sight of the house. I think to get a cop finger printer some place you would just about have to have a murder or a rape.
$20 in 1955 is now like over $200 FWIW....
They found out after this show aired that detective work is much safer and easier for them if they don't actually investigate crimes.
He said two silver trays and candle holders and $20-$25 dollars. Killed the Parakeet .....poor bird!
"BADGE 714" was the syndicated title for "DRAGNET" (while first-run episodes were presented on NBC through 1959) from 1953 through 1962.
This episode was originally telecast on October 27, 1955, adapted from a February 1, 1955 radio episode.
Thanks. That’s interesting
Babe Ruth was Jack Webbs favorite ball player. # of HRs 714⚾
The actor who played "Bushing" was also the commanding officer in "Adam-12."
William Boyett played Sgt. McDonald on Adam-12. Over his lengthy career he probably played more cops than anyone in Hollywood, including two different officers on Highway Patrol (with Broderick Crawford). Not to mention a few traffic safety films as well. Always jarring to see him play a "bad guy", which he often did in westerns.
Boyette was a great actor!
@@bobbell1922 He also portrayed a Los Angeles police officer in Perry Mason a couple of times and as you wrote a CHP Sergeant in Highway Patrol with Broderick Crawford.
I think he might have been in starship troopers too.....
He became a very successful producer.
I used to sit with my Dad and watch dragnet
David Perez You we’re lucky. My sister and brothers and I had to sneak out of beds and watch through the railing of the stairs. Hardly ever saw what the jail sentence were. Just before they announced it, my parents were standing and tiding up. We had to seek away before they came into the hall. Good times.
Me too 😌
Mine too
Me too! Tell your dad I said hi.
"Plain as the nose on your face"
"Lickety split"
"You don't say"
Classic!
I love Dragnet!!
Thanks. Love the low key style - very good acting. All performances are easy and believable. Only melodrama is the music 😃
I love the way the seller asks TWO MEN if they'd "like to buy a house"!!!!!
Nothing odd about that. Having roommates or housemates was fairly common back then to save money and because housing was limited.
Besides, gay couples existed even then, they just pretended to be "friends". Happened all the time.
Robert Crosson (Sam Brighton) died in Los Angeles December 10th, 2001. He was 72.
Good actor. He played this episode as well as a gardner in another episode of dragnet
Five hundred down for a house in the San Fernando Valley. Insane
That's about $5000 in today's money. City was really starting to grow during this period, plus you had GIs coming back with money to spend.
Sat w grandma and watched love joe
It’s Ken Williams from Highway Patrol!
Also Frank Johnson from the same show.
One hundred US dollars in 1955 would be worth just under $1000 today.
So 500.00 down-payment for new home would 5,000 down-payment today..
@@dans9463 Pretty much.
"You might..."
Excellent
Should have tracked down the nutty mother and had her evaluated as well.
That yelping puppy is too young to be away from It's momma that's why it's in this episode. So it might sound like a real pet store
Wanted to adopt it.
The guy at 12:10 went on to play Sargent McDonald in Adam-12, can't recall his real name.
William Boyett.
@@watsonf3b Thanks!
and, I think, on Highway Patrol
@@JohnPMitten Yep. Also the narrator on Highway Patrol was Art Gilmore was played Lt. Moore on Adam-12. Anybody know why they seem to have stopped the full episodes of Adam-12 on TH-cam?
@@jmsiii4751 Thanks for the info.
Mendocino!? That place would make any guy nuts!
Beautiful nature..
Crazy cults.
12:43, the rapid dialogue between Friday & the suspect.
11:50 So much for the reliability of "eye witness" testimony. Give me a good circumstantial case anyday.
O- No!! Mac playing a Bad Guy!!
He did time for birdglary.
The Bird is the Word.
Most of these cases seems to be mental
So many birds! AHHHHHHH!!
William Boyett !!! The Ferrari loving alien in The Hidden
Sgt. McDonald on Adam-12
2:10, this character actor appeared also in the episode The Big False Make.
Eddie Floyd implored the Big Bird to get on up.
I'd like to have a few of the cars I see on Dragnet
Everybody had a cool car in the days before the 1970s.
Young mans new wife moved back with her parents
$500.00 down in LA. 1953. They were begging folks to move out here,
Birds were always killed? Must be a cat burglar! 😆
I guess they had enough probable cause to have him committed but not burglary.
Birdglary
Joe Friday was willing to give credit where credit was due, so I have no doubt he would have let people know that Forest Simple helped catch the burglar/bird killer. That, in turn, would help him sell some houses.
One thing I’ll never get he always says “ here’s my card “ never flashed a badge
Is the first robbery victim related to Eddie Haskell? Just curious.
yes
Those poor crying puppies. That dumbbell proprietor character needed to do something. So did the director of this scene.
Innocent by reason of insanity! But still locked up in the "cuckoo's nest".
They must swelter in those suits and hats they wear
Poor birds 🙁
They were lightweight summer suits. Men wore tropical weight suits in the summer then switched to heavier thicker cold weather suits. Dacron polyester cotton linen materials.
22:04, Jack speaks to me
12:08 It’s Sergeant MacDonald! 😮
Brod Crawford will be upset
So at this point they dropped DRAGNET and titled the show BADGE 714
I’ve seen that burglar actor in lots of movies and he’s a good actor but I can’t remember his name right now. 🤔🤔🤔
$500 dpwn house was cheap even then. Houses were at least $8k, often $12k.
Wait, the guy broke into houses to kill the birds, stealing money was only a sideline?
Also in this type of thing, wouldn't they use a police woman as a decoy?
A police woman as a decoy may have been their next step.
Police women were still pretty rare at this time.
@@darkwood777 They could probably scrounge up a police woman working in R&I.
He didn’t need to steal money. He got all he wanted by gouging gullible housewives with his “lawn service”.
Bushing saw the light and came over to the good side of the law later in his career.😁
This could be misconstrued, as a new couple moving in. 😎🎬🔫👮
1:14, $500 for a downpayment on a house!
My husband got our house in 1971 and $500 was the closing cost.
@@annarodriguez9868 You’re kidding!!
@@McIntyreBible The owner was there when we went to see the house and our little girl went up to him and introduced herself. She told him that soon she was going to be a big sister and we needed a bigger place than our apartment. She really charmed him.
The owner told the agent to let us rent the house until the closing. We had been paying $130 rent and he let us move in without a deposit and charged us $110 for rent. I know that nothing like this can happen anymore, but we were very blessed. I'm still living in that house and all the memories of our kids growing up and now there are grandchildren and even great grandchildren.
@@annarodriguez9868 Wow! How fortunate you were!
@@McIntyreBible It was still a lot money because my husband only earned about $450 a month, but being able to move out of the crowded apartment and into the house was definitely a blessing for us.
We had 2nd hand furniture except for the baby crib and a new twin bed for our little girl.
As a matter of fact, we bought no new furniture the first 5 years we lived here. We just made do with what we had. I don't know if young couples do that anymore.
When did the title card start flashing "Dragnet" instead of "Badge 714"?
$500 for a new house.
Jack Webb loved to recycle his actors from this iteration of Dragnet of the 1950s through Adam 12 and Emergency of the 1970s.
Too bad they didn't have Doberman!
no sound?
Miguel Ferrer's previous life ?
That’s a weak case.

I don’t believe this story this was made up it was too contrived now you’re starting to make me doubt some of the other stories to bed because I really like dragon
That’s to be a D bad not bed also that’s dragnet not dragon The AI Is horrible Siri needs to go to school
The commercials ruin it.
Agreed!
Bird killer….. Only in Loss Anngleless !
Just sold the model home to a couple. Two men. Progressive neighborhood.
Multiple 4th amendment violations!
PS: what corny acting!
Ted Cruz 2024.
