I'm too young to remember the original Dragnet TV show butI well remember
it's 60's reincarnation. As a wise guy ever so hip teenager, Sgt. Friday, with his straight talking lectures to hippies and pot heads
seemed hilariously square. And yet I liked the show's simple format(which
became ridiculous on its spin-off Adam-12, when a radio call would invariably feature a close-up of the car radio speaker!) and the sometimes gitty realism. Watching the re-runs 30 years later, it seems ... Read More

Probably the most unintended comical picture in Hollywood annals.The audience is shown a gangland killing (and killer) in the first minute of the story. The remaining 88 minutes of this debacle are devoted to tracking him down, 1954 style. Forced interrogations lasting hours,police harassment,police brutality, a certain sense of pleasure in carrying out assignments,all lead one one to wonder why it took until 1966 for the Supreme Court to issue its now famous Miranda ruling.Anyway, there are ...

The bad news first: this is NOT in widescreen.
Aside from that, (and the fact it's not available on DVD), this is an AWESOME movie for Dragnet fans. That is, for fans of the ORIGINAL Dragnet (1951).

This set along with the 16 episode set from Raintree Home video (can be purchased at amazon)essentially contain every episode that is currently out there (for the original series). This Brentwood set (like the Raintree set) doesn't look great but is certainly watchable and in places quite good. It is a shame that the original Dragnet series will probably never recieve a solid dvd release.

These are classic Jack Webb Dragnet episodes. They are a bit dated, and predictable. The picture quality is good but not great. The same cast members show up as different characters in various episodes which was typical for the series. I found the 20 episodes very entertaining, and will likely watch them again in the future.
