Editor's Note
One of the first TV cop shows, DRAGNET rose to popularity in the 1950s, then managed to cast its spell over many subsequent generations of viewers. The familiar theme tune opens the four episodes included here, and is followed by some tough crimes to solve for Detective Joe Friday (Jack Webb). In these installments in the series, the stiff, stoic Friday has to deal with furniture thieves, a gruesome murder, local bars besieged by armed robbers, and a dead secretary, while always relying on his oft-repeated mantra for getting to the bottom of each case: "Just the facts, ma'am."
