HOW can anyone like this show ?!?!?!

Not only does Dragnet have the worst actors they could get (with the exception of the wonderful Harry Morgan) but the stories are so phony and unrealistic it makes me cringe! The Blue Boy dude freaking out on acid was a joke as was all the other people who used and their reactions. Oh and the people who were high on pot and their kid drowned in the tub? Give me a break !! But the worst was the guy Wally who was beating up his kid and his wife's reaction to it. I sure hope she didn't leave her day job! Sorry but the show just sucks.

That's fine. Everybody likes different things.

Just remember before you judge that the show is a classic for a good reason.

If you don't get it then just STHU! Your appraisal is as asinine as any I've ever read. This is THE best cop show ever and set the table for all to come. If you're too dense to get that, perhaps you can catch a rerun of The Kardashians.

I loved Dragnet as a kid but even as a small child I knew how corny and campy it was. I think a lot of people who watched it enjoyed the kitsch.

How old are you? And did you see this on TV when it aired? I know about shows that suck and most of them are on TV today.

It is stupid but it's fun to watch.
