One thing that bugs me


The citizens of Los Angeles are almost always portrayed as morons on this show. Is this really how cops see the people they protect & serve?

reply

As far as I'm concerned you're the moron.

I'm watching these on COZI-TV again after years of not seeing it and I noticed that I'm seeing the same actors over and over, like he's bringing in old friends. One of the guys on Adam-12 was in this group.

Webb was loyal to actors who were able to work fast and follow his idiosyncratic direction.

Seems Webb had his own repetory company- Del Moore & Virginia Gregg are just a couple I've seen in several episodes. Also Don Dubbins (who co- starred with Webb in "The DI" & Bobby Troup, who was married to Webb's ex- wife Julie London! Nice to know there were no hard feelings.

reply

Virginia Gregg played 13 different characters on Dragnet, 6 different characters on Adam-12, and 6 more on Emergency.

Shut up josh.

I have lived in the Los Angeles area for 63 years. What would you like to call ME, Josh?

Webb obviously had no "hard feelings" concerning Bobby Troup & Julie London. Ever notice his wrist bracelet? Ms. London gave that to him during their marriage, and he never took it off, even on camera. Troup appears in some "Dragnet" episodes and of course, Webb later produced "Emergency," which co-starred the couple. I've read that Webb even spent every Christmas Day with the Troups.

May I bone your kipper, Mademoiselle?
