Description
Part two of a look at the police procedurals of radio drama. While
Dragnet was the âdaddyâ? of procedurals, 21st Precinct was probably an
example of almost pure procedure. Dragnet had characters listeners
could care about. 21st Precinct was much dryer in tone even forsaking
opening and closing music and musical bridges to maintain a sense of a
documentary style approach. The opening voice was always the desk
sergeant mostly portrayed by veteran radio and television actor, Harold
Stone (right).Radio Detective Home Page
