By popular demand, here's an extended edition of this video featuring the additional crossovers with Emergency! drive.google.com/file/d/1qNdysNfwvMa9OnA8bogjOxaLhUDnLI_x/view?usp=share_link

These shows were beyond amazing. Jack Webb knew what he was doing, and thats what makes these shows stand out above others. We don't get this quality of acting anymore and it's sad.

Adam-12, SWAT, Emergency!, The Rookies and Dragnet, best shows of their time!

Adam 12 was great. Recently started watching all of them again. Love it…

In "Personnel: The Shooting" clip, the first officer(Stevens) brought in on a stretcher is Marco Lopez. Yes, the same Marco Lopez from Emergency! He played several roles in various Dragnet episodes and was also a stand in for Jack Webb. He also went by the name Marco Antonio.

Between July 2018 and January 2020, I hiked across the USA from Florida to Santa Monica, California. I didn't hitchhike, I walked. It took 18 months. In January, before all of the pandemic stuff unfolded, I was having coffee in a Starbuck's in Los Angeles. I had the pleasure of sitting next to two Los Angeles police officers. We chatted about a lot of things, the homeless problem, etc. In the course of talking to them I mentioned Adam-12. I was 60 years old, they appeared to be around 30. They didn't know what Adam-12 was, never heard of it!!!! I was terribly amused at this. I had my laptop open so I pulled up some clips. These two guys were laughing so loud it drew looks from all over the shop. I told them I couldn't believe they didn't make Adam-12 mandatory viewing when they joined. Life is so funny.

It amazes me still that a buttoned down guy like Jack Webb was married to a Hotness like Julie London

Adam-12 was a must see every week, the season started in September and went til December, these days you watch a whole season in one weekend - no patience. There was a rhythm to life, shared with everyone else.

Officer Reed was my first crush.

Remember all those shows.

This has to be the best crossover there is.

That's Marco Lopez,later to play himself on "Emergency!"

Kent McCord made sevsn appearances on Dragnet, including two as "Officer Reed," during the 1966-'67 and 1967-'68 seasons before Adam 12 began.

Remember the Adam-12 spinoff that was to have Frank Sinatra, Jr., as a regular in a state office that sued people for consumer fraud (such as phony cancer-curing electric belts)? I'm glad that didn't go anywhere. By far my favorites are Adam-12 and Emergency!. I liked Dragnet; but that was before I discovered Adam-12, which deserves to be more famous than Dragnet.

This is when it get's crazy. In an early episode of Emergency! Malloy and Reed were talking to Dixie at Rampart. Then in another Series Gage was trying to find out what happened on the last episode of Adad-12. Jack Webb had a weird metaverse thing going on.

There's an episode of Dragnet I remember, I think it was called Anatomy of a Pig. It started with an officer graduating from the Academy, through the birth of one of his kids, on up to the day he is killed in the line of duty.

All of these characters are all over film noir as well. In fact Jack Webb was in "He Walked by Night" (great movie), a film that became the blueprint for police procedurals, like Adam-12 and Dragnet.

I miss these shows.

This was one of my favorite shows as a kid. Later in life, I met Martin Milner when I helped him push his broke down car out of an intersection in Fallbrook California. It was back in 1973. I lived there for several years before moving away.

"Steve" Malloy? Guess that was the original plan until they went with Pete. Both top-notch shows.

Both shows, Dragnet, and Adam-12, were great! Some people think they're corny, but they should watch them again. There was wisdom in a lot of those shows.

Great compilation.

Thanks Captain , Darn NBC Universal being Stingy . I watched all 3 Shows back then on T.V. , I paid my Dues . Keep up the good work Capt .

There is another little show that Jack Webb Produced. Project U.F,.O. He was the narrarater.

Adam-12 also visited Emergency! As a cameo and weirdly, referenced an episode Gage missed the end of because of a call.

i am a car guy and love these shows from the 70`s .. i am from the 70`s ..

There’s at least one more when Kent McChord played an undercover cop.

Dammit, now I want to watch the rest of those episodes so I know how it turns out.

I liked both shows Dragnet I liked the very early shows

Thank you!

I find this pretty awkward. Reed and Malloy, especially Reed, were played so naturally, while the Dragnet acting was always like something from a comic-book. They don't mix well.

great site i just subscribed and i hit the like button

Do the two Emergency, Adam-12 crossovers. They're very interesting and very, very strange.

Word around the campfire is that’s Tom Brady’s daddy 🔥

Martin Milner had a pretty good film career. He was in one of my favorite movies, "Mr. Roberts".

And Colonel Harry Potter as well

Both quality shows which had a major influence in the decisions of many individuals to desire a career in law enforcement

Did anyone else notice that Mac ( in this scene) has lost the ' rockers ' on his stripes?

if you have never seen it look up " copper clapper caper " by jack web and johnny carson ..

You left out "The Shooting Board" when Sgt. Friday nailed a young man at a laundromat trying to wire a vending machine. Sgt. MacDonald was one of those investigators at the laundromat who found the suspect's bullet fired at Friday before he was hit and later died.

Marco Lopez is in one of the crossovers.

Did dragnet ever crossover with emergency?

When California was relatively ‘sane’. LAPD and SFPD are in sore need of platoons Sgt.Friday

Friday doesn't play. I wish Ironside could have done a guest spot crossover and gone off on Malloy( who thinks he knows everything). Tell Malloy to shut up and listen and learn.

will be fixing grain/blur and upgrading to hd 1440p to be specific

2:45 Snitch!

Actually, Kent McCord was an officer ON Dragnet. He was so good that the producers carried his character over to a new show called "ADAM 12."

As a fan of both shows that's pretty cool stuff, thanks! I always liked Adam 12 more then Dragnet because it was more violent, like the time Malloy and Reed took down George Floyd.

Clones

There's no such thing as a television "crossover".
