Sgt. Joe Friday and his partner Ben Romano are trying to solve a murder... and several clues are found in the form of dead canaries, who have all been killed in the same way as the victim... The Big Canary - is the case under investigation in this outstanding police drama starring Jack Webb. Today the staccato delivery of the lines may sound a little corny, but back in the late 1940s and all through the 50's, Dragnet was thought to be the most realistic police drama on radio... and television as well. Enjoy more Dragnet episodes in the "Mystery - Detective - Crime" Playlist on this podcast.
