Episode 80: Dragnet - The Big Chance

Hello and welcome back to the time machine. Today we are again reviewing my favorite shows from the first 100 episodes of Dragnet. We will join Sgt’s Friday and Romero on a dark case. A patrol officer has gone missing while on duty. His vehicle abandoned, radio still in operation, and no clues as to what happened to him. 

The classic intro of dragnet is probably one of the most famous chord progressions in movie and television history. Written by Walter Schumann, it is named “Danger Ahead”. This name is especially fitting for this thrilling episode. So please sit back, try to relax, and travel back to 72 years to August 24th, 1950 with Dragnet and The Big Chace.
