Show notes

Beginning a new theme - police procedurals. The detective genreâs most recent sub-genre is the police procedural. Radio followed suit with the introduction of Dragnet in 1949 created by Jack Webb (right) and its influence both on radio detectives as well as the printed word continues to be felt. Iâll provide examples of what makes a story a police procedural. Next week Iâll continue the theme.
