Dragnet, the brainchild of Jack Webb, may very well be the most well-remembered, and the best, radio police drama series. From September, 1949 through February 1957, Dragnet's 30 minute shows, broadcast on NBC, brought to radio true police stories in a low-key, documentary style.

Episodes typically open with a potential client calling on Diamond's cash-strapped office and agreeing to his fee of $100 a day plus expenses, or Diamond taking on a case for a former friend or partner. The show made it successfully to tv and David Janssen played Diamond- and if you can ever catch these shows they are pretty good- but so are the radio versions

One of America's most beloved crime dramas in the 30's and 40's, The Shadow's opening lines "Who knows what lurks in the hearts of men.....the Shadow knows" were a catchphrase back in those days. The shadow was a detective who could not be seen or heard unless he chose to be- and each cleverly written script kept listeners in suspense as the shadow uncovered the crime and sent to bad guys packing.
