Dragnet went to television in January 1952 after a successful TV preview on Chesterfield Sound-Off Time a few weeks earlier. The show actually ran simultaneously on radio and TV from 1952 - 1956, continuing on television through 1959. After a seven-year hiatus, it returned as Dragnet ’67 to distinguish itself from its own reruns. This first major real-life police drama series was so successful that it remains in syndication some 30 to 40 years later. 

The show went to the movies in a 1980s spoof with Dan Aykroyd in the lead role of Sgt. Joe Friday -- the role Webb played on both radio and television. 

The original sponsor of the radio series was Fatima Cigarettes and, later, Chesterfield Cigarettes. The composer of the original Dragnet theme was Walter Schumann, which included “dum-de-dum-dum,” possibly the most famous four-note introduction since Beethoven’s 5th. 

Sgt. Friday’s sidekick was originally played by Barton Yarborough both on radio and TV. His untimely death shortly after the first TV telecast opened up the role to Barney Philips. Herb Ellis picked up the part in the first fall season, followed by Ben Alexander, who played officer Frank Smith for 7 years. Harry Morgan was Jack Webb’s sidekick in the 1967-1970 series as Officer Bill Gannon. 

And those are “just the facts, ma’am.”

1999 - “Rome is a magic track for me,” exclaimed the new holder of the world outdoor mile record. Hicham El Guerrouj from Morocco was in track competition at the Golden Gala Track Meet at the Olympic Stadium in Rome, Italy. His time of 3:43.13 was 1.26 seconds faster than the previous record of 3:44.39 set by Noureddine Morceli of Algeria in 1993. Second place Noah Ngeny of Kenya also beat Morceli’s record as he ran neck and neck with El Guerrouj, finishing at 3:43.40. El Guerrouj shattered the world record for 1,500 meters just one year earlier at the same stadium, running the race in a record 3 minutes and 26 seconds. That record was also previously held by Morceli. El Guerrouj says he hopes to run even faster in the future, lowering the 1500 meter record to 3:24 and the mile to 3:42 or even 3:41. Soon he’ll be running at the speed of light!

2000 - Scary Movie opened. Directed by funnyman Keenen Ivory Wayans, Scary Movie is a horror-film spoof (Scream, I Know What You Did Last Summer, The Blair Witch Project, The Sixth Sense, The Matrix). If you can get past the strong crude sexual humor, language, drug use and violence, the flick is great fun for the entire family. Most U.S. audiences did manage to get past those drawbacks and spent $42.35 million on the film its opening weekend.
