Highway Patrol (1955-1959)



I fell asleep with the TV on again. Somehow slept through the night and slowly woke up listening to an episode of Highway Patrol with Broderick Crawford.

A late '50's series. Seemed to follow the Dragnet model, but instead of using real stories of the Highway Patrol, they used plots that were so unremarkable you assumed they were true. Which apparently worked pretty well.

Of course, I've only seen about three episodes. Maybe the others were way more dramatic.
