I liked all the “Dragnet” series. Also the movie which was funny.

Jack Webb was very conservative but was also a big government tight control type. In some of the early episodes he totally violates suspects rights.

In fairness a lot of the “suspect’s rights” you are likely referring to had not yet been invented by the Supreme Court back then.

The second run in the 70’s had a lot of bizarre drug stories. Like Blue-Boy.

I remember Harry Callahan inflicting pain on a perp to find out where he buried a girl alive. I approve of his methodology
