“Emergency” is one of the very FEW successful TV Shows that ALL Character(in real life) developed Life-Long Friendships.
It kind of helps if they were already married to each other (Bobby Troup and Julie London)
Emergency was a Jack Webb produced show. Julie London was his ex-wife (1947-1954). Troup was a jazz pianist and song writer who wrote the song “Route 66”.
From what I have read, Webb was a huge fan of jazz and very loyal to old friends and family.
I would say DRAGNET for the remake of an old TV series ecept, Hollywood would just screw it up again.
They tried it the early 2000s and it was awful.
