''87th Precinct'' is an American crime drama starring Robert Lansing, Gena Rowlands, and Ron Harper, which aired on NBC on Monday evenings during the 1961–1962 television season. ==Synopsis== The program was based on a number of detective novels by Evan Hunter (under the pen name Ed McBain) that featured Lansing as Detective Steve Carella, who worked in the fictional city of Isola, patterned on Manhattan, New York City. Rowlands played Carella's deaf-mute wife, Teddy. Ron Harper played rookie detective Bert Kling. Other detective roles were portrayed by Gregory Walcott as seasoned veteran Roger Havilland and Norman Fell as the eccentric Meyer Meyer. The ''87th Precinct'' TV series differs from the books in that the series is explicitly set in New York. As well, the character of Roger Havilland in the books is violent, corrupt, and thoroughly disliked by the other members of the squad; for the TV series, he was transformed into an honest and respected veteran officer. ''87th Precinct'' premiered on September 25, 1961, and concluded its first-run episodes on April 30, 1962. Repeats continued until September 10, 1962. It was a creation of Hubbell Robinson Productions. The program faced stiff competition on CBS from ''The Danny Thomas Show'' and its spin-off, ''The Andy Griffith Show''. At the time, ABC aired the second and last season of another detective program, ''Surfside 6'', starring Troy Donahue and Van Williams.〔1961-1961 American network television schedule, Monday evenings〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「87th Precinct (TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
