Synopsis


The characters appeared in a series of novels and short stories written by Ed McBain.[1] Lansing portrayed Detective Steve Carella, who worked in Manhattan's 87th precinct.[2]

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 ended on September 10, 1962.[3]
