Talk:Mark VII Limited

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Universal Studios owns the "Dragnet" property. They own it because:

1) Webb sold all his rights to MCA Television for $5,000,000 in a deal that closed on December 31, 1953. The deal included all episodes produced to date and to come.

2) MCA-TV acquired Universal Studios in 1961.

Universal hired Webb in late 1965 to produce, direct and star in a "Dragnet" TV-movie. This led directly to the 1967 revival.
