DA, The (NBC 1971-1972, Robert Conrad, Harry Morgan)
Crime drama series The DA focused on the exploits of crusading district attorney Paul Ryan. The show had two segments: first, Deputy D.A. Ryan and his team would investigate the crime, then Ryan would serve as prosecuting attorney. His courtroom adversary in most cases was Public Defender Katherine Benson, representing the accused. Bob Ramerez acted as Paul’s main investigator whilst Charlotte was his secretary.
The courtroom part of the show was done with Ryan doing voice-over narration to explain legal terminology and procedures to the audience.
