Before the recent "Reality TV" glut, there was "Reality Radio" and Night
Watch was there. This show is a straight crime documentary with no music,
sound effects, or actors. Police reporter Don Reid rode in a prowl car on the night shift with officers
from the Culver City, California police department. While wearing a hidden
microphone, he captures the sounds and voices of real life drama. From the
worried child to the hardened criminal, their stories come through loud and
clear. The names were changed to protect identities, but everything else in this
gripping series is real. Text From www.otrfan.com/
