I Want TV "Film Noir" Back!

“Naked City”, that type thing. I loved those bleach blonde “dames” with the big knockers. Dialogue and the narration was great too.

Q

It’s not TV, but the 2005 movie Brick is a modern noir film, set in a high school but using old-school noir film language and style.

I loved Naked City! Dragnet too, and Highway Patrol. Not exactly noir, those two.

The new show Terriers is a bit noirish – it’s on Wednesdays on FX. You might like it, but the knockers are just average. :wink:

Veronica Mars was kind of film noiry.

I just got Naked City disks from Netflix. They screwed something up and Naked City was sent as a bonus.

Johnny Staccato was fun, too. Great gritty atmosphere and a supercool protagonist.

If you’re in Canada, Caprica.
