	Off Balance: Youth, Race & Crime in the News
		Another series of studies showed that Whites committed more violent crimes than were represented in television crime stories of violent crime.
		Studies found that crimes by adults against youth are underreported, and the public thinks youth commit a far larger share of all crime than they actually do.
		Crime stories need more depth, length and breadth to help the viewer make sense of why crime happens in a particular way, and to particular people.

	Crime Story (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		CRIME STORY is on the list of my top 10 all-time favorite TV shows, in spite of the changing of locales.
		This show started off as a dead serious crime series with occasional intellectual references to remind you that it was on a slightly higher plane than the average cop show, then it wound up taking a hard turn into buffoonery.
		Crime Story never jumped, but Pauly's LSD trip after the two of them got nuked is a low in television drama, even for the eighties.

	TV
		Looking back over the history of crime shows on television, the roots of the current "reality-based" cop shows are evident.
		Crime shows over the decades of the 1960s and 1970s became more comic with the bad guys being fought by the likes of the Incredible Hulk, the Bionic Woman and the Six Million Dollar Man. Actual cop sitcoms developed in the 1970s as well: Barney Miller, Fish, and Holmes and Yoyo for example.
		This overarching framework narrows the focus considerably of what will be chosen for the show, and ensures that the focus remains on street crime, on action filled and violent crimes which are not necessarily the greatest threat facing the American public but merely the most television worthy.

	Movie Info for Crime Story [TV Series] on MSN Movies
		Crime Story was a valiant attempt by Miami Vice producer Michael Mann to present a compelling police drama series in a serialized fashion.
		Introduced as a two-hour TV movie on September 18, 1986, the weekly, hour-long series was initially set in Chicago in 1963.
		Although the ratings for Crime Story were mediocre, NBC had faith in the series and kept it alive for two years.

	MMI Movie Review: Crime Story DVD
		I came across this TV show once in the fall of 1987, it was shot like a movie, and had a style all its own, with a jazz beat soundtrack that kept routine scenes electric.
		"Crime Story" told its cops and mobster story gangster style, brutal and grittier than anything on the television in the mid eighties.
		Watching "Crime Story" now you can see how the development of the series struggled in the beginning with a mixed bag of production values varying from show to show.

		Trivia: The theme music used for the series was an updated version of the hit song "Runaway" recorded by the original singer Del Shannon.

		A recurring problem with DNA contamination and errors at the Washington State Patrol crime labs has prompted a call for a legislative review and sparked a debate about whether a law enforcement agency should be running the labs.

		Italian crime novels are, more than for most countries, divided into those written by Italians and the myriad of novels written by English, American, and other writers about Italy.
		The Italian books that I've been reading lately include a very noir series by Massimo Carlotto, set in Padua and Venice, and Gianrico Carofiglio (set in the city of Bari, in the Puglia region--the heel of the boot of Italy).
		One thing that I found particularly interesting in the plot and especially in the resolution of the story and in a very telling Author's Note at the end is what turns out to be an overarching theme of the book: Italian politics, and in particular prison politics.

		When the first season of Crime Story ended spectacularly in the Nevada desert, it was anyone's guess what season 2 would do for an encore.
		We can be grateful, however, that the series' pop-music soundtrack (chosen by the great Al Kooper, credited as "Guy Who Picks Music for the Show") remains intact and unchanged as an essential ingredient to one of the best TV shows of the 1980s.
		Though it lasted only two seasons, fans and critics still consider CRIME STORY to be one of the most uncompromising and influential action dramas in television history.

		Playing Jame "Buffalo Bill" Gumb, the wannabe-transsexual serial killer Jodie Foster hunts (with more than a little assistance from Hannibal Lector), Levine was such an unsettling, creepy presence that an ordinary slasher movie villain like Jason or Michael Myers is pretty much rendered meaningless.
		Born in Cleveland, Ted Levine is a veteran of the Steppenwolf Theater in Chicago, the home of such other formidable screen presences as John Malkovich, Willem Dafoe, and Gary Sinise.
		Recently, he starred as the chief of staff in a psychiatric hospital on TV's Wonderland, which, sadly, was considered too controversial for network television and quickly taken off the air.
