The Roaring Twenties (drama, starring Rex Reason and Donald
May)
(ABC Primetime, 1960 - 1962;
ABC Reruns aired in 1962)
[Warner Brothers' answer to the successful "The Untouchables"
got the time period right, but the rest of the formula was
never fully realized. Rex Reason and Donald May played
newspaper reporters in prohibition-day New York City. The
female interest (similar to "Miss Kitty" in Gunsmoke) was
Dorothy Provine who played the role of a nightclub singer;
Gary Vinson played a young copy boy at the newspaper (shades
of "Jimmy Olson" on "The Adventures of Superman")]
