The Lineup was a hard-boiled drama. Like Dragnet, it realistically showed police doing their jobs. The show always began with a police sergeant ordering suspects to stand at attention so that the victim, behind one-way glass, could try to identify the criminal.

The series began as a summer replacement for The FBI in Peace and War in 1950, but soon got its own time slot.
