Where's Det Sgt Snow?
In wintry places Detective Snow is a great helper to human cops, almost as good as a K9. Stupid criminals leave perfect tracks. Stupider criminals slip on the ice and faceplant. After the cop finishes laughing, he can cuff the unconscious idiot.
Det Snow also does off-duty private security work for people who want to spot peeping toms or sneak thieves or squatters.
How come Det Snow never appears in cop shows or stories?
I absorb a lot of old radio and TV cop shows. The straightforward good vs evil is a helpful vaccine against the multi-layered brain-dissolving confusion of modern demonic media.
I can think of
only one episode where Det Snow is shown at work, and even there he's not the main problem-solver.
TV is understandable. TV is filmed in LA where it never snows. But that's no excuse for radio.
