The Lineup is an American police drama which aired on CBS radio from 1950 to 1953 and on CBS television from 1954 to 1960.

The television version was set specifically in San Francisco and was produced with the cooperation of the San Francisco Police Department, which received a credit at the close of each episode.  It starred Warner Anderson as Guthrie and Tom Tully as Grebb, who was now an inspector instead of a sergeant, because at the time the series was made, there was no such rank as sergeant in the Bureau of Inspectors, SFPD’s investigative division.  A full inspector was the closest equivalent to the generic detective sergeant the character had been on radio.  The TV version, a CBS Television Production, was filmed on location, using Desilu’s production facilities.  In the final season, the show expanded to an hour, and the Grebb character was replaced by a number of younger officers. Syndicated reruns of the series were broadcast under the title San Francisco Beat.
