List of episodes

I've removed the list, for a number of reasons:

It was quite incomplete; see the external link in the article that goes to a page with almost 500 episodes
Even as incomplete as it was, it was dominating the article in terms of space
Per WP:NOT, Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collector of information.
If the information is really worth keeping in Wikipedia, it should be in a separate article.

WIKIPEDIA problem

I found this only by typing out in the Wikipedia Search the entire title, beginning with YOURS. Simply typing "Johnny Dollar" went nowhere on Wikipedia (and, I might add, some people might spell it Johnnie). 71.178.242.140 (talk) 00:14, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The first problem has been resolved. Someone created a disambiguation page for "Johnny Dollar" that lists the radio program first, followed by two people by that name.Eddie Blick (talk) 21:27, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

two things

here are some similar shows also, when listening to these shows, I am struck by how it is assumed that gun control is normal - if you own a pistol, it is registered with the police

Johnny Dollar Biography

Hey, I was interested in seeing if Johnny Dollar's brief bio could be included. In the "Bennett Matter" Johnny testifies at trial that he has been an investigator for 10 years, before that he was in the Marine Corps for four years (presumably during World War II?), and before that he was a Detective 2nd grade with the NYPD. 2604:2D80:5185:8700:7478:8CA0:2108:427 (talk) 16:34, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
