Check this out. If you run on public transportation, your chances are slim to catch a TV screen and enjoy some "Dragnet" while riding. That's because the Orlando based "Transit Television Network" is adding the original "Dragnet" series to their schedule. In case you wonder, TTN is an advertisement system that runs on the public transportation systems in Orlando, Milwaukee and Chicago. During selected days and depending on the route, you may catch a classic episode of "Dragnet" and other TV shows like "I Love Lucy" or "Bonanza". However the advertisement system is supposed to bombard you with more commercials every hour. Included are local advertisement and public service announcements. Also the fact that you will encounter a "Travel Trivia" or "Race The Clock" game of challenge.
