Pat

p.s.: I can already hear the naysayers galloping in.
The Lone Ranger was both. Law enforcement by reason, gun and sometimes by recruiting the locals to handle their own problems.

Law shows are closely drawn from human interest stories, which is by definition "drama".

Edited: The Lone Ranger wore a Cowboy hat, but he was never a cowboy, but he did ride a horse, and had a local asset in Tonto.
