Adam-12 is a television program which ran from 1968 until 1975 on NBC. The program concentrated on the daily activities of a pair of Los Angeles police officers, veteran Pete Malloy (Martin Milner) and rookie Jim Reed (Kent McCord), and to a lesser extent Sergeant William "Mac" MacDonald (William Boyett). The show was produced by Jack Webb, who also was behind Dragnet and Emergency!. The series was nominally considered a spin-off of Webb's Dragnet 1967, and the Reed and Malloy characters appeared on episodes of the parent program.

Adam Jeremy Williams (Adam 12) was a guitarist for Powerman 5000 but recently left to focus on recording and producing new rock, hip-hop, pop, and jazz artists such as Life the Guardian. He was born in Teaneck, New Jersey where his family resides. He is the son of the author John A. Williams.

Classic police drama created and produced by Jack Webb, who already produced and starred in the highly successful "Dragnet." "Adam-12" followed the careers and lives of two Los Angeles police officers Pete Malloy and Jim Reed. In the early years of the show, Malloy was the veteran, while Reed was an eager young rookie; each had something he could teach the other. Each show followed the pair as they went about their daily beat (with situations ranging from comical and trivial to robberies and criminal investigations); other episodes dealt with specific police issues (such as court cases, debriefings and training rookie cops). As the show's run continued, Reed progressed from a rookie to one of L.A.'s finest, eventually graduating to regular officer status. The show ran seven years and was among the most popular police dramas of all time. Written by Brian Rathjen
