TV shows and cell phones

[Tero]

You can date a tv show by the cell phones in use, or lack of.

Lewis season 5 and Elementary: Smartphones.

Wallander: Nokias and Ericssons.

80s shows: clunky big cell phone.*

Dragnet: desk phone and notepad.

Dashiell Hammett book/movie. No need to track calls, just ask the operator who called the dead guy's room.

*cityman was in use by 1987
