The first few seasons of Miami Vice.  Towards the end, it kinda became a little too full of itself.  Or at least Don Johnson did.  :)

Definately Cop Rock, or was that 90's?


Just Kidding... another vote for Hill Street Blues

Most definitely Hunter. I thought that Stephanie Kramer (McCall) was a hottie!!! Loved the great chemistry between her and Fred Dryer...  :)

80's Trivia - I also thought Stephanie Kramer was a hottie in the 80's.  Then I saw an episode of 'Hunter' a few months back on TBS, and realized Stephanie had a good makeup artist ;-).

Never was big on the 80's cop dramas, so my answer is 'Police Squad!'.  Was a short-lived series on CBS, I believe...

"Spencer For Hire" mostly because it was filmed here at home in Boston.  (and mom had the biggest crush on his sidekick, Hawk, I believe.)

And Cagney & Lacey.

I liked "Vegas" because Robert Urich was suave. I also liked "C.H.I.P.S" even though Erik Estrada got under my skin.

Did anyone like Magnum P.I.?  It was by far, my favorite 80's detective show. I don't consider it a "Cop" show because he was not a policeman...I say this as I just posted about Cop shows

For that matter...no one mentioned Vegas either.

Another vote here for "Hill Street Blues."  Besides, I had a crush on the guy who played Det. Garibaldi (Ken Olin).  Okay, I still like Ken Olin.

Yes, I do. Edward Woodward was the title character. I saw a rerun with Kevin Spacey as the bad guy on A & E a while back.

"Sledge Hammer!" and "Police Squad!" by far....

As an aside... were'nt both "Matt Houston" and "Magnum" both Private Inverstigators? (Obviously "Magnum" was; the show was "Magnum, P.I") If we are naming favorite P.I.'s, I'd have to say "Simon and Simon". ;) What a babe-dilly-isious man the blonde one was!  I remember him when he played "Brad" on "One Life To Live"... what was his name?

J.C., I'm the president of the "thirtysomething" fan club!  I own every episode on tape, except for one.  (Bravo never showed "Legacy"-the one where Michael and Elliot were almost in a plane crash-after 9-11.)  I watch "Alias" just in case Ken makes an appearance.  (He's the executive producer.)  He's been on the show a few times this season, but they left his storyline open.

C.H.I.P.S would have to be my favorite Cop show in the 80's. I didn't really watch a lot of the other shows.

Anybody remember the show "StingRay"? Came out in like '85 or something. I think that was catagorized as a cop show. It actually wasn't my favorite cop show, but I remember watching it pretty much. I think it only lasted 1 or 2 seasons though.  :-/

Izod, `Stingray` ran in 1986/87 and starred Canadian actor Nic Mancuso.  In the series, he drove a vintage Corvete Stingray got people out of trouble in exchange for a favour that he would collect on in the future.
