If they had called it something else then it probably wouldn't get anyone's attention as it's a pretty straight forward & predictable american cop show. There's a bit of eye-candy to keep the interest going but that's really the only good thing about it  If you are going to watch it, don't expect much. My recommendation is to watch The Shield with Vic Mackay  'Al Capone with a badge'. It's a shame NYPD Blue has finished as IMO that is the best cop show ever. |
IIRC crimes on Kojak were ussually solved by dilligent policing/brute force, i.e. one guy going around all the shops in New York asking if they happened to sell a blue biro to a man with a moustache. Is any of that left?
