Hill street blues was the best of the bunch. I will never forget the first episode and some of the characters. Lets be careful out there!
A little side story to “Hill Street Blues”. A former Boys Club member of mine, who was Right Guard on our football team (I was Left Tackle), was also a schoolmate of mine in Junior High and High School (the latter where he was a good actor in school plays).
He went to Carnegie Mellon Un. in drama and guess who turned out to be his classmates? Steven Bochco and Bruce Weitz (Hill Street Blues).
Then Mike (Tucker) and his wife, Jill Eikenberry, got guest roles on “HSB” and then later were featured characters in “LA Law”.
Somewhere down the line, his family is some kind of a distant cousin of mine.
Always liked him and he was a tough competitor on the football field.
Small world isn’t it?
