I watched this show growing up and still love it. Great cast and story lines. It really is a time capsule of New York in the 70's in many ways. Although many young views may see it as dated or slow it's worth remembering that this show is over 40yrs old as of this post and like many vintage shows gives a glimpse into that distant past. It also shows a police force changing its attitudes about law enforcement and changing social values. The shows a mix of drama with comedy.. I must agree with another reviewer that the actress who plays his wife was a very strange casting choice. I thing they were attempting to show them as an upwardly mobile couple. the The only thing i don't like is the loud laugh track, which is still used in shows today. Glad they recently released high quality dvd's of this show as previously i had to make do with grainy downloaded copies.
score 9/10
