GurKhan and 79thPA, Hill Street Blues is probably what led me into law enforcement in 1987. I'm still in so I guess it was a pretty good show. lol Yep, Renko was my favorite character too. |

I've been watching the Swedish police drama Johan Falk lately, so I'll mention informant Frank Wagner, even though he's not actually a cop. |
