Barney Miller: Fan Favorites (Full Frame)

Last Minute Sales & Specials

Situation comedy about a New York City's precinct captain and his multi-ethnic band of officers. The series won several Emmy Awards including Outstanding Comedy Series. Beloved by fans and critics, Emmy-winning "Barney Miller" rose above the prime-time pack as one of the funniest yet most realistic police series ever. Set in New York City's 12th Precinct, this sly show featured a revolving door of wacky eccentrics and an unlikely band of detectives headed by Captain Barney Miller (Hal Linden). Everyone's favorite motley crew included grumpy old man Det. Phil Fish (Abe Vigoda, star of his own spin-off, TV's "Fish"), Puerto Rican stand-up comedian Det. Sgt. Chano Amenguala (Gregory Sierra), gullible Det. Stanley "Wojo" Wojoiehowicz (Max Gail), Zen-like Asian Det. Nick Yemana (Jack Soo), outspoken African-American Det. Ron Harris (Ron Glass) and lone female Det. Janice Wentworth (Linda Lavin, TV's "Alice"). Fueled by sharp dialogue and a refreshingly diverse cast, "Barney Miller: The First Season" proves crime doesn't pay - but it sure can be funny.
