| | Hill Street Blues - Season 1 | |
Description
From legendary creator/writer Steven Bochco, the multi award-winning Hill
Street Blues is the original pioneering ' TV cop show', that blazed the trail
for later ensemble hits such as NYPD Blue and L.A. Law. One of the most
innovative and critically acclaimed series of its time, this is the story of an
overworked, under-staffed police precinct in an anonymous inner city patterned
after Chicago.
'Let's be careful out there.' So ends each roll-call session at the Hill Street
station house. As the cops and detectives head out onto the streets, Captain
Frank Furillo juggles the delicate balancing act of providing enough protection
for the law-abiding citizens without inciting the neighbourhood gangs and local
criminal elements who are openly hostile towards any police presence. Yet as
dangerous as his inner city precinct can be, Furillo's biggest battles often
involve protecting his own cops from the Public Defender's office, self-serving
bureaucrats, and even each other.
Breathtakingly fast paced, mature, tough, brutal and uncompromising, Hill Street
Blues is a triumph of intelligence and substance. It is quite simply, the most
groundbreaking show in recent memory and is essential viewing for all lovers of
quality entertainment.
