Critics' reviews

"Series television rarely gets better than this... Bochco has been able to maintain the cliché-breaking surprises he has become famous for."

Minneapolis Star Tribune
"The complex series, sometimes outrageously funny -- if you like black humor -- is a human drama filled with pathos, courtroom hijinks and a spattering of romance."

Kay Gardella: New York Daily News
"It is better filmmaking than most of today's theatrical films and more adult than 90 percent of what passes for adult entertainment on the big screen."

Miami Herald
"A sharp, intelligent, splendidly entertaining venture that deftly draws upon a world of callousness and commitment, long hours and short fuses."

Clifford Terry: Chicago Tribune
"It is Hill Street Blues revisited, complete with hand-held cameras, overlapping dialogue and meandering story lines. But, once again, the techniques are handled superbly."

John J. O'Connor: The New York Times
