Barney Miller

Show Summary

Aired: 1975 - 1982
Show Type: Live Action
Country of Origin: US

The trials and tribulations of Captain Barney Miller
of New York City's 12th Precinct. Others around the
station house were Detective Sergeant Amenguale, the Puerto Rican; Detective Stanley Wojohowicz, the naive,trusting one; Detective Nick Yemana, the one who made the awful coffee; Detective Phil Fish, the old one who acted and sounded like every breath might be his last;
Detective Ron Harris, the wisecracking, ambitious,
nicely dressed one; Detective Arthur Dietrich, the
know-it-all; Inspector Frank Lugar, the often incoherent superior; Officer Carl Levitt, the uniformed officer who wanted to become a detective; and Lt. Scanlon, of Internal Affairs and always trying to find some dirt on the 12th Precinct.

Aside from The Honeymooners, Barney Miller was the sit-com that most approximated a one-act play.

Almost every episode took place in one room of a rundown, filthy police station in Greenwich Village.

I believe this show should be in the 70s section as it ran during that decade mainly.

My dad used to watch this show religiously, along with MASH and Adam 12.

Whatever happened to Barbara Barrie? I may be wrong, but I recall she'd died some time after BM was cancelled.
