I Spy Michael Cole from "The Mod Squad", Pat Carroll from "Too Close For Comfort", and John Fielder (the voice of "Piglet")...This show always had such talented guest stars!📺📼📀📺📼📀
Even though my gramps & pop were cops all their lives, I only became a cop w/34 years 35 on September 30 of this year, but I wanted to be a cop just like Joseph Waumbach, the LAPD cop who wrote these, I actually saw him on a training in 1983 in LA . I watched every show when it started in the 70's, and I actually met Mr Waumbach, and shook his hand in 1983 . All my brothers & cousins also became cops.
Only a few years after the Stonewall riot (a RIOT shouldn't be held up as a proud moment for any just cause), this episode was exploring the concept of treating homosexuals as people, and as deserving of justice as anyone else. Things were changing for the better in 1973.
Very well-written, and must have been fairly ground-breaking at the time. I'm glad they were on point with the direction and message of the episode though, and the long road ahead. Another stellar performance by the always watchable Darren McGavin. Thank you for making this available.
Thanks for posting this story. I really like seeing tv stories and movies from the 1970s and early 1980s. I really liked how the older Det. Hallet was open-minded and tolerant. It was so sad that the younger Det. Baker was so homophobic.

Hats off to the suits at NBC to take a risk like this.
Darren McGavin is a bit like James Stewart. You can watch ANYTHING with him in it and it's always good.

Virginia Gregg! She always played a nosy old bat on every other episode of Dragnet
Odd, McGavin's superior in this is Barry Atwater, the vampire he chased around in the original Night Stalker movie.

Fantastic episode for its time, dealing with a subject that most productions shied away from at that time!
Thank you so much for this great flick in the 1970s ❤
Thanks for posting. Script pleasantly way ahead of its time
Thanks for uploading this show. I have not seen it since I was a young kid maybe 10 years old. It was on at
"Maybe she's just trying to work out her own life... just like everybody else".
Thank You for posting this! I LOVE POLICE STORY!!

This was such a great show. This episode was so well written too. I am definitely living in the wrong decade. 😢
