Just rewatched all of NYPD Blue for the first time since it was originally released. Still one of, if not the best cop shows ever. Brilliant acting and scripts.
That show was so damn good, from top to bottom. The writing, the plots, the character arcs, and the acting. Not just the leads, though. That show was made great by the endless revolving door of episode actors. That perp in this scene was just fantastic. The industry is full of great actors who were worthy of more than their one off roles.
@@johnsilva9139 his name is Phil Lamarr. He was on the sketch tv show Mad TV. He does a lot of voice acting in animated comedy like Futurama and Family Guy. He was in Pulp Fiction and a lot of other movies. Funny dude and talented actor.
Not necessarily as my favorite line in that show was when he and Sylvia were in the shower and Sipowitz said “Boy that’s gonna be clean!” Fell off the couch.
I still wish they'd have given us at least a full season or more with Andy at the helm of the squad. Would've been so cool to see that story line unfold.
Oh how I miss this show. Possibly the best cop show ever, writing was great, characters were so good, even the one my wife and I didn't like(won't say who she was)
The problem is by keeping his job, Danny will put himself in a position to get killed which is what he wanted or at the very least didn’t care if it happened. Andy survived because he had a job he loved to keep him going. He hoped that would be what Danny needed but unfortunately it wasn’t enough.
Technically Ricky had a leave of absence for a planned family thing (birth of a child maybe). When he left it was understood his character would return the next season.
@@paisleyprince5280 It wasn’t a leave of absence, he left the show. He left because he wanted to be with his family, expecially his wife. She had just suffered a miscarriage and he wanted to be with her. It was never the plan to have him return the next season.
From the glances Connie gave Andy, you can tell that even then she was enamored by him, and perhaps even more based on what we know will occur next season.
It's a pity Kim Delaney does get much high-profile work anymore. Admittedly, she's had a problem with alcohol in the past, but it has never much affected her work. Many male performers have notorious, ongoing affairs with the bottle and drugs, but those are soon forgotten. Her performances were very effective many times.
For the same reason shows cast women who look like Kim Delaney to play female cops but then cast men who look like Dennis Franz to play male cops. Shows are written and produced by old guys for old guys.
Actually, in the full episode, it was sold to a vendor who resold it. Andy got it from the guy who gave it to his child. Presumably, the clasp was fixed during this time.
I thought the same thing a few weeks ago lol I was an extra on SVU a number of years ago, in one scene was getting arrested in another scene I was det. My brother said how do they get away with that, I said I'm an extra nobody looking at me lol
You should have 7, Hill Street Blues(where Sipowicz was created) and Law and Order Criminal Intent, where Vincent D'Onofrio excelled at playing his character different than any other before. His character has Asperger Syndrome.
@@Wishes890great comment.... I was too young to watch Hill Street Blues (but i have heard it was Really good), and yeah I did like Criminal intent (in fact all the Law and Orders).. Those are definitely nice additions!
@@craigkennedy432 I definitely recommend you watch HSB, it was meant to be a comedy, which you can see in the 1st episode, then became a terrific drama. I, sadly can't say I am too young to have watched it when it aired😭
1:40... Well, perhaps God was not busy s.where else. Perhaps it was God trying to get Danny on a different path so that [SPOILERS] he does not die in the line of duty a few seasons later
This show had the best performances from its guest stars. Sydney another great one. Wonder what happened to him. I assume that when u walk into a show like this, day one it raises your game.
Any reason why Danny should have his job saved? It's so strange watching this sequence of events on the show. He beats a suspect and nearly blows the case, yet the audience is supposed to be cheering for him to keep his job. Why? Cops who behave this way lose their job for a reason, several in fact.
Because this was how Bill Clark (ex-NYPD detective, NYPD Blue advisor) used to do things (as a highly decorated cop): if the guy's guilty and needs a beating to give it up - so be it. This was thought to be a moral position, as opposed to giving out beatings when you weren't sure the suspect was guilty or not. In addition, NYPD Blue also had moments, like the character of Det. Vince Gotelli, who in one episode beat up a guy who turned out not to be guilty (it was played for laughs, with Vince repeatedly saying "I beat his balls off!"), and Sipowicz et al made sure he wasn't punished for it.
What platform is this on? It would be fun to review. They were always so hot and cold with the writing, too much, WAY too much preachy BS. All tolled a solid drama, and brilliantly funny at times.
Fancy is still angry that a black guy got the crap beat out of him in his squad, and that ultimately the end result of Andy fixing it is that Danny gets away with it. Fancy is torn between loyalty to his guys, in this case Danny, and doing the right thing when he sees someone get beat, especially a black guy, and mixed in with that is the knowledge that the guy who got beat was a murderer who probably deserved a bit of it. So yeah, I think do what you want is reasonable under the circumstances.
Lost in this amazing scene by a world class actor in a top notch show is the absurdity of Christianity - celebrating a human sacrifice, its immoral principle of vicarious redemption and the honoring the of this insanity by ritually pretending to "eat" the body of the deceased and "drink" his blood. Christianity is without question the most pathological and most evil cult ever invented by humans. The delusion that there is a god watching over who decides, periodically, to step in is pathetic and embarrassing.

Andy Sipowicz was one of the greatest cops ever portrayed onscreen. Bravo Dennis Franz 👏🏼
I disagree , i like Joe Friday. Joe never beat a guy who he KNEW couldn't fight back, not like the sniveling coward sipowitz!
Dennis Franz the best.
Just rewatched all of NYPD Blue for the first time since it was originally released. Still one of, if not the best cop shows ever. Brilliant acting and scripts.
Hi. I agree with your opinion of NYPD Blue. Where did you find it, after all these years? I spoilt love to watch it again, through the eyes of 2023.
@@christinevickers1457it’s on Hulu

Absolutely. The actor playing the perp was perfect. Don't know who he is but I hope he went on to a successful career.

sipowicz's ass scenes jumped the shark!
Not necessarily as my favorite line in that show was when he and Sylvia were in the shower and Sipowitz said “Boy that’s gonna be clean!” Fell off the couch.
Phil Lamer is a treasure and has been killing it since Mad TV over 20 years ago. Dude is what you call a working character actor. Respect
Man, I can't believe Static Shock and Green Lantern killed a dude!
@@flamingmonkeyxii Don't forget he was also that overzealous delivery guy.
@@AB-ez4rm that one who made a mess all over that car?
And a damned good interstellar beurocrat…
Samurai Jack got captured.
That guy playing the perp is a really good actor.
He was Marvin in Pulp Fiction.
Legendary voice actor also. Started on MadTV
@@PaulEMozalso Hermes on Furturama
I didn't care for his hairstyle, but he's a good actor.
Are you high.
I hope Josh told Fancy that he (Josh) just witnessed the most incredible bit of Detective work ever done.
One of my favorite NYPD Blue scenes. Sidney was a great character
The real craft of acting! Phenomenal!
I still wish they'd have given us at least a full season or more with Andy at the helm of the squad. Would've been so cool to see that story line unfold.
I wish the show had brought the actress who played Connie back for season 12. Such a missed opportunity
😢@@eijiniizuma6184
If this is not the best cop show ever, it's way up there near the top. Love when Andy sweats a guy in the box.
Charlotte Ross was a Fox!
Still looks good too
Damn right.
Hell yes...fucking beautiful and sexy
Still is. She doesn't age.
And her hooking up with sipowitz is one of the most ridiculous storylines of all time
Dennis Franz was born to play a cop!
He did a great job in the movie Dressed to Kill before NYPDB.
@@ScooterOnHisWay2024 How about Carmine in Die Hard 2? 😄
and a movie director in body double
Hill Street Blues. So good he played two characters and then spun out to his own show.
@@Rick-zl3zp Beverly Hills Buntz! lol
Oh how I miss this show. Possibly the best cop show ever, writing was great, characters were so good, even the one my wife and I didn't like(won't say who she was)
Agreed. But check out BBC’s Between The Line, as well as Line of Duty.
Both are awesome.
Great scene. Thanks for sharing. Glad to see Connie start in the squad. Those were some of my favorite episodes where Andy and Connie get together.
She actually played another character ( a cops wife ) one time in season one.
The problem is by keeping his job, Danny will put himself in a position to get killed which is what he wanted or at the very least didn’t care if it happened. Andy survived because he had a job he loved to keep him going. He hoped that would be what Danny needed but unfortunately it wasn’t enough.

Love this series. Good stories, good acting all round. Love to see more like this.
One of the best t.v. shows and all the characters in the show were written very well and the actors just awesome.
Andy's brilliance is in high relief here; he broke the perp without laying a hand on him.
Ummmm.... the perp was beaten already.
From the glances Connie gave Andy, you can tell that even then she was enamored by him, and perhaps even more based on what we know will occur next season.
When Connie found out about the treatment her sister received from her pos abusive boyfriend the only person she wanted to talk to him was Andy.
0:04 Josh was a great character, I wish they had done more with him.
Josh was probably shocked that he was asked to stay.
@@daviddaugherty5528 yep.
Franz is an amazing actor. Forgive me for stating the obvious
Some of the best acting ever. That show was so great.
😲😲😲 22 years went fast as can be
☹
As I think about it, this was probably my favorite scene in the whole show.
As far as partners go, no better than Andy Sipowicz!!!
"My Moms gave it to me." Apparently, he had more than one Mom.
All 12 seasons are now on Tubi. Love the show.
The few preceding scenes of Andy tracking down the necklace are great too.

Many male performers have notorious, ongoing affairs with the bottle and drugs, but those are soon forgotten. Her performances were very effective many times.
Back in the nineties used to be my fav show.
Now that what I called loyalty, ladies and gentlemen
That he sold the Cross for 30 $, that one hits hard.
good eye ! wanna really be blown away?, read zechariah 11:13 .
Gold was cheaper 25 years ago not like today everything is a ripoff
Such great guest actors on this show !
That "Is that Him?" line was funny af. lol
"Marvin, what do you make of all this?"
It's been a good run Captain Fancy
That's the incredible voice actor who voices Green Lantern, Samurai Jack and Hermes Conrad...
My favourite scene was Theo walking in on Connie in the bathroom, then Andy teasing Connie about Theo going to Hooters instead of school.
i've commented on the amazing acting but the writing is on another level
That n was a piece of work
Andy is the best
Sydney is the "boo this man" guy from Half Baked.
That's when God decided he had ENOUGH
I felt the strength in that line
Excellent ❤indeed, excellent acting
HTF Connie ended up being Andy's wife is a mystery of the century.
What, old dogs can't have a shot at living the dream? You forget, this is back when men were men and women acted like adults. Not what we have today.

It's a tv show.
@@asecretone no shit.
@@Inflator82 😄
We still root for Voight on Chicago pd
I like the way Diane says, "huge."
The master of blind, flinch-shooting.
Not a "big hair" cop show but I loved it.
OMG they collared Samurai Jack.
Kim Delaney is so beautiful
Such a great show. Great writing and acting.
It's true, Connie is a smokeshow...
Charlotte Ross still is
@@vintagetvandexciting she is awesome ❤❤❤
Tell me if I'm wrong?? The cross is still attached, if it was ripped off his neck the chain wouldn't not be attached.
Yep, a small blooper.
Actually, in the full episode, it was sold to a vendor who resold it. Andy got it from the guy who gave it to his child. Presumably, the clasp was fixed during this time.
@@staciewilliams1374 OK. You are good! I haven't seen an episode of NYPD Blue since it aired.
I thought the same thing a few weeks ago lol I was an extra on SVU a number of years ago, in one scene was getting arrested in another scene I was det. My brother said how do they get away with that, I said I'm an extra nobody looking at me lol
the real mistake was letting the killer handle the evidence
Best show ever.
Huge.
Andy?
YUGE
5:01 cue Superman theme.
I miss this series a lot
My list of Favorite cop shows (in no particular order) 1) Homicide: Life on the Streets; 2) NYPD Blue; 3) Justified; 4) The Shield; 5) Southland

Awesome show.... Ama do some binge viewing I think...
Drama for adults, what a concept.
Whats with Josh? Whats his job? All he does is sit on prisoners
Is that the black guy from MadTV in the opening scene?
3:48 oh they're gonna laugh at you alright... right on MADTV!
apparently, he lied in the box...he couldn't get enough laughs!!
Oh yeah they did that segment when the show became a massive hit and the center of media attention.
I guess Marvin didn't have an opinion..
Especially after he got shot in the face.
Wolly wolly woll
Andy is the man!
My”moms”. A different world.
1:40... Well, perhaps God was not busy s.where else. Perhaps it was God trying to get Danny on a different path so that [SPOILERS] he does not die in the line of duty a few seasons later
What exactly was Josh's job?
Phil LaMarr!
Why are they messin with The Green Lantern?
Sydney is in this spot because of Dobbs insanely disappointing report

Poor Marvin
😡I hate you can't watch this without PAYING FOR IT!!!!!
Why is that? It was on for free, but now that it's paid for itself many times over, we have to pay to watch it. Seems backwards.
No "Good job, Andy"? just "Do what you want"??
Fancy pretty much let Sipowicz take control to close the case.
Fancy is still angry that a black guy got the crap beat out of him in his squad, and that ultimately the end result of Andy fixing it is that Danny gets away with it. Fancy is torn between loyalty to his guys, in this case Danny, and doing the right thing when he sees someone get beat, especially a black guy, and mixed in with that is the knowledge that the guy who got beat was a murderer who probably deserved a bit of it.
