11 OCT 2024 · We're back to Barney Miller and we're joined by our dear friend Richard Hatem to dive into the first three episodes of Season 8: Paternity, Advancement, and The Car. They're three pretty solid episodes of our favorite cop show from the '70s/'80s.Â

13 SEP 2024 · We've paused between Barney Miller seasons 7 and 8 to take a look at the spin-off show, Fish. Abe Vigoda is back as Phil Fish and Florence Stanley as Bernice. Also along for the ride is a cavalcade of kids (some familiar to us, and some new) and Barry Gordon doing his best at a Woody Allen impression.
Chris and Mike cover the "highlights" and lowlights of this ill-conceived show.Â

12 JUL 2024 · The word we've used to describe Season 7 of Barney Miller is "uneven". These three episodes are great examples of that with the fairly strong episodes "The Doll" and "Lady and the Bomb" in which we get the usual strange people coming to the Old One Two (including the re-appearnce of Fish. "Riot", however, is a tin-eared "very special episode".

8 MAR 2024 · This three episode run of Barney Miller was the beginning, middle, and end of a new Detective in the old One-Two, Det. Sgt. Eric Dorsey (Paul Lieber). Sitting at Nick's desk, Dorsey was a quasi-Dietrich in his humor but couldn't ingratiate himself with his fellow detectives. We chart the introduction and fall of this ill-concieved character as we continue our trek through the uneven 7th season.

12 FEB 2024 · Welcome to season seven of Barney Miller where the guys of the old 1-2 are experimenting with new haircuts and toupees as we scream our way into the 1980s. We start off with a two-parter where the precinct shifts to dealing solely with homicides before abruptly shifting back. We follow that up with a story about a delegate to the 1976 democratic convention who's still hanging out in New York and indulging in all of his vices.
13 JAN 2024 · We're wrapping up the super sixth season of Barney Miller with three episodes that discuss topics as diverse as domestic terrorism, hypnosis, and intellectual property. We even discover a window in the 12th precinct that we never knew existed.
