HSB out of the poll ones, but Lenny Briscoe is my fav.

 

[Obliviax]

Columbo was great. Good call.

I recall one episode where a guy had a heart attack while working out. Columbo hounded the crap out of a guy until he figured out he murdered the dead dude. When asked how he knew, Columbo saw that his bow ties on his shoes had the left side up and the right side down. This is backwards for a right handed shoe tier. it could only have been tied by someone facing in the opposite direction. So, he deduced the guy died, was dressed in workout cloths, and propped up to make it appear he died working out.

I think of that every time I tie my shoes.

"Angie" had her gams insured by Lloyds of London for $1-Million per!!

 

[PS4814]

I'm going with Fringe.

Same era as 24 and FBI was part of the show

 

[lionville]

Hawaii 5-0 with Jack Lord.

 

[Nitt1300]

NYPD Blue

 

[EdH85]

As a kid I loved The Rockford Files with James Garner.

 

[Aloha T]

Fresh in my mind....just watched 8 seasons....Psych...

 

[PinchotPenthouse]

HSB out of the poll ones, but Lenny Briscoe is my fav.

Agree on Briscoe. My favorite L&O episodes were with Jerry Orbach and Jesse L. Martin (Ed Green).

[NittPicker]

As a kid I loved The Rockford Files with James Garner.

The telephone messages in the intro were awesome!!!

 

[TheGLOV]

NO luv for Huggee-Bear of Starsky & Hutch??

 

[Columbus_Lion]

Some great choices. Hill St Blues was the most dramatic, but I Magnum was more entertaining (Helicopter and Ferarri - Come on).

I really enjoy "Bosch" on Amazon. Great cast.

 

[HazletonLion]

I liked Columbo and Miami Vice.

 

[BBG65]

I didn't see how to do write-ins, but 24 and Justified are easily at the top of my list. If you want to go back to the 80s, Miami Vice was really a fun show to watch.

 

[Woodpecker]

NO luv for Huggee-Bear of Starsky & Hutch??

He lost points when his kid chose to go to Michigan

 

[sluggo72]

is there a better intro anywhere!!!!!

 

[NITTANYJGK]

I'm going way back: "The Untouchables" starring Robert Stack.

The Wire

 

[OldTiredLion]

I used to watch Mannix pretty regularly back in the day. I noticed that MeTV now shows reruns of both Mannix and Cannon on late nights. Being a chronic insomniac, I recently watched a couple episodes and was reminded of how often and severely Mannix got the snot beat out of him, seemingly every other week. I'd bet if they'd have done one of those concussion tests that the NFL employs, he'd have been on the protocol all the time.

 

[Elwood Blues]

The Wire

Bingo - I put The Wire at the top of the list. Only one season, but I would put True Detective up there also (watched about 10 mins of season 2, concluded it was stupid...Rachel McAdams as a hardass cop? come on).

Where's Peter Gunn, now he was a real detective (in the show) somewhat dark and moody. Also no Mike Hammer, king of the babes, sorry, I don't know how to post pictures I'll leave it to one of the board's "techie" geniuses. As long as we are posting pictures how about Stephanie Kramer from Hunter.
