The original "ensemble drama," this is the story of an overworked, under-staffed police precinct in an anonymous inner city patterned after Chicago. We follow the lives of many characters, from the lowly beat and traffic cops to the captain of the precinct himself. This is the show that blazed the trail followed later by such notable ensemble dramas as "St. Elsewhere" and "L.A. Law."

Hill Street Blues vurderinger og anmeldelser
- Richard-2 d.I watched this series on TV when it originally aired and it quickly became one of those shows I tried to catch every single week. No streaming, no recording, just making sure I was in front of the TV when the episode started. And honestly, that alone says a lot about how good it was. The show had a great mix of style, atmosphere and storytelling that made it stand out from everything else on TV at the time. Sure, some parts show their age, but the core of the series still holds up. The world, the tone, the characters… it all still works. It’s a reminder of a time when TV had a different rhythm and when a good series could genuinely become part of your weekly routine.
- flavo4324. november 2025Hill Street Blues stands as a pinnacle of the police procedural genre—one of the first shows to portray not just crime, but the complex, messy personal lives of the officers behind the badge. It set the bar for every police drama that followed. The series wasn’t afraid to tackle controversial topics head-on, from racism and corruption to addiction, mental health, and systemic failures. What made it truly groundbreaking was its large, diverse ensemble cast, something far ahead of its time for network television. Each character felt layered, flawed, and genuinely human. I watched the series in syndication, since I was too young when it originally aired, and I made sure never to miss an episode. Its gritty realism, overlapping storylines, and documentary-style atmosphere created a world that felt authentic long before “gritty” became a TV buzzword. Hill Street Blues remains one of the most influential police dramas ever made, and it still holds up remarkably well.
