The NYPD Blue TV show was a 60 minute police drama series that explored the lives of New York's (usually) finest both on the job and in their personal lives. It got a lot of criticism in the beginning by being one of the first series in prime time to air brief nudity and use realistic language. It portrayed cops as they are, normal ... imperfect ... human beings. There were plenty of shootouts, drug busts, car chases and other typical police themes but also more complicated subjects. If a suspect got out of a rape or murder charge on a technicality is it ok to plant drugs in his home to get him off the street? If you know your partner, an otherwise great cop, is taking favors from hookers in return for not arresting them, what should you do? These and other similar questions made this a landmark TV show.
