Description

All 17 episodes from the first season of the groundbreaking and influential television police drama created by Steven Bochco. Set in an anonymous American city, the show follows the routine work of an under-staffed and overworked police precinct, led by Captain Frank Furillo (Daniel J. Travanti). In this series, tensions are high as the city prepares for a presidential visit; the beat cops are getting edgy as a TV reporter rides with them while he researches a story; and Furillo helps a racist detective clear his name for shooting an unarmed black man. The episodes are: 'Hill Street Station', 'Presidential Fever', 'Politics As Usual', 'Can World War III Be an Attitude?', 'Double Jeopardy', 'Film at Eleven', 'Choice Cut', 'Up in Arms', 'Your Kind, My Kind, Humankind', 'Gatorbait', 'Life, Death, Eternity', 'I Never Promised You a Rose, Marvin', 'Fecund Hand Rose', 'Rites of Spring: Part One', 'Rites of Spring: Part Two', 'Jungle Madness: Part One' and 'Jungle Madness: Part Two'.

    • Still "Being Careful Out There"
I miss "HSB" so much that I've invented a fantasy scenario, if the show were revived. I'd simply call it "The New Hill Street Blues". Without furher ado, here it is.: Megan Gallagher revives her role as Captain Tina Russo-Torgersen, of Hill Street Precinct, in Police Chief Frank Furillos's former position. Her husband, Assistant FIRE Chief Thor Torgersen, would be played by Lance Henriksen (Megan and Lance's tribute to their "Millennium" years)! Their teenage daughter, Hilda, would be played by Brittany Tiplady (another "Millennium" tribute). Andrew Renko would now be the Master Sergeant Watch Commander, doing the morning roll calls done by Sgt. Esterhaus. His roll-call schtick would be telling outrageous anecdotes, to illustrate whatever the number one patrol priority for the day would be. Sometimes he'd even dress in costume to drive home that point. He'd still cutup with . . . Bobby Hill would now be Lt. Robert Hill, head of dectectives, the same position occupied by Ramon Calletano. Lt. Lucille Bates would now be in charge of the EATers, once spearheaded by Howard Hunter, and Lt. Joseph Coffey would be in charge of the EATers of a rival precinct. They're secretly married! Howard Hunter would be CEO and Chairman of the Board of Howard's Hunters, a Corporate Threat Assesment Firm. He also does mercenary work in the Middle-East. Grace Gardner is now Grace Hunter! Yeah, a little international espinonage thrown in. He'd visit the ol' precinct house, clean out his still smoldering pipe in the trash, and start another fire, for old times' sake!! Chief Furillo's wife, Joyce, now captains her own private law firm. Working with her as a skip-tracer, repo-man, P.I., and bounty hunter, is Michael Belker. A sometimes helper to Mick, would be that poker-faced pickpocket played so masterfully by Nick Savage! Oh, Mick and Deborah Kaplan FINALLY tie the knot. Much later in the show, Joyce's new mystery law partner is retired Rear Admiral Harmon Rabb, USN (Why not have a "JAG" crossover?)! Fletcher Daniels is now the city's mayor, in the middle of a gubernatorial campaign. Fay still worries her ex-husband, they remain friends, but is now married to a broadcast executive played by Leonard Nimoy. Fay's and Frank's son, Frank Jr., is a HOTSHOT drop-dead handsome rookie cop at Hill Street Precinct. He's played by either Elijah Wood, or Hunter Schlesinger. Hery Goldblume is an Associate Chief, Frank's right-hand man, head of Frank's Joint Commanders Staff--JCS Commander Henry Goldblume. This outfit would be known on the show as "King Frank's Knights of the Round Table". One of those Commanders would be Cdr. Neil Washington. A few years before, Capt. John D. LaRue would have died a hero's death trying to stop a major bank robbery, with his partner, Neil at his side. There's been conjecture about this city's location. Could just as well be Cincinatti; Philadelphia; Columbus; Buffalo; Pittsburg, PA; or Baltimore. Boston; Portsmouth, NH; or Bangor, ME, would be stretches, because there wasn't references to old Amereican history in this show. ... show more

    • Hill Street Blues -- After all these years, still the greatest!
Like so many of you who have written reviews, I too have waited nearly 20 years for this release. I was 12 when I first got hooked on HSB and I have to admit that I was worried that it would not live up to all the praise I have heaped upon it over the years. Boy, was I surprised -- the show is even better than I remember! Of course, it helps that I now understand some of the jokes and innuendo that went over my head then. The characters, the writing, the direction and the actors are all superb. Dan Travanti is still so compelling as the moral center of the show -- Frank Furillo's humility and humanity are so real that you cannot help but be drawn into the never-ending saga of the Hill Street precinct. Of course, his scenes with Veronica Hamel are shockingly steamy given that this was filmed in the early '80s. It is hard to believe that some of this stuff got past censors -- but thank God for Bochco -- he must have given them some headaches. Joyce Davenport was my hero -- such a strong female character, who obviously had good looks but did not rely upon them for her success. The seven-year development and evolution of the love story between Furillo and Davenport makes the relationship one that continues to resound today. I could go on and on about all the characters that you will come to love if you watch this dvd -- Esterhaus, Hill and Renko (can you say those names separately?), LaRue and Washington, Bates and Coffey, Belker, and the others. The incredible writing and depth of these characters puts every show that is currently on television to shame. But they all owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to this ground-breaking show. When the West Wing won its fourth emmy and was being compared to Hill Street Blues, the producers of the West Wing didn't want anyone to make that comparison because the West Wing, as good as it is, is no Hill Street Blues. As for the DVD, I too wish that Fox had made more of an effort in the production -- more commentary, liner notes and extras would be great. I hope for more as they release future seasons. Previously unseen footage or interviews would be great. All in all -- this is 5 stars. If you somehow missed this in its first run, or were too young to watch -- give yourself a gift. You will watch the pilot and honestly, you will never be the same. I envy you the experience to watch this for the very first time. ... show more
