About
"The buddy-cop show that made women the buddies"
Two New York City detectives, one a single career woman, the other a working wife and mother, share cases and precinct politics in this pioneering police procedural. Each episode mixes street-level crime-solving with the two leads' personal lives, marriages, health scares, and battles for respect in a male-dominated squad room. The pace is steady and dialogue-driven rather than flashy, closer to a character drama than an action show. What carries it is the partnership itself: two believable, flawed women whose friendship feels lived-in rather than written, decades before that became a common television formula.
the groundbreaking chemistry between two fully realized female detectives rarely seen on 80s TV.
you want slick pacing or modern production values over character-driven, talky procedural storytelling.
Written by our AI editor to help you decide, spoiler-free by design.
