Barney Miller Det.

Wojo is forced to arrest an aging Indian who only wants to die in the park.

A police-themed sitcom airing on ABC from 1975–82, Barney Miller was considered quite realistic by actual cops, especially in comparison to police dramas at the time.

On Barney Miller, even canned laughter was used as a creative element in the producers' palette. When the show ended, the 12th was eliminated and closed. An elderly woman strenuously objects to the nude paintings on display in an art gallery. Reinhold Weege, who created Night Court and was a writer/producer for Barney Miller, died Dec. 1 of natural causes, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

creator (171 episodes, 1974-1982) Theodore J. Flicker. Barney Miller was an American comedy series that aired from 1975 to 1982.It took place almost entirely within the confines of the detectives’ squad room and Captain Barney Miller’s adjoining office of New York City‘s fictional 12th Precinct, located in Greenwich Village, where the detectives of the 12th were regularly bringing in several complaints and/or suspects.

Danny Arnold, the Emmy Award-winning writer-producer of television series such as “Barney Miller” and “Bewitched,” died of heart failure at his Los Angeles home on August 19, 1995. Television sitcom writer-director Ken Levine described Arnold as "brilliant, unpredictable (a nice term for bi-polar), demanding, and kind." The series hadn't been taped before a live studio audience since the third year, when the show's creators decided that they could more carefully orchestrate their curious blend of comedy and drama without the wild card of audience reaction--as this particular episode certainly bears out. The intriguing premise of an unscrupulous lawyer's attempts to sell an as-yet-unborn infant to a childless couple--only to have the young mother change her mind--yields an archetypal Barney Miller situation: A question of morality is confused by the poignancy of human desire. With Hal Linden, Max Gail, Ron Glass, Jack Soo. Directed by Alex March.
