Hill Street Blues is so far ahead of every other one, it should be disqualified from the competition.

The Wire season 1 is good.

Not sure if it had a theme song, but Angie Dickinson in Police Women was a dish.

I always picture her as the cop in "Sir Psycho Sexy."

I'm amazed how anyone of you young men ignore Peter Gunn which is still a Rock Anthem some 60 years later after Henry Mancini wrote it.

Actually, my favorite tv show from when I was five, The Streets of San Francisco, had a kick-ass opening. Gritty and funky.

I'm ignoring it because Peter Gunn isn't a cop show.

Could take this thread two ways. If about a cop, Crockett's Theme. If a police show or movie:

1) SWAT
2) Hawaii 5-0 (original)
3) Axel F
4) Peter Gunn

I had a 45 of the S.W.A.T. theme when I was a kid. Tops the list for me.

Yeah, me too. When I tried to find the song recently I had a very hard time finding the original Rhythm Heritage version.
