Hill Street Blues: Season 6

Except for the episode involving the breakdown of Lt. Hunter 'underling' Ballentine "My name is Jack!" (oh brother, he ends up meow-growling like a cat -- not kidding) HILL STREET'S sixth Season is as good as tv gets.The flashback scenes of Joyce Davenport (Hamel) and "Pizza Man" Furillo (Travanti) are nothing short of priceless.Season six is famous for a couple of startling shootings.Dennis Franz is back as Bad Sal, er, I mean appearing for the 'first time' as Norman "Bunts" for Season 6.An episode with young cop Mykel T. Williamson (from Forrest Gump) is worth pointing out: A gun is planted on a "clean shoot"; and Belker is learning how to cook "Meth" as part of his undercover work on same day he's supposed to marry Robin (Lisa Sutton). Great episode.Just wanna' give a shout out to two underrated recurring characters on The Hill played by Lisa Sutton and George Wyner. "Robin" (Sutton) is Belker's main squeeze and Wyner the likeable lawyer "Irwin" who offered Joyce Davenport the promotion. They were around for pretty much the entire show and were effectively good without getting much credit.HILL STREET SEASON 6 another 5 star job well done.

Hill Street Blues has always been one of my favorite shows but it's been difficult to get DVDs of the last two seasons. I had the first two years but then finally found seasons 6 and 7 on Amazon. These two are especially good as they mark the "Norm Buntz years" - with new cast addition Dennis Frantz. Each episode in Season 6 I've found taut and superbly done, with a plot that keeps the viewer glued to his seat. Seeing this series again, of course, enticed me to buy Season 7 as well. Money well spent!

Watching the entire 7 seasons and it is an interesting progression and reflection of the multiple problems happening then and related to now. All of the characters are memorable and each season they seem to bring the character more alive and well rounded. Interesting that the signature slogal "Let's be Careful out there" was only the first 3 seasons until the actor sadly passed away in real life.

The DVD itself and the packaging are both excellent,Season six is my favorite as it has some excellent episodes, including the sad demise of Officer Coffey.

There are no superlatives that haven't been used for this series. All at once gritty, witty, imaginative and heartbreaking, Hill Street Blues is a classic!

For all fans of the series and Bochco.

So glad to be able to watch it again. Husband loves it, too.
