Yes, I saw HSB exclusively on the DVD sets. I don't own them, but IIRC they were the original sets that came out in the 200X's/20XX's.

Agree 100% . Older shows like HSB, St. Elsewhere (never seen this, but want to at some point), etc. are not typically easy to find on many streaming platforms. And, even if you can find them - they won't necessarily always be available. I've been streaming for 8 years now, and, yes - it's...

Exactly! And, I think that's why he was coming down so hard on J.D. at times. I.e., Frank had gotten his #$#% together re: his drinking, for the most part (though I do remember 1-2 temporary relapses during the course of the series) so he knew the addiction could be controlled/overcome...

-Well, at the beginning of the series, I thought Frank & Fay were still married on paper - though they were going through a divorce, I didn't think the paperwork was finalized yet. He was already dating Joyce at that point (their relationship started off-screen prior to S01, thought there was a...

Some other comments about HSB: -There is a very funny running "joke" (through S04) involving the vicious Belker & a non-violent thief that he keeps bringing in for booking. This particular thief always gives a different name when asked (obviously all are fake), despite the fact that he knows...

I never saw Hill Street Blues (1981-1987) when it was originally on, but did make a point of watching the entire series (on DVD) in Summer/Fall 2018. This is an excellent, solid crime drama, and reminds me of a documentary. I actually find these earlier seasons more reminiscent of a late...
