1st episode. Depp gets assigned to the same school of the kid he just questioned about a break-in at his house. Depp brings up the obvious point to his captain "what happens when the kid ID's me and blow my cover?"
captain's response: "what? naaah."
wow. terrific argument, cap. i'm sold.
It gets better. Sorry to sound like your mother when your first boyfriend/girlfriend breaks up with you but it does.
I had an issue with the original captain. I found him to be dirty, greasy and inattentive to the job at hand. he doesn't last long.
Reading the paper can really be depressing. Mr. Dithers fired Dagwood again.
I LIKED Jenko, it was Fuller I couldn't stand, too rigid, too 'professional', liked the way Jenko worked the Chapel better.
shareI liked Jenko also. Was it planned that he only be there for a few episodes?
Also, I agree about Fuller. I couldn't stand him either. Way to full of himself right from the beginning also.
The actor that played Jenko wasnt used to television since he was a film actor so he ended up quitting because it was too demanding.
shareI probably would've liked Jenko if they didn't write him so badly. I understand that he was supposed to be some burnout relic from the 60s, but it was unnecessary practically every time he had dialogue to make reference to Hendrix or use dated 1960s slang. He came off cartoonish in that fashion. It got so annoying after awhile too.
When there's no more room in Hollywood, remakes shall walk the Earth.share
thank you! that and the cleanliness. god, he was scuzzy and gross! less oil in the hair and more shampoo!
Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.
I couldn't stand Fuller. He was too rigid, no sense of humor, and full of himself. At least Jenko could have fun and ease the tensions at times.
Yes, Fuller, they all knew *you* were in charge, and *that was your office now*. Ugh!
And did he really think he was above the law?
The episode when he got nailed for drunk driving - did he really think the law didn't or shouldn't apply to him? Above the limit is above the limit, no matter who you are.

I agree with you but in reality, a lot of Police officers/PO's family members really DO believe they are above the law.
so it is good that the show did what they did. made fuller get in trouble for that. it gives some reality to the show.
Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more. Edmund Blackadder.
IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT YOU THINK...
sorry but the detroit lean predates 1995 ,or as you put it driving in the middle of the car.dudes did that in the 70s and 80s.
spectre can
suck it.
but this was Bronxville ny.
and she was a girl. a strait girl at that.
Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.
But for a cop and for the superior of the chapel, Fuller could also be damn naive at times, the time he went on that talk show when Ioki was being investigated for knocking a girl up, he really didn't think that was going to come out? His 'junior' officers even mentioned the woman was a bit of a shark before he went on TV, he never saw it coming?
shareI don't really remember that episode, I think I only saw it once. What was the season so I can look it up and watch again?
Overall, I just never liked Fuller.
Season 2, and I never liked him either, I resented from day 1 that he replaced Jenko, Jenko was cool, he was fun, he was 'unprofessional' and still knew what he was doing.
shareI totally agree with you. Jenko was the type of boss I'd like to have. He knew the job, did the job, but still knew how to have fun and be a human being. (I actually did work for a guy with that sort of personality, briefly. It was a "temp" job. I wish I had been able to stay permanently, or that he had actually remembered to call me back in.)
I also hated the send-off they gave him. Why not say he was killed in the line of duty? Or since the Catholic school was his last episode, say he never made it out of the building after he went in for Ioki and Hanson?
