Find Here the Best Cop TV Shows

All suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a Court of Law.

The glory of cop TV shows is a tremendous asset when it comes to that all important life discussion involving crime and punishment. Despite the fact that Themis (”law of nature”) is outwardly blind, it is still the basis of all principles in the judicial authority keeping vigilant watch over order and justice.

Leave it up to you whether to hate or respect those people, who are in the name of the law protect common guys from violence, murders, burglars, etc. Just like soldiers and doctors, cops have to come to the aid of the helpless. Right, they’re usually too late.

Do you remember the “COPS” TV show? When it was firstly aired? It was more than 20 years ago. Young generation doesn’t obviously remember the 80’s including this cop TV show. However, I can bet everybody have seen “Terminator” or at least having heard much about it.

At that time people were dissatisfied with a public order and breaches of peace. Disorders had to be put into order. Fortunately, a right decision has been taken. City dwellers and suburbanites were shown the work of police in reality show called COPS. It was the first real life project.

A four-time Emmy nominee, COPS is a gritty and unfiltered look at the seemier parts of our society as seen through the eyes of the men and women who struggle to keep the peace.” Watch and download COPS‘ episodes and seasons on the web.

Unlike COPS there were many cops TV shows and other movies on TV. I singled out the top 5 cop TV shows:

• Miami Vice. A classical police drama that was know as “MTV cops” due to the use of popular music and songs. I hope you’ve got a notion about what this TV series is? The plot is much better than the sequel to it. The cast is perfect. I kept in my mind such names as James “Sonny” Crockett (Don Johnson) and Martin Castillo (Edward James Olmos known the fans for “Battlestar Galactica“)

• Columbo (1971-2003). Columbo is an American crime fiction TV series, starring Peter Falk as Lieutenant Columbo, a homicide detective with the Los Angeles Police Department. You’ll never forget a distinctive play of Peter Faulk, his wear out rain coat, a pretty nice dog, and a manner to inquire into the matter carrying it through. To some extent he reminds me of Hercule Poirot.
  

• Starsky and Hutch (1975-1979). Police legends Tough Starsky and educated Hutch are plainclothes cops taking on dope dealers, muggers and other thugs, aided by their red 1974 Torino and informant Huggy Bear. Both bachelors’ private lives play as interweaving threads in the drama. The sequel to this movie is just like comedy thriller (Snoop Dog rules here). Look also here.
  

• Law & Order (1990-2008). The show follows a crime, ususally adapted from current headlines, from two separate vantage points. The first half of the show concentrates on the investigation of the crime by the police, the second half follows the prosecution of the crime in court. “In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate, yet equally important, groups: the police, who investigate crime, and the district attorneys who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories.”
  

• Crime Story (1986-1988). Crime Story was a valiant attempt by Miami Vice producer Michael Mann to present a compelling police drama series in a serialized fashion. Chicago, 1963. As head of the police department’s Major Crime Unit, Lieutenant Michael Torello must deal with the city’s most dangerous criminals. And possibly the most dangerous of all is Ray Luca, a young ambitious street hood who’s out to gain wealth and power by whatever means - including theft, threats, extortion and murder.
