Trivia
Detective Munch is mentioned in the BBC's crime drama Luther (episode 5). Luther instructs a subordinate to telephone Special Victims Unit in New York, specifically Detective Munch to garner information about the villain in the episode. See more »Goofs
In a number of episodes, in-vehicle shots with a "back seat" perspective often show that the vehicle being filmed in is in fact a Chrysler-produced sedan. Note the older star-in-pentagon emblem on the steering wheel instead of the Chevy Cavaliers that the detectives drive. This is likely due to the lower headroom in the Cavalier, making it difficult to film that perspective. See more »Contribute to This Page

I have never been a big fan of police serials, but this is my all time favourite. I have nothing to add to the earlier comments, other than that in a time with complicated racial conflicts, poverty induced crime and the problems stemming from social inequality, this show tried to comment on the real problems facing the modern society.
And it was exciting too.
