    Oh when life was simple!
    I love the way all the undercover cops sit around on Crockett's sailboat screaming their confidential plans all over the marina without a worry in the world. And how the ultra-white Polish-American Switek talks like he was raised in the Ghet-to, bae-beh. Must have been fun to write a cop show when all logic and reality could be suspended. Oh, what a time it was!
