| | Barney Miller History | sjpc_01_package.xml |
 | | The main action was restricted to the detectives' office and the small connected office of Captain Barney Miller on the upper floor of an old police building. |
 | | In contrast to other police shows of its time, Barney Miller showed viewers the more mundane aspects of its detectives' work lives, including their bad habits, passions, and their likes and dislikes, all with one of the finest ensemble casts of working people in television. |
 | | Barney Miller's lasting legacy might be the shows that developed following its gritty working ensemble mold (Night Court, for example), or the effect it had on future police shows, such as Hill Street Blues, NYPD Blue, and Homicide. |
