Rachel Miller returns!  Is your pulse racing yet?  Mike and Chris discuss this bizarre episode where Wojo wants to date Barney's daughter. They also dive into the two-parter "Contempt" where Barney goes to the slam due to his principles.

We continue to plod through the seventh season of Barney Miller with another uneven group of episodes. We meet a grammar Nazi in "The Psychic" and a real Nazi in "The Librarian".  In-between we find out that Carl Levitt can speak American Sign Language in the sublime episode "Stormy Weather" where a deaf prostitute is under arrest.

Special guest Richard Hatem returns to discuss four episodes of Barney Miller!  Resignation in which Deitrich tries to resign only to manage to insult all of his co-workers.  Field Associate in which we learn that there's a snitch in the precinct.  And the two-parter, Movie, wherein Harris becomes an auteur by creating a heady adult film.

This three episode run of Barney Miller was the beginning, middle, and end of a new Detective in the old One-Two, Det. Sgt. Eric Dorsey (Paul Lieber). Sitting at Nick's desk, Dorsey was a quasi-Dietrich in his humor but couldn't ingratiate himself with his fellow detectives. We chart the introduction and fall of this ill-concieved character as we continue our trek through the uneven 7th season.

Welcome to season seven of Barney Miller where the guys of the old 1-2 are experimenting with new haircuts and toupees as we scream our way into the 1980s. We start off with a two-parter where the precinct shifts to dealing solely with homicides before abruptly shifting back. We follow that up with a story about a delegate to the 1976 democratic convention who's still hanging out in New York and indulging in all of his vices.

We're wrapping up the super sixth season of Barney Miller with three episodes that discuss topics as diverse as domestic terrorism, hypnosis, and intellectual property. We even discover a window in the 12th precinct that we never knew existed.

On this ultra-woke episode of The Life & Times of Barney Miller we discuss "Guns" wherein Wojo uses a bazooka against Barney, "Uniform Days" where Harris doesn't want to don the old blue threads, and the two-parter "Deitrich's Arrest." We're joined by renown screenwriter Richard Hatem to talk about a quartet of solid episodes from season 6.

Mike and Chris discuss the two-part episode "Vanished" in which Harris investigates the disappearance of several homeless men, forcing him to go undercover. In "The Child Stealers" we see the return of Marty and Mr. Driscoll while discussing parental rights for queer people.

We continue looking at the 6th Season of Barney Miller with three solid episodes wherein we hear about the state of DNA research in 1979, get a visit from an undercover detective, and reunite with a lot of familiar faces.

We continue our look at the solid Season 6 of Barney Miller with three episodes that include Wojo buying a parrot with a short shelf life, Don Calfa as a nearly-catatonic criminal, and the disappearance of Nick's old desk.
