The Life & Times of Captain Barney Miller

We discuss the first three episodes of the second season of Barney Miller -- Doomsday, The Social Worker, and The Layoff. We are introduced to Detective Mike Lovatelli (Art Metrano) the Mr. Poopy Butthole of Barney Miller. We also get a special appearance by Steve Landesberg before he will return as Det. Sgt. Arthur Dietrich.

We wrap up the first season of Barney Miller with a look at the last three episodes: The Escape Artist, Hair, The Hero. In The Escape Artist we find Roscoe Lee Browne as a man who cannot be held behind bars. In Hair we see a character modeled after Serpico. And, in The Hero we get an incredible performance from Gregory Sierra. It's a great way to end the first season.

On the latest episode of The Life and Times of Captain Barney Miller we look at three episodes which deal with sexism, transphobia, and homophobia as we discuss Ms. Cop, Vigilante, and The Guest. It's a pretty solid trio of episodes.

On the third episode of The Life & Times of Captain Barney Miller we look at the episodes The Courtesans, Stakeout, and Bureaucrat. It's a mixed bag with Stakeout being the most star-studded as well as the most entertaining.
