Barney Miller

An attack on a department store's "canned music" system, a holdup in an adult bookstore, and an unsigned letter from a 12th precinct officer containing a surprising personal disclosure plunge the department into turmoil Producer: Danny Arnold

With the annual vacation scheduling conflict at hand, Barney and his men have a false alarm case to clear up, as well as a quarrel between brothers over a kidney transplant.

A drug pusher who's incensed at being arrested by a short cop, a photographer who lures women into a park for larcenous purposes, and a man who claims to be Jesus Christ enliven the 12th Precinct.

The 12th Precinct is enlivened by the problems of a Catholic friar who has mislaid one of his novitiates in the fleshpots of Manhattan.

A diplomatic incident is narrowly averted when a minor traffic accident exposes the slave status of a man named Nu, and Barney negotiates with the UN for Nu's freedom.

Barney has problems when Det. Harris finds a publisher for his book about the 12th Precinct, and Wojo gets a pet parrot.

Barney has problems when Det. Harris finds a publisher for his book about the 12th Precinct, and Wojo gets a pet parrot.

Comedy abounds at the 12th precinct, when Wojo brings in a flaky judge who uses his gavel on the head of a lawyer, and a woman charges that her sexy blonde neighbor is involved in a drug ring.

Two topless dancers from what turns out to be a government-owned strip joint and a man who claims he will burst into flames at any moment warm up the men of the 12th precinct in more ways than one.

A lady detective feels rejected when she fails to trap a lecherous dentist, and Wojo takes up an annoying art form as Barney's crew copes with New York's seamier side.

Outrageous events overtake the precinct when a women claims that her husband has been replaced by a robot, and a scientist tries to cover up the theft of mutant cultures that might cause an epidemic.

While Barney faces eviction, his men arrest a berserk census taker and some neighborhood busybodies who have set up their own legal system.

Barney's men have their hands full with a self-proclaimed time traveler from the 21st century and a divorced father who tries to kidnap his own son.

On mandatory "uniform day," Barney and a dapper Harris have a confrontation over Harris' refusal to wear full police garb, and Dietrich pursues an old case to its bitter end.

Sgt. Harris disappears while working undercover as a skid row bum, and Frank Luger is demoted and assigned to work under Barney.

While everyone searches frantically for Harris, who disappeared while on an undercover mission, Wojo and Dietrich compete for the attentions of a young woman with a bizarre proposition.

Det. Dietrich defies Capt. Miller by attending an anti-nuclear power demonstration and winds up on the wrong side of the law when a disturbance breaks out; and a lottery winner is arrested for throwing his money into the streets because he's tired of being besieged for loans.

Capt. Barney Miller reluctantly has Det. Dietrich booked for taking part in an anti-nuclear power demonstration, and a pro-nuke scientist harasses his fellow prisoners by splashing them with "atomic water" in the hilarious conclusion of a two-part episode.

Demoted Inspector Luger seems suicidal to Wojo, and Barney has his hands full tracking down some heavy artillery stolen from an illegal collection.

Two armed hoodlums invade the squad room, but Barney has little time for them because a bomb is about to go off in a building across the street.

While a hypnotist tries to extract important clues from Wojo's foggy memory, an inventor tries to steal his own blueprints.

Capt. Barney Miller is turned down for a promotion and, while he broods about it, his men bring in a burglar who got lost in the fog, a combative blues musician and a socially concerned nut.
