Trivia:
Original plans were for this series to be shot with hand held 16mm cameras only and in black and white. moreGoofs:
Miscellaneous: For being a show that was obviously set in an unnamed northern cold-weather city like Pittsburgh or Chicago, the cops were never shown outdoors patrolling the beat in winter weather like snow and ice. moreQuotes:
Radio Dispatcher: [Radio call in opening credits of every episode] Dispatch, we have a 9-11, armed robbery in progress - see Surplus Store - corner of People's Drive and 124th street moreMovie Connections:

An American cop show - who'd have thought an American cop show of all things could exemplify the best of television. From the land that gave us the pits of tv (have you seen Donahue?) there comes, once in a while, a beacon of greatness. The last episode of M*A*S*H, and the whole of HSB make the invention of television worthwhile.
