Bruce Weitz won an Emmy as Sergeant Mick Belker in 1984. He also got two Golden Globe nominations. Not to be outdone, James Sikking was close friends with Bocho before capturing the role of Lieutenant Howard Hunter.
Barbara Bosson was married to Steven Bochco before being cast as Fay. In the show, however, her marriage was anything but happy. For her portrayal of the ex-wife of Captain Frank Furillo, Bosson earned five Emmy nominations. She never won. David Milch, one of the show’s first-time writers did.
