The ActorsTriviaThis series, produced by Michael Mann, to whom we owe two cops in Miami, was qualified by Time Magazine, during its broadcast, as a "most authentic police series for a long time". The intrigues are well put together, the realization is neat, in particular the pilot that we owe to Abel Ferrara, and the music, very effective. One of the reasons for the authenticity of the series is due to the fact that the main actor, Dennis Farina, had been a police officer for fifteen years in the city of Chicago, before becoming an actor. However, the series did not convince the public and it stopped after two seasons. The series has seen a good number of faces little known at the time, but which have since made their way. If the experts David Caruso and Gary Sinise participated in several episodes, others made it brightest appearances: from Julia Roberts to Dennis Haysbert, via Christian Slater, Kevin Spacey, Fred Savage and Lorraine Bracco.
