How Many Police Comedies Are There? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

On the cover for the Barney Miller DVD it says "One of the Funniest Police Shows Ever". That got me thinking, how many police comedies are there. I can name two:

-Barney Miller (1975-1982)
-Car 54, Where Are You? (1961-1963)

Can anyone name some more?

Yep, that's what I was going to say although I've never really seen it.I'm hoping it's picked up by Comedy Central like Action was.

The Job was a great sitcom that got no respect from ABC.
