Description: |
The complete first and second seasons of the classic 80s cop show. William Shatner stars as Sgt. T.J. Hooker, a veteran cop who rejected a detective's badge to return to the streets and train young recruits. Also starring in the series are Adrian Zmed as Vince Romano, a young Vietnam veteran who finds a new home on the force as Hooker's partner and Richard Herd as Captain Dennis Sheridan a politically-minded officer with an eye to the chief's job. Hooker teaches the recruits at the Police Academy while working out of the nearby precinct. A tough-minded sergeant, he recently, returned to street duty by his own choice after his involvement in the fatal shooting of his partner. In the academy classrooms and on the fields, Hooker exposes the young recruits to the realities of police work and the pressures it brings on them and their families.
