[acrttdriver]

RIP Detective Dietrich.

[mcbrownsugar]

This was one of the funniest shows in tv history.

[Teflon65]

I like the episode where Dietrich stops someone from squashing a cockroach, and then goes into a long speech about how the cockroach will be around, long after humans have destroyed themselves. Then, he looks down, stomps his foot, and says, "Got that sucker!" (Cue opening theme.)

[mojo4404]

TVland did a top 100 alltime television characters - anyone know if Deitrich made the list?

[bigkellyr]

I always thought it was too bad that they couldn't keep a woman detective on the show. Batista and Wentworth were great characters and there were a couple of others. I thought it was really great in the final episode that Barney remembered Wentworth.

[parkman35]

The old Inspectah...

[sportakook]

What a great clip. Steve Landesberg is amazing. Dietrich has and always will be one of my favorite sitcom characters ever.

[StanleyKu]

Greatest sitcom ever!

[Evilution316]

lmmfao Classic Barney Miller Stick lol still funny as hell

[nothing5643]

There was one episode where internal affairs came in with a polygraph.

Dietrich said "I was born a long long time ago in a galaxy far far away"

He flat lined it

[pauloman39]

Barney Miller...one of the all time great shows...lets have them all on dvd..great clip

and a look a James Gregory...what a riot!!

Inspector Luger what a wonderful character.

[ExplorerDS6789]

Luger is definitely a throw-back to the classic detective image of the 1940s.

[daryl060761]

Oh and by the way Barney Miller was an excellent show to watch slightly tuned-up, if you get my drift. A fact that was eventually acknowledged in the Moosh, Moosh, Moosh, hash brownies episode! Ah, the Seventies!

[daryl060761]

Dietrich was the bomb! Every line out of that guy's mouth was hilarious. And his delivery was so dead-pan. But you always new Dietrich had the facts, and was one step ahead of everybody. A great, one-of-a-kind character, from one of the all time great sit-coms!

[StanleyKu]

Dietrich was awesome and he still managed to rub everyone the wrong way with his smug superiority. lol

[lewisner]

@StanleyKu I loved his smug superiority.

[AVDPA]

Does anyone have a UK release date for season 2?

[teenonator]

Man, I'm so glad season 2 down at the ol' 1-2 is coming out

[drcoxcentral]

I think Dietrich was the Spock of that show.

[BozsiD]

Well, it's lovely to hear someone else expressing my thoughts exactly! Everyone on the show was a gas, but Dietrich really made it ESSENTIAL viewing all those years ago. WHEN are they going to give us the DVDs of all the series, instead of eking them out one at a time? Series 2 of course now out, but when will we get the rest?

[Lappy486]

LOL! I can't wait for season 2 to be released!

[ExplorerDS6789]

And let's hope we don't have to wait another four years for season 3.
