Does X-Files count as a cop show? I would put that as best of the 90s.

The Shield is a hundred times better than NCIS.

Definitely not the best, but I loved watching Hunter as a kid in the 80's. That Fred Dryer was badass

70's were the golden age of cop shows. Hawaii 5-0, Adam 12, Starsky&Hutch, Kojak, The FBI, Streets of San Francisco, The Rookies, Police Woman, SWAT.
And that's not even counting the Private Eye shows like Mannix.

50's - Andy Griffith Show (I kid)
But what about CHIPS for the 70's?

00's - The Wire was not only the best cop show of the decade, but the best show, period..

70's - It's Hawaii Five-0 for me but I'm glad to se the love for Barney Miller. Even though a sitcom, a very realistic view of some detective work. I think it's a fabulous show and anyone who hasn't seen it, please do - especially from season 2 onward.

I was using "Cop Show" as a series based around the police no matter genre.

Have to consider Southland as well.
