    Though I liked Mark Harmon in his short stint on The West Wing. CJ deserved him.


  • Posts: 7,792 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I watched the West Wing, probably missed Harmon's cameo.... Sometime during season 3 I think some major character got 'poorly' - Couldn't watch it after that

    Jake Styles Jake and the Fatman - vague memories of this as a kid
    Pass
    Jim Rockford The Rockford Files - because Garner rules!
    Frank Drebin Police Squad - because Nielsen rules!
    Claudette Wyms The Shield - not seen it, but it's on the to watch list so expect she'll be liked
    Shane Vendrell The Shield - ditto
    Sarah Lund The Killing - Nordic noir please!
    Andy Sipowicz NYPD Blue - iconic (though Brodie was too, a tough choice here)
    Pass
    Michael Belker Hill Street Blues
    Steve Austin The Six Million Dollar Man - classic show ,and B99 really isn't that great, IMO

    Sorry yes have been doing the rounds once a day open for 24 hours, I will try and speed up now rounds are over (just hard to arrange on the mobile)

    If there is anyone that anyone feels deserves a second chance or was completely missed out on we can have an extra battle royal round if not we will start narrowing down with eliminations

    Bodie and Sipowicz tied I think in the last round Liz - 4 apiece I counted.

    Did you use your deciding vote to kick him to the kerb? :p

    EDIT Bodie was far harder and prettier than Sipowicz :pac: - I guess Andy was in a more recent show. The Professionals on every weekday on ITV4 as well as The Sweeney (also Minder, The Saint and Quincy)

    Jack Regan - The Sweeney?

    It would be nice seeing him up against The Professionals as both shows are British and from same era (70s)

    Jack was a true kick ass kinda guy as was the show itself

    :D He might be 'harder' but in a one on one, well Bodie and Doyle are definitely more 'skilled'; else Cowley(a man of high standards) wouldn't have used them for 4 years :pac:

    What about Carter - how would he fare against his gaffer? :D

    If it came to a matchup between Regan and Bodie, I'd be torn.. Not so much Doyle :P
