Tyne Daly as Detective Mary Beth Lacey and Sharon Gless as Detective Christine Cagney presented television audiences with a pair of strong women whose personal relationships were as fascinating as their line of work.

While Cagney was a single woman, Lacey was a devoted wife and mother, and so the issues explored ranged from date rape to a runaway son.

Supporting cast members included Al Waxman as Lt. Bert Samuels and John Karlen as Harvey Lacey, such a memorable actor that, just this year, he still got a word of thanks from former costar Daly as she accepted her Emmy as best supporting actress in the series "Judging Amy." • Tony La Torre as Harvey Lacey Jr. • Troy Slaten as Michael Lacey
