Angie Dickinson, "Police Woman"
So groundbreaking was Angie Dickinson as Sgt. Pepper Anderson, a hot, sharp cop of the female persuasion, that men of a certain age are still drooling at the memory. Even a crooked FBI agent on a recent "Life on Mars" drifted into a reverie about
This new ABC show, sort of "Murder, He Wrote" with no twee accoutrements, features a writer who solves crimes but needs to be watched over by a real cop. And lucky for Castle (Nathan Fillion), his assigned homicide detective is Kate Beckett (Stana Katic)
Johnny Depp, officer of the law? In high school, no less? That was the hook for the crazy-popular show that launched Depp's career as an actor, and as a sex symbol, in 1987. Taking the "Mod Squad" conceit one step further, Depp was Officer Tom Hanson
