“Grew up watching Barney Miller, and try to catch it nightly on free tv. It holds up surprisingly well as a comedy and social commentary, as you’ve noticed. (With a few exceptions: “Rape” is unwatchable - as it most likely was for me on original airing.) A couple clarifications: Episode 33-Luger does admit to taking too many of his heart pills, explaining his “high” state.
Episode with Harris on mugging duty - you questioned whether Wojo ever pulled same duty. He did! With Wentworth, during a heatwave. And he was the one to get assaulted, making her feel terribly unattractive. He returned to station all mussed, his dress ripped.”
