I bought the 70's Cops Shows DVD, and love it. I especially love Starsky and Hutch, but the show I really love is Police Woman. I have always loved that show. I wish they would come out with at least the first season on dvd. Why not? They are starting to put all the other shows on dvd, so why not Police Woman. This was a groundbreaking show back in the day, and it still holds up just as good or not better then any of them. Angie Dickinson was, and still is one of the most hot actresses to ever hit the screen, movies or tv. I have read and heard that many people who bought the 70's Cop Show dvd really want more Police Woman. I cant blame them. Im still waiting on the box set....
After I graduated from college, had a job, I'd sit in my single-girl's apartment, watching this show about a single woman working. In 1977-1978, the network would show Policewoman, Kojak and another cop show after the late night news. Angie was right up there with the boys. That pretty much sums up her image. Pepper liked being one of the guys. The media focused on her sexy qualities, especially the first half of the first season, but Pepper really evolved into a great character. The topics were often ahead of their time. I remember one episode that began with Pepper and her boss watching that French dance act where the man slaps the woman around. Pepper didn't like it. Darned if a new neighbor in her apartment complex stops by, showing signs of being slapped around. Spousal abuse! This was before Farrah Fawcett starred in the TV movie, "The Burning Bed", the TV movie that brought this issue to the mainstream. In two other episodes, Pepper supported the wife or ex-wife of one of her coworkers diagnosed with cancer. The '70's were a decade when women ceased to hide their medical ailments, including disfiguring ones like breast cancer. These episodes showed that the Police Woman supported women as well as men. Back to Pepper's apartment, it was one a city employee could afford, unlike the spectacular, designer decorated living quarters one usually sees like in Will & Grace, Living Single, etc.
Okay,so I read two comments made about Angie Dickinson's classic 70's show Policewoman. The year this show came on in 1974,I was about nine years old.The year it when off the air I was 13 years old in 1978. I was fascinated by what I saw in the first two seasons of the show since Dickinson's character was always going undercover or in some of the episodes bounded and gagged,drugged or even at times kidnapped and it was always her male counterparts who were cops themselves,one of them played by Earl Holliman to save her but there were times that she mostly caught the bad guy(or in some instances they got away)who was running after them in high heels and those big ass shoes they had back then. The show premiered the same time as James Garner's Rockford Files and another cop show Police Story who were on the same network.This show had a lot going for it since the first two seasons of the show were compelling,but by the time the shows final two seasons came,it lost interest with its audience,and it was taken off the air by the executives at NBC-TV(which ran the series),and almost sent Angie Dickinson into a unknown abyss for more than 20 years after the original broadcast. The last time this show was seen was on New York's WOR-TV back in the 80's,and lost in space ever since.
While not the first show to depict a female police officer on tv, Police Woman was the first to show how she does it in an hour. The show, which ran for four seasons and has seen popularity in reruns and on dvd and streaming, stars Angie Dicksinson, once married to Burt Bacharach and whose daughter commited suicide at the age of 40, who is still alive and kicking at 88. The music is memorable and is one of the first TV shows to be distributed by Columbia Pictures Television, as Screen Gems in its previous form released the TV movie, which was a hit a year before. David Gerber produced the show, which did good in its first season but ratings fell due to changes in politics, speaking of which Gerald Ford loved this show but ABC cancelled it a year after Charlie's Angels became popular.

This started a movement in TV crime shows where females weren't just the passive victims of male dominated fantasy crimes. This lady hit back. And what a punch she packed. An action packed series that introduced us to some great supporting characters and kept mums as well as dads on the edge of their seat. Angie Dickinson never camped it up (as much as you couldn't in the 1970's) It was as gritty as the execs would allow. Despite the pilot episode being called Police Story - it was obvious from the outset who the star of the show was.
In its prime I had reached the grand old age of 10 - whereby this was the first adult TV series I was allowed to stay up and watch. Thanks Mom & Dad
