Close, I am talking about the episode with the other guy.

Close, I am talking about the episode with the other guy.

You answered my question correctly the first time. If there was another NFL player who was the lead role on a cop show in the 80s, I am not aware of that.

Fred is the only NFL player I know of who played a leading role in a cop drama in the 80s.

Ok smart guy, who was the other NFL player who played a recurring role as a lead role in an 80s cop drama.

We ARE talking about title leads, not just back ups here. 

Fred Dyer was the lead in Hunter. I don't know of any other NFL player who went on to act in an 80s cop drama AS THE LEAD.

To be fair, you didn’t specify leads or title characters in your original question, so your criticism isn’t really fair.  And, as I said, this was basically an ensemble show, so there can’t actually be a lead.

Anyway, the answer is Ed Marinaro, who played Joe Coffey on ‘Hill Street Blues’.

You can untwist your knickers, now.

No wonder I din't get it. Hill Street Blues SUCKED!

But even if I liked it, you still missed the point that Fred was the title actor, not your guy.

You missed the prior posts.

You answered my questions correctly. "Fred Dryer" and "Hunter" were the answers I was looking for.

First of all, saying that Hill Street Blues 'sucked' tells me that your taste in television is as execrable as your taste in music. 

Second (at the risk of repeating myself), you didn't specify that questions were only to be about title characters or lead actors.

Third and lastly, you're an idiot.

Ford vs Chevy here.

Sorry. I found Hill Street Blues fuckig boring, as boring as you find ABBA. 

Diff is, I am willing to admit it is a matter of taste. But it still does not change that your guy you are now promoting WAS NEVER a first tear star. Saying that he appeared in 100 episode of a show does not make him the lead. Garret Morris was "Sporty James" the entire series.

I never said it made him the lead. I only brought up the 100 episodes to refute your idiotic, unfounded claim that I was talking about a cameo. And who says he has to be the lead? You never even brought that up until after I asked the question.
