Almost forgot about Chief Superintendent Christopher Foyle in the show "Foyle's War" set during WWII England.

I have to say he is my favorite TV Cop, Vic Mackey from The Shield would be a close 2nd.

+1 for Columbo.
Then there was Bruce Willis and Cybill Sheppard in Moonlighting.

Peter Sellers as inspector Clouseau. HILARIOUS

Another thumbs up for Longmire. And if you haven't seen them, check out Tom Selleck in the Jesse Stone movies. He plays an ex alcoholic police chief. He is terrific in those and I think there are 7 movies.

Good call on Moonlighting, that was quite an enjoyable show, plus Cybill Shepherd was easy on the eyes.
Yep... I have forgotten about this too.

I have noticed some of Jesse Stone movies listed on the channel guide of some of the smaller movie channels, and was thinking about checking them out just because of Tom Selleck. I will have to dvr them now based on your recommendation Thor!

CS Foyle from Foyle's War (when I could look away from his assistant....)
Honey West from long ago
Rockford, mostly because Jim Garner did such a good job.
Walter Mathau in The Laughing Policeman (Hey, I saw the movie on TV
)

A special mention would go to Chief/Sherrif Bill Gillespie from the TV series "Heat of the Night"...
And how about Dominic Da Vinci in the TV series "Da Vinci's Inquest"? (he was a cop before being coroner)

Translated to TV much better than Parker's other detectives: Spenser (both the Robert Urich and Joe Mantagna series were terrible) and Sunny Randall, who remains on the late Robert B Parker's pages.
Incidentally, Stone wasn't an ex-alcoholic. He was one who had quit drinking.
