Cagney & Lacey
Two women cops working twice as hard for half the glory, twice the excitement!
Created by Barbara Avedon, Barbara Corday
On CBS
A buddy-cop procedural built on the chemistry and complementary personalities of two female detectives navigating crime and workplace dynamics in 1980s New York.
Mary Beth Lacey and Chris Cagney are teamed up as NYPD police detectives. Their opposing personalities (one is tough and the other sensitive) mesh to make this one of the great crime-fighting duos of all time.
