It was really really funny but i can't tell whether that was intentional or not, was filled with stereotypes and stuff. there was a hot head hispanic cop, an experienced black cop with street credit, a nerdy…

in one episode there were these Gangsta's having a party and the black cop called to them and then they had a drive by shooting on some old mans house!please help me i just can't remember its name!

Here is my guess, though probably wrong, was The Commish? Short stocky cop, jewish wife, based in New York, I think.

I was thinking 'The Job'. I'm pretty sure it had Black Cop / Hispanic Cop / Nerdy cop etc tho it also had 'Denis Leary Cop' so that probably eliminates it straight away as I'm sure you'd have remembered him in it. Plus it was set in NY so all the evidence seems to be to the contrary. It was a comedy tho, no L/T.

Eh ... not much help there really
