Barney Miller Season 3

[@alabhaois]

My favorite "sitcom"-- it still holds up today. 👍👍👍

[@philosopher1a]

What a cast.. perfectly cast and excellent writing... wojo and dietrich so funny opposite ends of the intellect spectrum

[@user-it8mw4xq5s]

Wojo - “this doesn’t make me look to good either” always kills me😂

[@LordZontar]

My favourite Wojo/Dietrich scene was in the opening of another episode when they come into the squad room at the beginning of their shift, engaged in some deep conversation. Dietrich says, "You know, in a Hegelian dialectic, the conflict between two opposing forces always comes to a predetermined conclusion." Wojo answers: "Oh yeah? Well I still think the Rangers could have won last night if they'd scored that goal in the last minute." To which Dietrich replied "Not according to Hegel."

I remember that scene!!!

[@ImYourHuckleberry_29]

It was about the superbowl

[@GordiansKnotHere]

What a great show this was. The humor and chemistry between everyone bought out some really great comedy.

[@kendallrivers1119]

Love the chemistry between these guys. You could put any pair together whether its Dietrich and Wojo, Harris and Barney, Barney and Nick, Nick and Dietrich, Barney and Wojo, Wojo and Harris, Fish and Barney, Harris and Dietrich, Levitt and Barney etc. magic happens

[@franklinhall9640]

Barney Miller : I'll go with you myself. Det. Janice Wentworth : Please, Captain Miller? You're gonna have to let me go some time. Barney Miller : What do you say, Fish? Fish : I'd like to, Barney, but it would kill Bernice if she found out I died in the company of another woman. Elizabeth Miller : Phil, that is just terrible! Fish : Okay, Wentworth, come on. But I'M driving.

Remember Chano, too? Great character in the early seasons..

[@kendallrivers1119]

@@massvt3821 didn't really watch much of the first two seasons. The show didn't pop for me til season 3 but I love Gregeory Sierra as Julio on Sanford and Son.

[@madbrowniac7871]

James Gregory as Inspector Frank Luger had some terrific comic gems working seamlessly with the entire ensemble!😂B.W.

[@ImYourHuckleberry_29]

I always wanted to see more between Harris and Nick.

[@danradu9659]

Love Dietrich. Him and Leslie Neilson were the kings of deadpan.

[@tomswinburn1778]

The guy was fantastic as a comedic actor. As good as anyone I've ever seen. But I recently saw a clip of him doing stand-up and was hugely disappointed. Two very different skills. But on "Barney Miller" he and Fish ruled.

[@calebduprest6438]

Same with Abe Vigoda.

[@maxxxmodelz4061]

Wojo was a good actor! Everyone on this show acted so naturally. Excellent show.

[@jenniferbrooks87]

Very well said. I have been rewatching Barney Miller lately on Antenna TV and I'm amazed at how outstanding it really was💯

[@massvt3821]

Especially considering that in real life, Max Gail is nothing like Wojo...

[@patrickclements6507]

If you watch Dietrich closely, he usually cracks himself up with his punchlines. Mostly after he turns his back.

[@rosemaryhawkinsphotos]

Dietrich! Amazing.

[@mikehilbert9349]

The wide tie cracks me up

[@killmimes]

That freaking tie

Dietrich and my dad were like clones. except my dad worked at NASA instead of being a cop.

Up there with Barney Fife, Eddie Haskell and Al Bundy.

He was certainly very good. Not sure the best, but my list usually starts with Kramden and Norton.

So many of the greats have gone away without there being really anybody to replace them on the same level

Go away....

[@bloke_19xx33]

I know this show came out before 'CHEERS' but, IMO, Dietrich has some of the qualities that Woody had...you think he's going to 'zig', then pulls out a 'zag' at the last minute. Perfect deadpan delivery.

[@jessiejames7492]

who would think Woody Harrelson would have gone from that to such a good actor later. Well that was a sign of better things. great actor

[@kendallrivers1119]

@Bloke_19xx I would actually say if anything Dietrich was the precursor to Frasier Crane and Cliff Clavin. Those characters are like two sides of Dietrich lol

[@kendallrivers1119]

jessie james better things? Cheers was sophisticated, intelligent and brilliantly hilarious that filled the void of Barney Miller for the 80s as a top notch ensemble sitcom so Idk how you're saying it as if it was. some stepping stone for Woody. He was lucky to have ever been apart of it

[@jessiejames7492]

@@kendallrivers1119 luck? i dont think luck was it...he was marvellous in his simple minded character...hes also a very good actor

[@bloke_19xx33]

@@kendallrivers1119 Good point, Kendall. Never thought about Frasier and Cliff as the 'two sides of Dietrich'. Excellent analysis.

Agreed.

Good ol' Wojo. I really enjoy this show

Dietrich was the reason I watched the show

Funny stuff !

[@oldschool1993]

The writers for this show were genius.

[@biblebadcopycatofcuneiform8210]

Dear poster: Wojo and Dietrich are nouns.

[@briankleinschmidt3664]

I'm watching too many bird videos. Could you imagine Barney walks into the precinct and there's an ostrich in the holding cell? How about if Wojo is in the cell and the ostrich is roaming around the office?

[@johnkoenig326]

Those big, fat 70s ties...

[@cliffdiver5357]

Dietrich could have been Steven Wright's brother.

[@JACKnJESUS]

Writers vs actors...you need both to pull off this level of entertainment. Great writing with lousy acting...turn channel. Lousy writing with great actors...turn channel. Great writing and great actors...Barney Miller.

[@donxavier10]

Lord, that tie Wojo is wearing is so ridiculously terrible.

[@Drchainsaw77]

That brown tie with a gray suit always pissed me off.

[@dwightstewart7181]

In every show, there's at least one character you just can't stand. For me and this show, Wojo was that character. The others were entertaining and/or funny. Wojo was not.
