==Synopsis== Ritter plays San Francisco police Inspector Harry Hooperman. In the first episode, Hooperman inherits the rundown apartment building he lives in when his elderly landlady is killed in a robbery. He also inherits her temperamental pet [[Jack Russell terrier]] named Bijoux. Due to the demands of his job as a police officer, he hires Susan Smith (played by [[Debrah Farentino]]) to be the building manager, and the pair become romantically involved throughout the first season. Also starring on the show was Alix Elias as the cheerful and bubbly police dispatcher, Betty Bushkin; [[Barbara Bosson]] was Hooperman's divorced superior, Capt. Celeste "C.Z." Stern; Felton Perry as Harry's partner, Inspector Clarence McNeil; Clarence Felder as redneck inspector Boris "Bobo" Pritzger; [[Joseph Gian]] as Rick Silardi, a gay cop, and [[Sydney Walsh]] as officer Maureen "Mo" DeMott, his patrol partner who was intent on "saving" him from being gay by making unwanted passes. [[Dan Lauria]] played Celeste's former husband, Lou Stern. The theme music was composed by [[Mike Post]]. Guest stars in the series' 42-episode run included: [[Don Cheadle]], [[Kim Delaney]], [[Dennis Dugan]], [[Norman Fell]] (who worked with Ritter on ''[[The Stone Killer]]'' and ''[[Three's Company]]''), [[Miguel Ferrer]], [[Jack Gilford]], [[Mark Hamill]], [[Joanna Kerns]] (who did a guest spot on ''Three's Company''), [[Richard Kind]], [[Dan Lauria]], [[Jane Leeves]], [[Lorna Luft]], [[David Paymer]], [[Barbara Rush]], and [[Shannon Tweed]]. Except for a brief syndicated run on the [[FX Network]] in the mid 1990s, and the pilot rebroadcast on [[TV Land]] in 2003 following Ritter's death, the series has not been repeated.
