DVD Reviews of Cagney & Lacey - Season 1(The Complete First Season)
DVD Review: Memories light the corner of my mind
Summary: 5 Stars
They simply do not make good dramas like this anymore. The vocabulary is excellent and the stories all can be told without intense/graphic violence. Too often instead of decent dialogue story lines include far too many profane words (writers lack language skills) and slang. (I do not want to be beat over the head with low class words and idioms thank you!) I am certain this will not appeal to hard liners that need heavy violence and crude language. DVD Review: Finally on DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
I was so happy to see that this old series is finally on DVD.
Two female, middle-aged police officers, one single, the other one married with kids. In their private life their problems are different, at work they solve the problems as a team. They don't always agree but they always manage to be "a team"
Two females in a leading role.
A police series with a lot of female sensitivity and intuition.
A real classic and a must for everybody who used to watch that series on tv 25 years ago.
DVD Review: Cagney & Lacey Season 1
Summary: 4 Stars
Cagney & Lacey is a very well acted & written series, which still holds today. Tyne Daly plays are very real, flawed cop & mother trying to do both jobs well. Sharon Gliss, plays a damaged woman, who is working out her life, as best she can, putting her job before anything else. The balance & friendship between Cagney & Lacey is acted
with believeability & compassion. I highly recommend this series.

Description of Cagney & Lacey - Season 1(The Complete First Season)
A ground-breaking show that re-defined its genre, Cagney and Lacey was something entirely new: a cop show featuring two strong and intelligent female detectives, with real lives and real problems--ordinary women doing extraordinary jobs. Now recognized as a true classic, this remarkable show tackles poignant social issues and explores the human side of hard-boiled detective work. Starring Tyne Daly and Sharon Gless as one of the most compelling detective duos of all time, this Emmy Award-winning drama is landmark television at its finest.Twenty-two early episodes of the breakthrough television series, Cagney & Lacey, are gathered in this Season 1 pack, though these do not include those with early Cagneys Loretta Swit and Meg Foster. Directed by Karen Arthur, written by a female team, and starring two filmic heroes of the feminist movement--Sharon Gless as Christine Cagney and Tyne Daly as Mary-Beth Lacey--the show pioneered on-screen presentation of independent, working women. With Cagney as the career-minded single woman, and Lacey as the mother/wife juggling job with home time, the two detectives serve as foil characters, the way other cop shows such as ChiPs, Moonlighting, or Charlie's Angels starred police with opposing opinions. But where other shows cast the foxiest people possible, Cagney & Lacey relied on character development instead of sex.
That is not to say that Gless and Daly aren't attractive, for indeed they are. Episodic narratives include Cagney & Lacey fighting female spousal abuse in "A Cry For Help"; date rape in "Date Rape"; racism in "Let Them Eat Pretzels," and many other issues targeted in the consciousness-raising feminist movement of the '70s and '80s. Many of the episodes, compared to the lightning fast-paced cop shows airing today, are slow and surprisingly non-humorous. But regardless of the show's occasional descent into tedium, Cagney & Lacey did much to promote the image of the self-made, multitasking woman. The two-part featurette, "Breaking the Laws of TV," starring heavyweights such as Gloria Steinem, critically places the show in TV history by contextualizing what was happening in the women's movement concurrent to the show's airing. Though the show may have its dull moments, it is fascinating to remember how television has changed over the decades. -Trinie Dalton
