When I was a little kid it was "The Chicago Show" based entirely on an Old Style Beer sign in the opening credits. What it really should be praised (or shunned for) is introducing the police procedural drama. Only, when you do it first, it's not a really bad thing. And not only did they do it first, they did it well.
