William Shatner stars as the tough-talking, no-nonsense LA cop, T.J. Hooker, in this top-rating crime drama that premiered in 1982. An undercover officer whose partner's death spurs him to return to the beat in order to rid the streets of crime, Hooker is also assigned to train new recruits--which he does according to his own hard-as-nails philosophy of policing. Hooker is partnered with the very green young officer, Vince Romano (Adrian Zmed), a South Philly kid fresh from the Academy. Hooker reports to station Captain Sheridan (Richard Herd), with whom he sometimes clashes due to his exacting methods, but with whom he shares a deep mutual respect. (official distributor synopsis)
