Bochco was one of the most powerful TV producers during the 1980's and 1990's with hits such as Hill Street Blues, L.A. Law and N.Y.P.D. Blue. These three shows would garner him 10 Emmy Awards.
Before these successes, Bochco cut his teeth as a writer for shows like The Bold Ones: The New Doctors, Ironside, Delvecchio, McMillan & Wife and Columbo. Bochco was also responsible for shows like Richie Brockelman, Private Eye, Doogie Howser, M.D., Cop Rock, Murder One and most recently Murder in The First.
It was only last night that I watched the Columbo episode "Murder By The Book" which was written by Bochco and directed by Steven Spielberg. In all, Bochco wrote seven episodes of Columbo. Here is Bochco discussing his contribution to the greatest detective in TV history. R.I.P.
