Ten Coolest TV Cops

Wednesday March 18, 2009 1:11 PM

Studies have shown that 37% of all TV is cop related. In honor of the Fuzz and the Narcs, the Man and the Po-Po, the Pigs and the 5-o…we give you a list of the Ten Coolest TV Cops

10. Ice T as Det. Finn Tutuola on Law & Order SVU
Are you kidding me? Ice T is one of the coolest people on Earth no matter what he does. We would be honored to get busted by an undercover Ice T.

We were going to embed a video of some of his highlights on SVU but instead went with a picture of Ice T and his wife Coco. We believe that she is an alien sex robot from the Planet Juggs and somehow he convinced her that he is our leader…

9. David Duchovny as Special Agent Fox Mulder on the X Files
Almost didn’t make the list because he’s TECHNICALLY a FED and not a COP exactly, BUT we watched a few episodes of Californication and his overall cool factor put him over the top.

8. Cedric Yarbrough as Deputy Jones on RENO 911
“…and the installation is freeeeeeee-eeee-eeee!”

7. Sarah Shahi as Det. Dani Reese on Life
Det. Dani Reese is a recovering coke addict who often goes off the wagon, drunkenly having dirty sex with strangers…that is the definition of a cool cop. Her partner on Life, Charlie Crews almost made the list instead, BUT he never took pictures like this…

6. Dominic West as Det. Jimmy McNulty on The Wire
The Drunken Master of Baltimore Police. He was totally worthless for 85% of the time, the other 15% he was a modern-day Sherlock Holmes.

5. Telly Savalas as Lt. Theo Kojak on Kojak
Who loves you baby? We all do Kojak, we all do… I put a whole episode here, in case you are under 35 and have no idea who Kojak is.

4. Denis Leary as Det. Mike McNeil on The Job
Pretty much the exact same character that he plays on Rescue Me, except NOT a firefighter.

3. Michael Chiklis as Det Vic Mackey on the Shield
He ain’t the Commish anymore! In fact Vic Mackey killed the Commish and ate his body. One of the toughest, meanest bastards of a cop ever to be on television. They made saying “sh1t” an artform on FX…

2. Hank Azaria as Chief Wiggum on The Simpsons
America’s favorite heavily armed small town cop. There’s no high pressure situation that he can’t handle. And by “handle” I mean “eat donuts during.”

1. Richard Belzer IS Det. John Munch from Homicide: Life on the Street and Law & Order SVU
The one true Munch! A character so cool, he survived his show getting canceled!

LIFETIME COOLNESS APPRECIATION AWARD
