 Sgt. T.J. Hooker is a veteran policeman with a strong hatred of the criminal element. He has declined numerous promotions because of a strong need to be out on the "streets" battling crime, and not wasting his skills and passion pushing pencils behind a desk. He cruises the city in a squad car with his headstrong rookie partner Vince Romano, and when not cruising his beat, can be found teaching new recruits at the police academy. Sexy Stacy Sheridan is another rookie cop and the daughter of Hooker s commanding officer. Jim Corrigan is another veteran officer and Stacy s partner.
