There are eight million stories in the Naked City....
Gritty and realistic, Naked City is one of television's best police dramas. Filmed on the streets of New York City, this ever-popular series puts a human face on crime, going beyond a simplistic portrayal of good vs. evil to delve into the complex personal dramas of the people involved. Filled with swift-moving action, the stories are often violent and tragic, but also contain their share of humor, absurdity and even fairy tale romance. Paul Burke stars as Detective Adam Flint, the young, handsome detective who manages to hold on to his ideals, and Horace McMahon is his crusty old boss, Lt. Mike Parker. Because of the critically acclaimed series' outstanding reputation, the series attracted many top film and television actors for its guest-starring roles.
