GIVE US `NYPD BLUE'

What will it take to get the local ABC affiliate to put ``NYPD Blue'' on the air?

Viewers are being denied the opportunity to watch an excellent program. I saw several episodes on FOX and I thoroughly enjoyed them as excellent portrayals of believable characters by extraordinary actors.

Numerous programs on prime-time network TV are offensive to me and/or done in poor taste, but I choose not to watch them; no one chooses for me.
