S5E15- New York Undercover chat (with Jim McKeone)

Published: Feb. 3, 2022, midnight

Jim joins me again for the second Black History Month focused episode. We chat about Dick Wolf's return to the Miami Vice territory he first got his feet wet doing with New York Undercover, which starred Cool Running's Malik Yoba, a recurring villainous role by Ice-T and a neat R&B/Rap soundtrack. Is this still Yoba's best show role to date (which was years before his parts on Alphas, Revolution and Designated Survivor)? How many other actors from Oz, Homicide, The Sopranos and The Practice can we spot? Which characters from Law & Order made cameos on here? Why this was the first groundbreaking show to feature an African-American and Latino cop partner duo? All that and more details on the TV ONE cable channel special the show's abrupt cancellation! #newyorkundercover #show #malikyoba #edgy #gritty #cool #soundtrack #OST #rap #R&B #soul #music #awesome #badass #groundbreaking #icet #cancelled #cult #show #acclaimed #crime #action #mystery #genre #homicide #lawandorder #sopranos #oz #stelsewhere #fandom #excellent #podcast #review
