Hunter is an American police television drama created by
Frank Lupo, which ran on
NBC from 1984 to 1991. It starred
Fred Dryer as Sgt. Rick Hunter and
Stepfanie Kramer as Sgt. Dee Dee McCall. The titular character, Sgt. Rick Hunter, was a wily, physically imposing, often rule-breaking homicide detective with the
Los Angeles Police Department. The show's main characters, Hunter and McCall, resolved many of their cases by lethal force, but no more so than many other related television dramas.
