Best 80s Movie Cop

We've managed, or at least have tried to describe "the era of excess" as best we could throughout our 80s focused episodes.  You would think by now, nothing could or would surprise us but the more topics we focus on during the epoch of New Coke and Styrofoam container "Keep the cool side cool, keep the hot side hot"  fast food meals keeps us learning new things about the "Me-First" Decade.  During the 80s, if you could combine that rock star appeal crossover with your movie, you had gold and of course nothing (outside of space aliens) attracted the masses more than those oh-so loveable movie cops.  They were everywhere and like the decade, they abided by the "Go Big or Go Home" motto.  Explosions, one-liners, dirty apartments, severed relationships, perhaps a dog and half a six pack and you were good to go.  On this episode of Formidable Opponents, we focus on the heyday of "the loose cannon," "the buddy cop," "the loner,"  "the cagey vet," the jester," and perhaps even a robot, or two.  This week Formidable Opponents argue "Best 80s Movie Cop"
