This is an extreme long shot but its driving us mad.

Today we met someone that reminds us of an American actor from 90s era and we can't for the life of us remember who he is or what programme.

He is 40-50ish, thinning light hair, square face and we can picture him in a police uniform. We think he was the bad cop!

Please, anyone its really annoying!

Brian Dennehy?

[Filbert]

No, sorry. We'd thought of him. We've been going through listings for programmes and searching for their images. You know when you get one of those things in your head and you can't stop till you have the name....

Thanks tho

Is it Michael Rooker, who played the villain in Sea of Love, and one of the rednecks in Mississippi Burning?

[Filbert]

Sorry, not him either

Which programmes did you go through? 90's US cop (as opposed to private detective) shows...in uniform, station based?
Hill St. Blues (was that too early?)
NYPD Blue

[Filbert]

Hill St blues, NYPD blue, Lethal Weapon, Die Hard, basically anything we can think of with police in

this is probably silly but it wasn't Dennis Hopper in Speed was it?

Gene Hackman??

[UKbloke04]

this may sound silly too...but was it Richard Gere in Internal affairs

[The_Mac_Lad]

Is it Harvey Keital?

[galltin]

So is it film or tv or both?

[Filbert]

Ta for all your answers, but he's not that famous. He's just one of those guys whose face you know but you never know his name.

What about William H Macy?
