It’s the time of Google, no one has to go without knowing anything, but I can’t find the newfie. So. . . ?
It is a play on words transcending languages and root of a punchline for a old Canadian joke…

NYPD Blue is actually slang for the cops. I think it’s also shorthand for their uniforms. I grew up watching the popular police shows of the 60’s and 70’s. Streets of San Francisco had a lot of good camera work showing the then edgy neighborhoods like the Tenderloin and the Mission district. As a New Yorker it still piqued my interest to visit which I did a couple of times years later.
When they were popular you could tell there was a change in the scripts for more topicality and drama particularly post Manson family. “Crazed hippie cults, get me a rewrite!” Though the infamous Dragnet “Blue boy” episode was around the Summer of love and Be in’s. There is also a Dragnet episode where they infiltrate a White Nationalist militia trafficking in firearms who were afraid of sociatial changes. It mimicked a lot of today’s news. Needless to say they got their comeuppance. Even though Friday and Gannon had a conservative demeanor there was a very Mueller like fundamental fairness about them.
Sounds like an alcohol related incident to me.

I remember newfie jokes! Newfoundland was pretty isolated back in the day…
“A clown, a curb, and 9/11.”
My God, where do you come up with this stuff so fast?
And, even though everyone’s gone on to talk about something else, I wanted to share this story: First time I was in NYC I got out of the cab on the street side. The cabbie tore me a new one then took off without giving me change for a $20 on a $3.50 fare.
It seems to me anyone who has been in New York for that length of time would know that basic rule, which leads me to believe it was intentional.

It’s quotable throughout but I particularly when the venomous Addison De Witt says
“Ah, San Francisco. An oasis of civilization in the California desert.
