The second season of NYPD Blue, an American television police drama set in New York City, aired as part of the 1994-95 United States network television schedule for ABC, premiering on October 11, 1994 and concluding on May 23, 1995. The show explores the internal and external struggles of the fictional 15th precinct of Manhattan. Each episode typically intertwines several plots involving an ensemble cast.
The season earned three Primetime Emmy Awards, one for "Outstanding Drama Series", another for "Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series" (Shirley Knight), and a Creative Arts Emmy for its casting. The show received an additional 10 nominations.
Production
In the hiatus between Seasons 1 and 2, David Caruso reportedly demanded a raise from $40,000 per episode to around $100,000/per, and also that the show simultaneously shift the series back to a primary focus on his Det. John Kelly (away from the S1 balance between Caruso/Kelly and Dennis Franz/Andy Sipowicz focal points) while giving him mandated time off to film movies in-season. David Milch and Steven Bochco agreed that they could not work with Caruso anymore and informed him that he would be permanently written off the series before Season 2 began. After intense negotiations, Caruso and Milch/Bochco reached an agreement for four episodes of work to write off Kelly to start Season 2. By this point, the show had cast Jimmy Smits to play Andy's new partner, Det. Bobby Simone.
Plot summary
Licalsi is found guilty of the manslaughter of Marino and his driver and is given a two-year sentence. Because of his involvement with Licalsi, and the belief that he withheld evidence that could have given her a longer sentence, Kelly is transferred out of the 15th and chooses to leave the department altogether. He is replaced by Bobby Simone, a widower whose previous job was that of driver for the Police Commissioner. This does not sit well with Sipowicz but in time he learns to accept his new partner and, as his relationship with Sylvia leads down the aisle, asks Simone to be his best man.
After an affair with a journalist who uses information that he gives her in an article, Simone begins a relationship with another new officer in the squad, Diane Russell. Sipowicz, a recovering alcoholic, recognizes in Russell's behavior that she also has a problem and, after much prompting, she herself goes to AA. Elsewhere, due to his lack of self-belief that a woman like Donna could love him, Medavoy's relationship with her breaks down, due in no small part to Donna's visiting sister.
