Like many other episodic shows of the period the show "recycled" actors in various roles. For example: Florence Halop appeared as Ms. Mable Kleiner, Mrs. Pierce, Evelyn Holly, Karen Golden, Wanda LaMear and Wilma Kestner. Don Calfa appeared as Mr. DiLucca, Angelo Dodi, Leon Bidell, Calvin J. Kendall, Gilbert Lesco, Arthur Thompson and Eddie.

During its broadcast run amid the many cop shows on television, many real-life police officers considered this the TV show that best depicted the reality of police life.

A sign on the wall behind the holding cell read "Please Do Not Spit On The Floor".

Yemana: [when he's stoned on the brownies with the hashish] Barney, Barney, Barney, is your mother from Killarney?

Barney Miller: That's not the way we operate around here. We do everything by the book, according to regulations, above board.

Captain Barney Miller: So Dietrich, big plans for the weekend?
