What Season 11 of NYPD Blue

Andy Sipowicz and John Kelly share a detective partnership out of the 15th Precinct in Manhattan. Sipowicz is the veteran, but alcohol follows him both on the job and off duty, and his behavior raises doubts that the partnership will last long. Kelly genuinely cares about him, though his exasperation grows by the day. On top of this, Sipowicz's private life takes a hit as he reluctantly divorces Laura and begins a relationship with Janice Licalsi, a uniformed officer whose father, also a cop, takes money from mob boss Angelo Marino. The trial against Captain Fraker also weighs on the team, and Sipowicz fears his testimony may have hurt the prosecution.
