(CNN) — The striking writers and Hollywood studios will meet for a third consecutive day Friday, after wrapping up “marathon” negotiations aimed at ending the nearly 150-day standoff.

Although the hyperbole came mostly from its critics, “NYPD Blue” was supposed to change broadcast television forever, and it didn’t. Yet as the show reaches the 30th anniversary of its premiere, its legacy includes introducing a few new curse words and carefully shot body parts to ABC, and 11 seasons as one of TV’s best crime dramas.
