5. The LAPD got their panties in a bunch over their depiction, so to avoid a lawsuit the producers had the unies switch from wearing their badges over their heart, as is tradition, to over their right breast starting with episode 3.
4. Vic Mackey's iconic Polo Sport shades were a happy accident. The first day of filming was bright and Michael Chiklis didn’t have any sunglasses so he snagged a pair from a nearby bodega for $5.
3. Claudette was originally a man named “Charles” in the pilot script. When C.C.H. Pounder’s manager pushed for her to get an audition, she crushed it and creator Shawn Ryan immediately made the change.
2. The fisticuffs between Mackey and Kavenaugh at Lem’s murder scene was a little more real than intended. Equal parts miscommunication and misunderstanding, Chiklis’s shoulder smashed into Forest Whitaker’s face who responded by busting Chiklis’s lip. Nobody was seriously injured and the two were cool a few days later.
1. At 42 seconds long, the pause before Mackey gives his confession in the penultimate episode is one of the series’ heaviest moments. To bring it to life, Chiklis sat there playing out all his memories of the show, not just as his character, but as the actor who shared 7 years' worth of raw, vulnerable moments with his co-stars.
