Wired into 24

The Wire - Herc - Domenick Lombardozzi

He has long since left the Baltimore Police Department, but it's good to know that Herc AKA The Wire's knucklehead detective Thomas Hauk – is still, pardon our French, fucking up. Herc, or rather the actor who played him, Domenick Lombardozzi, returned to the small screen in the new series of 24 on Sky1. His character, New York cop John Mazoni, proved every bit as ruthlessly efficient as Herc, wrongly blaming Jack Bauer for a double homicide and taking matters into his own hands, tying him to a chair and savagely beating him up. No, Herc, he's the good guy! Never mind. Blame it on Fuzzy Dunlop.
