I believe, from all accounts, that Bocho left because he had been
overspending on each episode of Hill Street.  While the fate of the
show is left in a rather precarious position, I feel better that Milch
& company are being left in charge; they have been involved in the
majority of the scripts of the last 3 seasons.

Of course, the rumor of some characters leaving seems disturbing (and
rather unnecessary; St. E. has gotten by by having actors once featured
in the credits appear in semi-regular "guest roles").  The last episode
had Belker only appear for 30 seconds in the epilogue, and Hunter only
in the roll call.  Oh, well, we can only hope...
