Nick Yemana. On the strength of one episode: When someone (I think it was Wojo) brings in some 'special' brownies.

Mushy, Mushy, Mushy.

Tough to decide. Many great characters.
Inspector Lugar and Dietrich come to mind, but I also loved Levitt.
The inspector from internal affairs was also very good. Great show. One of the few comedies that's still funny today.

Dietrich had one of the funniest lines ever on that show. An FBI agent was working with them on a case, and after it was solved:

AGENT (to Dietrich): You really ought to consider coming to work for the Bureau.

DIETRICH: Nah, I could never work for a guy like Hoover.

AGENT: But surely you've heard that Mr. Hoover is dead!

DIETRICH (smiling): Oh is THAT what they told you...

I posted it from memory so it may not be exact. Steve Landesberg was a standup comedian before he got that role (still is I suppose) and he was very funny.
