Notes and Trivia[]

  • Judy is the only one of the Jump Street gang who has a college degree.
  • Judy is the only one of the Jump Street gang who lost a child (due to a abortion) and the fourth Jump Street gang member to have child known on the TV Series or Movie the first is Captain Richard Jenko who has presumably son Greg Jenko and the second is Captain Adam Fuller who has a son Kingpin “Kip”Fuller and the third is Sal Banducci who has four children and the fifth is Doug Penhall who adopts his widow Marta nephew Clavo as his own son/legal ward and the sixth is Captain Dickson who has a daughter.
  • Judy is one of two of Jump Street officers who was promoted to sergeant (Ioki was the other). Later, she is the only JS officer to be promoted to detective. When Doug Penhall angrily suggests that Hoffs was promoted over him because she was a "double minority" (as a black female), Hoffs points out that she has a college education and worked with the mayor's office over the previous summer, among other reasons why she was picked over Penhall.
  • Judy is erroneously given three different middle names in the show's five-year run. Jenko calls her Judith Esther in season one. Her mother calls her Judith Marie in season two. In season three, Judy tells Charles Greening that her middle name is Ann. The 21 Jump Street DVDs gives Judy's middle name as Marie.
  • Holly Robinson Peete sang the theme song, with Johnny Deep and Peter DeLuise ad-libbing "jump!" whenever necessary.
  • Peete (then Robinson) appeared in the most episodes of the show. In Second Place is Steven Williams, who also stayed for all five seasons, but did not appear until the seventh episode of the first season. Third Place is Peter DeLuise who left at the beginning of the fifth season.
  • Holly also has a Music Credit for every episode since she sung all the versions of the theme song.
  • However, this does not mean Judy appeared in every episode. Some episodes such as the El Salvador one had only Tom and Doug in it. Other episodes had all the cast members even if they only Cameoed. The cast budget in several Season 5 episodes was reduced to only two people: Adam and Anthony.
  • Despite the episode gaps, she is the only cast member that appeared from the Pilot to the Series Finale.
  • And she also appeared in at least one episode of Booker.
