Do New Yorkers really talk like this?

Asked by Judi (40025points) October 17th, 2011 from iPhone

I have been watching the new TV series Blue Bloods and every once in a while, instead of saying “RIGHT NOW” they will say FORTH WITH”
Example, a police officer finds a gunshot victim and yells “Call a bus! Forth with!”
I remember NYPD Blue used to use that kind of language too. Is it just a writer thinking he’s Shakspear or do New Yorkers really talk like that?
