Police Squad

on BBC Two England

From the creators of Airplane!, the American comedy series that spawned the Naked Gun hit movies was short-lived: only six episodes were made. Here is another chance to see this now cult-status comic spoof, filled with sight-gags and non-sequiturs and starring Leslie Nielsen as the straight-faced but incompetent Detective Frank Drebin.
At the start of the first episode, probably irrelevantly entitled A Substantial Gift, two men lie dead in the office of Acme Finance Credit Union.
