The legacy of Police Squad

The early to mid 80s saw a plethora of wacky and ridiculous police themed movies. From the ill fated tv series "Police Squad" that became the basis for the Naked Gun movies to the ever popular Police Academy movies to one offs like "Moving Violations" and "Armed and Dangerous" to name a few. This was another one. Largely a vehicle for the unknown comic character, a comedian who tells bad jokes with a bag on his head as featured in the gong show, it also seriously milks the fart jokes with Billy Barty's police chief role. Some very funny moments, not brilliant but ok.
