Police Squad / Sledge Hammer! & The Big Bus / Airplane / Top Secret etc.
I'm old enough to remember when Police Squad was still being shown on TV, to have seen Naked Gun in the cinema and when Sledge Hammer! was on late night TV here in the UK (although very obscure on Channel 4 I think - when we still only had four channels...). One viewing of an ad for this show was enough for me to see exactly where it's coming from.
If you are young and dig this show, and like to know about the history of where things originated then check them out - along with The Big Bus (1976), Airplane (1980), Top Secret! (1984). As you can see, the fad of this kinda surreal/spoof humour was at it's peak from the late seventies to the late eighties and although it's almost completely dead now (as far as I am aware), it did peter out with the likes of Hot Shots (1991) and Loaded Weapon (1993).
I don't think Angie Tribica has aired in the UK yet but I'll be interested to see if it's any good, and if there's still an audience for this kinda thing. I hope it has some originality to it and isn't just a complete rip-off. It would have been nice if they had set it in a seemingly more original setting than a police / crime scenario though, as that has been done by the aforementioned Police Squad / Sledge Hammer! already. I think if i'd been writing it, I would have kept the humour style but taken up the challenge of a new scenario.
