This gag-packed Police Squad scene went wildly viral and it’s 2 minutes of perfect telly
One of our favourite things about Naked Gun – apart from the whole of Naked Gun, obviously – was that it opened our eyes to the TV series that came before it, Police Squad.
And while we rewatch the whole thing every now and again, it’s been a while since we’ve seen it, which made this particular scene going viral today even more of a pleasure.
Because it’s pretty much 2 minutes of perfect telly.
Police Squad! (1982)
This work of absolute comedy genius only ran for 6 episodes. But how many gems? Leslie Nieslen was just sensational. pic.twitter.com/t3IoCp2HSR— The Sting (@TSting18) August 1, 2023
Time to dig out the box set again …
Anyone who hasn't watched this should do so immediately, this minute, now. One of the funniest series ever made ever ever.

I recorded all six episodes on VHS that summer. What a great show.

We're sorry to bother you at a time like this, Mrs. Twice. We would have come earlier, but your husband wasn't dead then. đ
