About Police Squad!

Police Squad! ended on July 8, 1982, on ABC. The show was a comedy and crime series that aired in 1982. It was a parody of police dramas from the 1960s and 1970s, featuring humorous sight gags and misunderstandings in dialogue that often left characters confused and audiences amused. Police Squad! was known for its quick-paced humor, visual gags like a tow truck shaped like a big toe, and comedic misunderstandings, all set within a parody of classic police procedurals. The series was short-lived but left a lasting impression with its unique style of humor. Leslie Nielsen starred as Det. Frank Drebin, with Alan North as Capt. Ed Hocken and Rex Hamilton portraying Abraham Lincoln. The show received a rating of 8 on TVMaze and each episode had a runtime of approximately 30 minutes.
