Police Squad Intro

From the makers of the Airplane movies this is a spoof parady and features Leslie Nielson as Lt. Frank Drebin. The beginning was almost the same but changed with guest star and title of episode. Alot of slapstick comedy. They don't make these type of shows. Spawned several movies.

And.....Rex Hamilton as Abraham Lincoln!

The voice over guy did the same voice over bits for the legit "Quinn Martin" productions of the 60's and 70's!

Series was ahead of it's time.

I think it's hilarious that they introduce the special guest, but he gets killed off and never appears in the episode after that.

This show was awesome, and way ahead of it's time!

....and what about the closing credits where the actors mock a freeze frame?

What a frickin' scream this show was!

I always loved this show....then I found out that it was IN COLOR and I was like 'Best show ever'

I used to love to see the special guest star meet its fate during the opening credits. I never figured out who Rex Hamilton was....

The announcer was veteran voice-over Hank Simms, who indeed worked on Quinn Martin's various opening titles {"CANNON", "BARNABY JONES", et. al.} and various awards ceremonies, including the yearly "Academy Awards"...

Hey, Major TV Networks: THIS is the 1980s TV series you should be doing a remake of! (And, quite likely now, people would watch it this time!)

[Metatarsal]

What a show.
