"Police Squad!" is a comedy television series that aired in 1982, created by David Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and Jerry Zucker. The show parodies police procedural dramas, featuring the bumbling detective Frank Drebin, played by Leslie Nielsen. Each episode follows Drebin as he investigates various crimes, often encountering absurd situations and humorous misunderstandings. The series is known for its unique style, incorporating visual gags and deadpan humor. Although it was short-lived, lasting only six episodes, "Police Squad!" gained a cult following and inspired the successful Naked Gun film franchise, further solidifying its place in comedy history.
