Even in a future of rocket ships, videophones, all-knowing computers, and skyscrapers towering into space, there is need for law and order. In this futuristic parody of "Dragnet", Daffy Duck and Porky Pig are police officers Monday and Tuesday, patrolling the skies in their astro-car and pursuing a criminal named George "Mother" Machre.

This cartoon is a takeoff on the old radio/television show Dragnet. It's one of the better teamings of Porky and Daffy. Pay attention to the dialogue and the character names. Dragnet fans will either love or hate it, but I think it's very funny and well worth watching. Daffy is as insufferable as usual and Porky more than holds his own.
