Storyline
Marginally a "straight" police drama in the Jack Webb/Quinn Martin school, Police Squad occurs in a strange universe where everything is taken literally (when a name "rings a bell" we hear bells go off every time someone mentions it), non sequiturs occur (a mime tries to spell out a ransom note, and Officer Nordberg guesses "Theme From a Summer Place") and sight gags abound (while looking for a corpse, someone wants to know the time and the dead man's hand drops out of a tree).

Trivia
ABC wanted the show to have a laugh track, but David Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and Jerry Zucker wouldn't give in. See more »Crazy Credits
The announcer's episode title and the title shown on screen never matched. See more »Alternate Versions
The home video versions of some episodes have changed music in some scenes. For instance, when they sing "Happy Birthday" at a birthday and when 'Leslie Nielsen' sings Judy Garland tunes in the nightclub. Presumably this is due to a music licensing issue. See more »Frequently Asked Questions

...a burlesque dancer to Det. Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen) as he approaches her in a dressing room...
"Yes, that's very impressive, but that's not why were here"...(Det. Drebin's deadpan response)
The best sight-gag comedy ever. But of course, it got crushed in the ratings and was yanked right away. Our loss.
I recently purchased a VHS tape with three episodes for my dad and watched 'em again with him. I'm happy to report that if you like the Zucker's style of humor (first unleashed in "Airplane"), you'll have a blast.
