Police Squad

Leslie Nielsen stars as Frank Drebbin in this spoof detective series. Famous for its sight gags and strange titles (where guest stars either meet untimely ends or suddenly get shot at and return fire). This was made by the same people who made Airplane and Naked Gun, also starring Neilsen. Bizzarley it only ran for 6 episodes and was cancelled because "people would have to watch it to appreciate it". Left clip – Titles with brief BBC2 continuity Right clip – credits with the customary freeze frame end shot which, as you'll see, isnt all it seems!
