Funky Squad (1995)
Directed by Santo Cilauro, Tom Gleisner, Jane Kennedy
“In an effort to combat growing crime, the police developed an elite new team.”
Crime, Comedy, Mystery · 3h 30m
Funky Squad was a short-lived 1995 Australian comedy television series which satirised 1970s-era U.S. police television dramas, such as The Mod Squad. Only 7 half-hour episodes were produced, which were broadcast on the ABC. Real television commercials from the 1970s were shown during the program's "commercial breaks". The show featured four "funky" undercover detectives: undetectable as police, given their "hipness". The conclusion of each episode was deliberately designed to be incredibly predictable: usually the perpetrator of the crime under investigation could be identified within the first few minutes of the episode.
