After a bit of a heavier week, let's start this one off with some giggles!

The subtitle "From the Files of Police Squad!" is in reference to the TV show "Police Squad!" from which this is adapted. It was basically the same thing: Leslie Nielsen as Frank Drebin, solving crimes with the same kind of slapstick spoof comedy, only a half-hour at a time. The show was canceled pretty quickly, and the creators guessed it was because many of these kinds of jokes only work if the viewers are paying close attention, and with TV they're more likely to put it on in the background. Thus, they turned the show into a movie, borrowing many of the jokes they'd already done on the show, and the movie was a hit, spawning 2 sequels. The "Weenie in a Bottle" song you referenced, despite whatever Google told you, is *not* actually a Weird Al song, although it is routinely misattributed to him, as are several other parodies by various artists. The would-be assassin was a cameo by real California Angels baseball player Reggie Jackson. The announcers were all cameos as well, including Dr. Joyce Brothers, who is of course a doctor and not actually a baseball commentator. If you had fun with this, in addition to the above recommendation Top Secret!, I also highly recommend Hot Shots!, which is in this same vein. I won't tell you what they're spoofing, but rest assured, you'll get the jokes.

You should check out the two Hot Shots movies if you need more goofy movies to watch. They make fun of Top Gun, Rambo, Flight of the Intruder and some other movies... kind of like how Spaceballs makes fun of Star Wars.

These types of comedies came from an idea that putting serious dramatic actors in a goofy comedy might be interesting. Leslie Nielson was a serious leading man for most of his career, but his timing and wonderful deadpan delivery made him a natural comic actor,

So, what was the sad heavy movie that made you cry bucketloads that you watched right before this one?
