About
"Deadpan cop-show parody at machine-gun joke speed"
Angie Tribeca follows a hardboiled LA cop who takes every case with dead-serious intensity, even though the crimes and dialogue around her are absurd. It's a rapid-fire spoof of gritty police procedurals, stuffed with visual gags, puns, and deadpan absurdity in the tradition of Airplane! and Police Squad. Each episode wraps a self-contained case around a barrage of jokes that come so fast some are bound to land. The pace is relentless and the tone never breaks character, which is exactly the point and exactly what makes it either delightful or exhausting depending on your taste for silliness.
Watch it for
the sheer density of visual and verbal gags packed into every deadpan procedural setup.
Maybe skip if
you find rapid-fire absurdist humor tiring rather than fun.
