Hollywood Flashback: Before ‘The Naked Gun,' ‘Police Squad!' Took Its Shot

Four decades ago, Police Squad! didn't log much time with viewers but still lined up an impressive legacy. Following the success of 1980 spoof film Airplane!, which made $78 million at the box office ($214 million today) co-directors David Zucker, Jim Abrahams and Jerry Zucker hoped to make a similar comedy about police officers inspired by the 1950s Lee Marvin drama series M Squad. Then-Paramount exec Michael Eisner, who had championed Airplane!, offered them six episodes on ABC and promised that the process would be free of network meddling. More from The Hollywood Reporter 'South Park' Removed From Paramount+ Outside the U.S. Ex-'60 Minutes' Correspondent Steve Kroft Calls $16M Trump Settlement a "Shakedown" 'Ice Road: Vengeance' Review: Liam Neeson Returns for a Forgettable Sequel to an Already Forgotten Action Flick Police Squad! centered on bumbling officer Frank Drebin as played by Leslie Nielsen, known for dramatic roles before his crackup part in Airplane! 'Leslie never let on that he was in a comedy,' David Zucker tells The Hollywood Reporter of the late star's knack for deadpan humor. Co-starring Alan North, each episode kicked off with the murder of a notable guest, followed by Drebin cracking the case. Among the guests were William Shatner and Florence Henderson; John Belushi filmed a death scene, but when the actor passed away a day after the pilot aired, his appearance was shelved. Police Squad! premiered March 4, 1982, and had critics in stitches — THR's review praised the show for 'hitting the bullseye with uncanny accuracy' — but had trouble locking up ratings, leading to the series' cancellation after four episodes. The Police Squad! team had the last laugh, as Nielsen's Drebin returned for Paramount's 1988 film The Naked Gun, which David Zucker helmed. After two sequels, a Naked Gun reboot hits theaters Aug. 1 with Liam Neeson playing Drebin's son. Zucker feels burned to not be involved but is proud that the show has been rediscovered: 'It has really gained a following.'

Former CBS anchor warns Paramount merger marks ‘the end' of the network and ‘honest' journalism

Former CBS anchor Connie Chung warned on CNN Friday that the recent merger between Paramount Global and Skydance Media could be the 'end' of journalism as she once knew it. The FCC announced it approved an $8 billion merger between the two companies on Thursday with the deal set to close on August 7. This came after several controversies involving CBS, which Paramount owns, such as a lawsuit settlement with President Donald Trump over a '60 Minutes' segment and canceling 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.' Advertisement Based on the newly formed company Paramount Skydance Corp., the former 'CBS Evening News' anchor suggested the network she was a part of could lose all of its independence. 'I fear the end of CBS as I knew it,' Chung said on 'CNN News Central.' 'CBS was always a standalone network. It was autonomous. The news division was autonomous, and it was always unencumbered by pressures from politicians, including presidents, and unencumbered by bean counters. But now? I can see very clearly that the days that I remembered are long gone.' 3 The FCC announced it approved an $8 billion merger between the two companies on Thursday with the deal set to close on August 7. CBS via Getty Images She continued, 'Honest, unbiased, fact-based journalism is being tainted and those who practiced that journalism, like Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite, that kind of journalism has disappeared. I also fear that gone are the days of Frank Stanton, who was the president of CBS, who defended the rights of the journalism, the First Amendment, the fourth estate before Congress, and he represented all journalists in many ways.' Advertisement Chung placed more blame on Paramount's controlling shareholder Shari Redstone and Skydance Media CEO David Ellison for having 'tainted journalism' with their 'greed.' She also called out company's pledge to not implement any new DEI initiatives as an insult to her and other women and minorities at CBS. 3 Chung called out the company's pledge to not implement any new DEI initiatives as an insult to her and other women. Christopher Sadowski Several journalists have accused CBS and Paramount of acquiescing to Trump ahead of the merger through its settlement and cancellations, including Chung. 'I have difficulty believing what they claim, which is that the '60 Minutes' agreement had nothing to do with the merger, or a settlement had nothing to do with the merger, and also that the disappearance of Steve [sic] Colbert had nothing to do — it had only to do with financial issues. It all smells,' Chung said. Advertisement Paramount has been facing an intense backlash for its recent decisions, even from some of its own employees. 3 Several journalists have accused CBS and Paramount of acquiescing to Trump ahead of the merger through its settlement and cancellations. Getty Images Veteran '60 Minutes' producer Rome Hartman told Fox News Digital earlier this month that he thought the company's settlement with Trump was a 'cowardly capitulation by the corporate leaders of Paramount' and a 'fundamental betrayal' of CBS News. Advertisement Senators Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. and Ron Wyden, D-Ore., also sent a letter to Ellison demanding answers about the Trump settlement and the Colbert cancellation, suggesting anti-bribery laws may have been broken in order for the merger to proceed with FCC approval. Fox News' Joseph Wulfsohn and Brian Flood contributed to this report.
