N. Y. P. U.
Cracked #70, August 1968
a: Lugoze (Luis Zegarra)
N.Y.P.D. was a series about the police department in (where else?) New York City, mostly shot on location, about three police detectives on the job, Lt. Mike Haines (Jack Warden) and detectives Jeff Ward (Robert Hooks) and Johnny Corso (Frank Converse). The parody is a bunch of old cop jokes without requiring anyone to know anything about the show. The police siren in the opening was probably the source for the opening of Police Squad!
