Comedy Central’s new Cops parody, Reno911! launched this week. We get to see unlikely cops confronting unlikely criminals, and behind the scenes at the police station where all of the tawdry underbelly is revealed, with lust flying every which-a-way. It seems like something that would get tired fast, but frankly, it’s a little tired to begin with. There are a couple good performers in here, but all in all it’s cheap and obvious humor, not surprising enough to be funny nor subtle enough to be witty.
