CAR 54, Where Are You? is considered one of the best television
comedies ever produced. From 1961 to 1963, Officers Toody and
Muldoon were among the most unlikely patrol-car partners ever seen
on a police force. Toody was short, stocky, and just a it nosy, a
marked contrast to the tall, quiet Muldoon. Although they were
assigned to New York's fictional 53rd precinct -- a run down area
of the Bronx not generally considered a hotbead of hilarity -- they
always seemed to encounter more comedy than crime. From the episode
"Something Nice for Sol" to the classic Christmas episode of 1961,
this light-hearted comedy offered a heart-warming approach to our
police force at work. The comedy was invariably of the broad
slapstick variety reminiscent of Mack Sennett -- and one episode
even saluted the Keystone Cops! Created by Nat Hiken, this
television program now receives a superb review including
biographies on the lead actors, the creation of the series,
detailed listings of all 60 television episodes, broadcast history,
cast list, plot summaries and lots of behind-the-scenes stories.
