Yep. But that is also because it got cancelled after 6 episodes. Back in 1982 it was unusual at the time viewers "had to think" watching comedy shows. The last joke with the priest was too clever. Comedy shows consisted of a simple plot and canned laughter.
Whatta brilliant running gag this was. On a related note, you never know what sort of intellect someone has, just based on their job or outward appearance. Thanks Dad for teaching me to respect everyone unless they prove themselves unworthy.
Are you from Sweden?? I love all these Johnny clips. The fireman and the surgeon. Do you got these clips?? Jag är från Sverige. Jag vet inte om du är det.
Small numbers game: Johnny earns about 40 dollars from each customer and if Drebin is regular customer he informs about 30 customers in one hour. That is about 1200 dollars of income every hour. If he works seven hours (one hour goes to lunch and two coffee breaks) that means 8400 dollars every day. Even with smallest US banknote he gets 60 dollars per hour which is decent and means 420 dollars every working day.
“Existential being” is a redundancy, not to mention that an “anthropomorphic deity” would also qualify as an “existential being.” Johnny needs to brush up a bit on his theology.
Maybe he means one that is a being that exists in the world in a form we do not know/comprehend, all we know is that it "exists", while the others are animal god's like Hinduism or Egyptian
"being" can also mean "existing". In this context used specifically because of the proximity of the philosopical adjective "existential", which ironically has noting to do with existing. "Are you talking Existential (adjective, derived from Existentialism) Being (adverb, derived from "to be")?" You could also use the formation: "An Existential Being", meaning a being that conforms to the theories described in Existentialism, similar to the concept of a "Rational Actor" from Economics, or the "Philosophical Zombie" used to advocate for the existence of souls.
I thought this was going to be bizarre slapstick stoner humor for hippies and the immature like Airplane, but I was pleasantly surprised that this was actually very amusing.
your mom was immature when she raised you. Airplane is a disaster movies parody. this one is a cop series parody. if it's something out of your tastes, it doesn't make it iMmAtUrE
Johnny was the search engine of the early 80ies :-)
For real brah low key got some kinda Bing thing going on ikr
I believe his surname is Jeeves. You just have to ask him!
I think he is closer to a Wikipedia article.
80ies
@@siler7 Okay, the 80s.
"Existential Being, or Anthropomorphic Deity?"
This was the one that tied me up laughing and continues to have the same effect 40 years' later.
Completely agree
I love the way Johnny keeps looking left and right as he carries out his task.
In a world filled with lousy sitcoms...Police Squad stands as a monument to comedy.
so true. this is so good, the all knowing shoeshine guy just popped into my mind out of nowhere. last time I saw this must have been the 90ties
Plenty of rubbish on the telly nowadays. Particularly in America.
I loved that show back in the day
in the museum of noses, there goes the Mona Lisa!

Johnny just happened to have the address on him. 😂
Such a subtle joke. This show worked on so many levels.
He knew the question was coming.

Not only did he have the adress, it was in print with a nice set of complementary print on it as well.
I wish I had a Johnny Shoe Shine guy
His name is Google. Not as reliable, but the closest thing.
@@idontknow164 Google has too much unreliable info. Johnny is always correct.

I love this guy slip him a 10 dollar bill 💵 and he knows everything 😃.
lol cutting off the rubber supply from Brazil!!😂😂😂
Yep he know everything 😂
Who knew?
Thank you, back2rule. Absolutely wonderful. William Duell (Johnny in this clip) passed away December 22, 2010. May his memory be a blessing.
He's personally researching the ultimate question.
2011 actually. I'm glad to see he lived to be 88 years old.
When “The Naked Gun” came out in 1988 I was so disappointed that Johnny didn’t appear.
He was doing Earnest movies instead
The Google of his Time. Great Gag, absolute prizeless
Johnny was so good he already knows the questions miles away and had tickets and calling cards ready. Beat that Siri
This show was loaded with little nuggets of hilarity. Check out the photo of the Beaver and Bunny-man once Leslie gets up, and out of the chair.
And 6 years later I am trying to work out the significance of the beaver and the bunny man….

It's good once, it's good twice, it's good three or four times. I have yet to find the limit. Perhaps I should ask Johnny.

And give the ones that make the most noise, a more thorough check over. Or leave them alone.
I take a similar approach, assume everyone is an idiot until proven otherwise.
Jhonny is now CEO of google.
He is Google.
He should teach you how to spell Johnny.
@@andrewleah1983 No he is different, so are the spellings of his name.
Remember the scene well. Superb.
This is straight out of an old episode of Kojak! 😂😂
Johnny the Shoeshine Guy always solves the case.
That must be Steve Buscemi's uncle.
wow what a character
First exposure to Johhny and this program. I like the set-up.
@@stephen-ng thanks Stephen for the heads-up.
Johnny Know-it-all ... 🤣🤣🤣
Actor from one flew over the cuckoo's nest!!
😅 .........the rubber supply
I wish he was in the naked gun movies
No more shinebox Johnny.
The first guy was Alan Greenspan
for real or just the character?
No.
Holy crap. I need to talk to Johnny for some advice on the stock market!
Best show ever

Remember when a dollar could buy something?
johnny shoeshine he'll make your shoes look like F@ckin Mirrors lol
He made a lotta money, too. Salut!
This guy has to be the most intelligent shoeshine boy in the world....
Better than Siri.
Johnny used to shine my shoes,can't say I ever learnt much from him but then again I am a bit of a skinflint
Needless to say, when Johnny finally retired it was to the Bahamas and a swell lifestyle... 😎🏖

Snitch brings stitches..
Police Squad was MILES better better than the Naked Gun movies that followed.
Lolll im dying
