 | | , The Detectives, The Bullshitters, Lazarus And Dingwall and The Preventers, Funky Squad, an Australian series, lampooned US police shows of the 1970s in general and the series The Mod Squad (ABC, 1968-73) in particular. |
 | | As with The Mod Squad, the heroes of Funky Squad were a team of young, 'hip' undercover cops, so cool and 'with-it' that they were able to pass undetected among kids on the street. |
 | | Before Funky Squad, all but Gleisner had also worked on another spoof sitcom, Frontline (ABC, 1994), which lampooned Australian TV current affairs programmes. |
