Episode 09: Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult (1994)
We have finally reached the end (until the reboot comes out, at least) of our journey with Lt. Frank Drebin of Police Squad! with Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult (1994). And oh what a journey it has been. The boys are back in L.A. (did they ever really leave?) with mostly new jokes and a new villain, played by Fred Ward. The plot, such as it is, is even hinkier than the previous two entries but now we've got Anna Nicole Smith thrown into the mix. That subtitle is looking particularly on the nose when all's said and done. Enjoy!
