2022 movie #135. 1972. The most inept cop house in Boston is looking for a rapist using Welch as bait, a gang setting fire to bums using Reynolds as bait and trying to find a mad bomber (Brenner) killing city officials. Not really played for laughs but comical all the same.

It's retooled every few episodes, but usually involves two guys from the Battlestar Galactica hanging out on Earth.

It's the kind of bad you can have a few good laughs watching, if you like that kind of thing.

A giant space ship flies around the galaxy, ostensibly exploring but usually running errands.

Popcorn television. There's not much reason to like it. So much is badly done. There's not a single episode without at least one damning flaw. But I just love watching it.
