Reno 911

[Lightsped]

Anyone here watch Reno 911? Pretty funny show.

I laughed at the "Terrorism Training" episode where Lt. Dangle and Dep. Junior respond to a call in front of a house, and find a man hiding under a child's plastic swimming pool.

Did anyone notice how Dep. Junior held his pistol when he drew down on the suspect? He held it in his right hand (which was titled 90 degrees), and with his left hand he was holding the rear of the slide.

Kind of hard to describe, but it was funny. It would be a awesome screenshot.

I received special permission to wear these shorts. I've got to be fast . . . like a cheetah!

Where the &*%$#@ is my bike!!!

Great piece of work. My favorite documentary after "King of the Hill."

Reno 911 is great. I loved Garcia's "pinata" that he whacked with his 9mm and displayed his anger management problem.

[Chupacabra]

I loved the episode where Junior and another guy (can't remember who exactly) responded to a call where crazy dude was shooting passerbys with a paintball gun. They show up in full paintball gear and proceed to aprhend the dude with superior tactics.

i like the prostitution stings.

and when they beat up the mascots.

 

[Greg L]

Garcia constantly getting his baton taken away from him .

Great show, my wife just sighs & rolls her eyes while leaving the room .

 

[BenW]

Ya gotta love when Garcia beats the hell outa the mime. "...you're talkin' English now, aren't ya?!?"

 

[Destructo6]

It's a great show. I just wish they'd left it on Wednesday nights.

Looks like Comedy Central is doing a mid-day Reno 911 marathon today.

 

[jamz]

One of my favorite shows, when I remember to watch TV.

"Car 54, officer down! Officer down! 188 smith street!"

"I'll be right there!"

He hits the lights, guns it through some turns, arrives at the address.

Leaps out of his car, weapon drawn, bashes down the door to a darkened house. "Freeze!"

The lights turn on.. SUPRISE!! *BAM*! He shoots one fellow officer COM, who goes down, just as he realizes that it is a suprise birthday party for him.

There is a long, pregnant silence....

"Uh, happy birthday, Carl."
"Yeah happy birthday. Suprise!"
"We'd better get an ambulance here...."


They do it on camera much better than I can describe it here.

Funny, funny stuff.

I laugh so hard whenever Jones and Garcia are on patrol. My two favorite skits are when they go up to the taco stand and they don't get the clues that they are being robbed and Jones looks at the wrapper and reads it.

Jones: Officers, there are two armed men inside.

Garcia: I hope there are two-armed men in there. One-armed men wouldn't be able to make tacos.

The one at school training kids SAFE.

Garcia: Since we figure most of you carry guns to school anyway, we just wanted to let you know that there's not a damn thing we can do about it.

Jones: Not a damn thing.

Garcia: So, we figured we show you how to select the best gun and how to safely shoot it to put your man down. We are going to teach you SAFE. Steady. Aim. Fire. Everybodys. OK. This way you hit your target and we don't get the watermelon seed effect.

I also forgot the episode with the FBI. They are infront of the podium and need to introduce the FBI guys, but they don't know there names.

Dangle: Okay, the FBI agents want one of us to introduce them at the press conference. Who remembers their names?

Garcia: Ooh, ooh! Deputy James Garcia!

 

[Sean Smith]

That show is great.

"Do you know that you look EXACTLY like Leonard Nimoy?"

Deputy Travis Junior: Getting two tickets to an execution is like getting two tickets to NASCAR, except you *know* Jeff Gordon's gonna die.

Lt. Jim Dangle: We have two passes to be witnesses at an execution. I know we all want these, so we're gonna do this the way we generally handle these things and we're gonna have a scavenger hunt.

 

[OF]

That show is too funny I love when what's-her-name takes the sex offender out to introduce himself to the neighborhood. "I'm kind of a foodie."

HA!

[Sean Smith]

FBI Agent: Hey, get out of that freezer, sir! That's for dead people, not living idiots.

 

[Lightsped]

I like the Terroism Training episode the best. The way the middleeastern trainer guy puts them down, and how the trainer tries to make Dep. Wiegel feel better about her job/life.

How about when Lt. Dangle asks Dep Jones to help him move, after they get the car loaded up, they move everythng down the street a house or two. Not across town like Jones thought they would.....

 

[BenW]

Yeah, Jones is actually one of my favorites on the show because he's the only "semi-normal" person on the crew and he always (like in the "moving" episode) has one of those, "What the hell have I gotten myself into?" expressions on his face.

 

[ENC]

The best is Junior with the drug dog.

Not very good at finding drugs but excellent at finding sloppy joes. So he goes with a mixture deciding to work up to only drugs

 

[hansolo]

Book 'em, Reno

I just saw a few episodes for the first time...funny!

My favorite: two of the cops in a classroom showing young kids the correct way to shoot someone(!)as well as "show and tell" with a few different handguns "...cause you little girls have smaller hands..."

It fills the niche that "Jackass" left open.

 

[spacemanspiff]

one scene that was in a preview but not in an episode was supposedly the next day after jones helped dangle move. remember jones said "well i'll try anything once" and gave into dangles advances?
next mornings roll call, jones announces: "lt dangle is in the hospital. he cant walk."
everyone asks 'why?'
jones: "uhhhh, i dont want to talk about it."


the halloween pranks on weigel were great.

and the suicide watch for weigel?
"want to spoon?"

 

[Destructo6]

next mornings roll call, jones announces: "lt dangle is in the hospital. he cant walk."
everyone asks 'why?'
jones: "uhhhh, i dont want to talk about it."

I believe that wasin that episode, or something similar. IIRC it went somethig like:

• Jones: I'm taking role because Lt. Dangle is in the hospital.
  voice(s): why?
  Jones: Put it this way: he can't walk. Just leave it at that

 

[Ryder]

He'd still be walking if he'd strapped an apparatus to his head.

 

[gbelleh]

What does DDEOD stand for?

Dark...dude...eating...oriental delights?

 

[Combat-wombat]

Hahah! I love Reno 911. Yeah, Wednesday was a better day for it.

"But it's not free, it costs a buck!"





And my fav, about the show: "you know the world's a funny place when shows like Reno 911 and Supertroopers are more accurate than Law and Order." - Buddy of mine in the CHP.

I loved the 4th of July episode where they are instructed to confiscate all fireworks because the Mayor's son blew his thumb off.

Then they accidentally blow up the ice cream/fireworks truck.
