Looking for the series itself? Also in this series: Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994)

Gritty where it counts, witty underneath
The difference: Reviewed even better

The same mix in both: play, then scale
The difference: Leans further into western

Both keep coming back to the same thing: slapstick comedy
The difference: Less epic, more its own thing

Gritty crime, and it commits to that

Comedy with a pulse of wit, in both cases
The difference: 31 years apart, and the 1960s show

Both lean on play more than on adventure

Epic crime in both cases

Comedy built on grit, twice over

The same preoccupation in both: kidnapping

Adventure built on wit, twice over

Both lean on play more than on crime

Comedy of the same temperament
In the mood for more gritty?
