Cop Shows, produced by Disney for ABC Kids and then briefly shown in reruns on Toon Disney, this show features safety officers Cornelius Fillmore and Ingrid Third cracking cases around middle school in the style of, well, 1. Cop Shows. Many episodes also parodied various films and Television series including The Silence of the Lambs. Cancelled before its time, for one of the very reasons that made it so good: the entire premise rests on smartly parodying a genre that children wouldn't be familiar with, and, like Freakazoid before it, the watching demographics skewed older than desired, and the rest is history. On the one hand, you put Stainless away. But on the other hand, you destroyed an entire shipment of brushed steel stalls, you ruined a month's supply of macaroni, and you allowed the most notorious graffiti vandal in the history of the school to escape. In a much later episode, . One of the recurring dialogues of the episode is that standardized tests are not only ineffective, but are damaging and counterproductive for more creative children and for others who do not test well. Although the points about . Granted, towards the end of the episode, Fillmore and Ingrid's sentiments are that although standardized tests are overly- binary, the best ways of pointing out their failures are through . With that kind of effort put in (which does happen in Real Life with tests like the SATs) it's no wonder she was upset it had been stolen. And even a slight variation on a standarized test can be major. Balloon Belly: Joyce in . A boy who drew his name on toilet stalls is kept in solitary confinement. Crimes such as making false baseball cards will result in Filmore hunting you down. Consider that said boy used a pencil no bigger than 3 centimeters to deface an entire room and it kinda makes sense. Given proper equipment..... In it, Fillmore consults with Randall the Vandal, who is kept in a permanent state of detention, in order to gain insight into the mind of the mystery vandal 'Stainless'.

It has all the industrial capabilities of a small city. One major example occurs in the last episode wherein Ingrid and a witness (a boy) swap clothes to decoy the kids chasing them. Thing is, they and Fillmore were hiding in a small closet when the swap was made, so the show got away with two middle school boys seeing a middle school girl in her underwear after shucking clothes in a closet. When he sees the sight of a model train wreck, a shade of green appears on each of his cheeks, as he gets the urge to throw up and heads for the restroom. Groupie Brigade: Checkmatey has one in . A kid's show, on Disney Channel, has a Hannibal lecture. Yeah, you're damn right this show was a pastiche of something its younger viewers wouldn't recognize. Hero Stole My Bike: And occasionally scooters, rolling chairs, and even a golf cart. Or the floor waxer. Heroes Want Redheads: The closest thing Fillmore has to a love interest is the redheaded Penny Madrid. Averted when he rejects her. If I Can't Have You: In Nappers never sleep the true culprit has this attitude. Impersonating an Officer. Inspector Javert: Truant Officer Langley Turk in . From the angle of the shreds, they determine which hand the shredder used to place the papers in. Turns out, it was all of the victims, working together to frame a non- existent shredder. ME! Later: Ingrid: Y'know, you could have done some acting classes instead of this whole revenge- on- the- drama- club trick. Given that many of the streets themselves are surnames in the first place, the character's names usually sound quite normal. Of course X Middle School has its own corn maze. Why wouldn't it? Love Makes You Crazy/Love Makes You Evil: Milder version of the second. Despite the show being mostly No Hugging, No Kissing, a lot of the cases' underlying motives involve one student's crush on another. Mc. Cloud Speech: Frequently. New Old Flame: Penny to Fillmore in . There's plenty of crushes and hugging among the secondary and one- off characters, but not between the main cast and there's no kissing other than a Fillmore's old partner receiving a chaste congratulatory kiss on the cheek from a classmate after he gets promoted to School Patrol Sheriff. No Name Given: Vallejo. Plus you can read her lips. No Periods, Period: Subtly averted: in a scene in . Now, make an educated guess. Eerie Pale- Skinned Brunette: Ingrid, as you can tell by the picture. The Password Is Always Swordfish: According to ! Even though the cast is made up of kids in school clubs, they treat their hobbies as seriously as any character on Law and Order. Scout Out: The Red Robins. Ship Tease: Between Fillmore and Penny in . For example, there was a genius art student turned graffiti artist kept in . One pretentious character remarks, when busted; ! The perfect marriage of form and function, of style and substance, of water and porcelain. The original was destroyed, but remains immortalized in a photograph. One wonders how much the writers and animators were making a tribute to their art history classes.. There's also a Pokemon reference in the early Season 1 episode Test of the Tested when Fillmore and Ingrid are chasing after Augie Samson and they run through a cheer practice.

Kim Possible handles this crap on a regular basis. The Proud Family has weird stuff happen on a semi- regular basis. In each of these instances, no one really bats an eye. This means that the reason no one thought to call the cops due to the murder attempt in the Checkmatey episode is that the adults of this world expect kids to handle their own life- threatening dangers. Also to note, Spinelli from Recess appears in the background of a pan of the school cafeteria in ! Another possible connection to Recess is that Ingird shares her last name with Thaddeus T. Third, the 3rd; the man whom Third Street Elementary was named after.
