Welcome to Episode 3 of “Let’s Watch Cop Rock,” an 11-episode podcast discussing that classic police procedural rock musical soap opera crime drama Cop Rock, 11 episodes of which aired on ABC during the fall of 1990.
Over the course of this podcast as a whole, we discuss the events of the show, our reactions to the music, and the ways this program worked, or didn’t work, and why some of it still seems very relevant today. Sometimes we get political. Sometimes we crack up uncontrollably. Sometimes we tell unbelievable but entirely true stories of our own lives’ intersections with crime or law enforcement or both. We always play Good Cop, Bad Cop, or Innocent Bystander? And sometimes we aren’t sure what to say beyond what. the. Fuck?
Two things are in the show notes for you to reference. One is the “Rainbow Sponge” super-cut video. It’s two minutes of extremely surreal sales pitch for a line of art sponges. The other is an image of Agent Dana Scully’s second season “look” from The X-Files for you to have a visual reference.
I want to emphasize you should watch the third episode of Cop Rock before listening to this episode of the podcast. It’ll make a lot more sense. If you want to chat about the show you can find Officer Orifice on Twitter at @OfficerOrifice. I’m there, too, as @CopRocker.
LInks to places where you can buy your very own copy of Cop Rock are in the show notes, but remember you can always find it on Amazon at a very reasonable price.
Our theme music is “The Crime” by reiswerk, with full attribution in the show notes. And now… Let’s Watch Cop Rock!
