David Zucker, one of the men behind Airplane!, The Naked Gun, and, probably my favorite, Top Secret! created a hysterical campaign ad for the Republican party that features a faux Madeleine Albright making nicey-nice with evil dictators and terrorist while they continue to wreak havoc on the world. Drudge reports that the ad was rejected by the GOP for being too over the top. I find it hard to tell if the ad is really meant as a slam against Democrats, or his own satirical view of how Republicans see anyone who's opposed to them. Did Zucker really think this would be used, or was he just having some fun? I don't really know, I just sit back and enjoy it, because it is really funny. Check it out after the jump.

That's the word from tvshowsondvd.com. They have confirmation from Paramount Home Entertainment last week that the show is finally coming to DVD next year (no specific info on the date or extras or anything like that).

This is really good news, since I'm sure hardcore Police Squad fans have played their videotapes over and over and over again, until the tapes have been stripped bare. There were only six episodes of the show made, so we'll probably see them all on one DVD. The movies just weren't as good as the TV show, in my opinion, and even though I have them on DVD, I don't think I've watched them half as much as I've watched the episodes of the show, so this release news is great indeed.
