EPISODE
Comrade Detective - Season 1
Description
Back in the 1980s, we show a series of dramatic events that illustrate a wide range of issues. The events of this series begin with the constant search by the Romanian police through many cases and events. On the other hand, the search for a mysterious murderer is still under way and will reveal a very big capitalist conspiracy. Another case in which investigators find themselves in the dangerous cat and mouse game is the most powerful suspect so far, a wicked priest in a country where there is no god or ruler.

It's a sketch the size of a miniseries, a molehill made into a mountain.

It slips in commentary under the guise of laughter, but the point of the joke, whether you chuckle or not, sticks with you.

It feels silly and outdated, yet the Communist propaganda parody is full of Marx references and witty nationalist gibes.
August 07, 2017
The case itself is full of twists and suspense and plenty of 80s cop drama cliches, but the real genius comes with the political edge.
August 17, 2017
And yet for all its off-the-wall wackiness and occasionally rococo caricatures, Comrade Detective is, in its own unique way, quite a serious little bit of telly.

The jokes are more prickling than hilarious, though I do cherish the recurring gag of the extras -- street vendors and security guards -- being given the dopiest lines, voiced by the weakest actors.

Faux-'80s Romanian cop series is a thought-provoking hoot.

You could call Comrade Detective a one-joke affair, but that could also be said of Airplane. Inside that one joke, series creators Brian Gatewood and Alessandro Tanaka have built a deep reservoir of comedy.

This six-episode series is meant to make us question the ways propaganda and slogans can infiltrate and influence society; a timely message wrapped tightly within an effective comedic conceit.

The result is a kind of Mad magazine parody of tough-guy 1980s cop shows crossed with a Marxist-Leninist version of Woody Allen's hilariously counterfeit Japanese spy thriller What's Up, Tiger Lily?
