Send us Fan MailTonight’s episode: “The Case of...Why Even Bother?”After a long hiatus (caused by equal parts scheduling, neglect, and wild swings of indifference), the Aquaboys return - - fueled by melancholy and DayQuil.  Brian, once a proud host with a voice like a golden retriever, is now barely audible, having succumbed to a mysterious illness known only as “Feline AIDS”.Despite promising a tribute to the legendary Police Squad!, the team spends approximately 2% of the episode actually talking about it. The rest? Well, it’s a swirling mix of life updates and banter.  The Smartest Aquaboy is thrust into the spotlight, and does a great job.  The rest is audio loose stool.  It’s incoherent. It’s beautiful. It’s Aquaboy.Stay alert. Stay disappointed. Police Squad! is an American television crime comedy series that was broadcast on the ABC network in 1982. It was created by David Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and Jerry Zucker, starring Leslie Nielsen as Frank Drebin. A spoof of police procedurals and many other television shows and movies, the series features Zucker, Abrahams, and Zucker's usual sight gags, wordplay, and non sequiturs. It resembles the Lee Marvin police show M Squad (in particular the opening credits) and the late 1960s series Felony Squad.  It was canceled after six episodes and yielded The Naked Gun film series from 1988 to 1994.
