Description:
Sledge Hammer! was a satirical police show that aired on ABC for two seasons, from 1986 to 1988. Created by Alan Spencer, the series introduced Inspector Sledge Hammer, a wildly exaggerated take on the classic hard-boiled detective. Played with hilarious over-the-top energy by David Rasche, Sledge Hammer! brought a distinctive brand of humor to television. Al Jean and Mike Reiss, who later became key writers for The Simpsons, wrote and story edited the show, adding to its comedic style.
