Image Credit: Bill Matlock/FoxFox clearly has some high-ish hopes forThe Good Guys, their new action-comedy cop spoof.
(Admittedly, theyve put it on Friday, aka the Timeslot of Doom.
And it didnt so well in the ratings last night.)

The genius of Whitfords performance starts with his mustache, which is gorgeous in its grungy awfulness.
The Mustache
Whitfords porno-stache is the most visible example of the shows very particular 70s-era tone.
The shows color scheme tends toward leisure-suit brown, and the soundtrack is packed full of retro-rock.
On a deeper level, the show is an explicit move backwards from theCSIbrand of serious, scientific crime-solving.
Thats a good thing: its a kick to see a cop show where nobody wears a lab coat.
Right now,The Good Guysis a compilation of very different tones.
That indicates a kind of cop version ofParks and Recreation.
Did you watchThe Good Guys, PopWatchers?
Which cameo surprised you more: Mikhail fromLost, or Nia Vardalos?
