Moonbeam City

2015 · 1 season

A neon-drenched, joke-a-second cop parody that feels like a sugar-rush fever dream of 80s excess.

Tagline: Sex. Violence. Pastels.
Overview: An absurdist, retro-futuristic 80s cop extravaganza. The series follows undercover detective Dazzle Novak, a handsome idiot who commits more crimes than most criminals. His tyrannical chief, Pizzaz Miller, won't get off his back, and hotshot rookie Rad Cunningham is dying to see him fail. With the world against him, Dazzle is thrust into a living nightmare: having to do actual police work.
How it feels: Absurd, satirical, campy and cynical. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Corruption, crime, identity, obsession
Content: Strong sexual content and language. Mild violence and gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
