Remembering #jimabrahams ... Top Secret (1984) https://weegiemidget.wordpress.com/2016/07/04/top-secret/
Realweegiemidget Reviews Films TV Books and more · FILMS… Top Secret (1984)The Top Secret comedy, until now! A rock and roll star film parody of World War II spy films and Elvis musicals set in East Germany.
A sad day around here. Director/writer Jim Abrahams has passed away, he was 80. The A in ZAZ, he and the Zucker Brothers were behind such great #80s comedies as Airplane!, Top Secret!, and Police Squad!/The Naked Gun (that’s a lot of exclamation points). He will be missed. #80smovies #JimAbrahams
R.I.P. Jim Abrahams. Thank you for all the laughter.

Tonight in 1982 — #PoliceSquad debuted on ABC.
This cop show parody starring #LeslieNielsen is the funniest thing I've ever seen on network TV, by a wide margin.
It spawned the #NakedGun films, from creators #DavidZucker, #JimAbrahams and #JerryZucker.
