Special Unit

Aiming lower than Reno 911 I think Titus shot himself in the foot with this one. While I like Titus' humor, this show is not the vehicle for him - it plays on all the "common bad cop/detective" clichés, poorly. In his attempt to make something that will offend everyone I think he went too far to the point that it is painful to watch and so formulaic/predictable that it is not funny. It is Titus playing Titus as a renegade detective, at least he gets a cool car...

Now it was just the pilot but IMHO even Comedy Central is not that desperate for new programing - they could run the Daily Show from 3 years ago and it would get higher ratings than Special Unit ever would.

I watched Ishtar years ago just to see how bad the movie really was - trust me you need not see this - it is almost as bad as Ishtar.

Better luck next time Titus.

I strongly DISAGREE with the first commenter!! I LOVED the pilot of "Special Unit" and can't imagine why Comedy Central didn't pick it up.

The Fox show "Titus" was a cathartic release for those of us from dysfunctional families...therapy if you will. I feel that "Special Unit" does the same for those of us who are--oh my, what is the politically correct term-of-the-day...handicapped...special... naughhh! "Ree-ree-ree-ree-tard-ded" lol

How on earth the first commenter could have "seen it coming" is beyond me. I dare any of you to watch this pilot and tell me you've ever seen anything like this on television before. If it is like some other show I'm not aware of, I'd love to know. Ahhh...that show must've aired that day I was under a rock. lol

Do yourself a favor...watch it and make you're own judgment.

keep the flow...tst4titus
