Super Troopers

Episode 116: Super Troopers (2001)

Theme: Rhyming Titles Month
Hosts: Oz & Curtis

This week, Oz and Curtis throw on their mirrored shades and crank the liter-of-cola jokes to full volume with Super Troopers — the Broken Lizard classic that blends highway patrol chaos, budget-cut desperation, cat-name interrogations, and maple-syrup athleticism into one meow-gnificent cult comedy. It’s the rare movie where the plot is optional and the hijinks are mandatory.

The Hosts break down:

• The Vermont State Troopers: part law enforcement, part improv troupe, 100% unfit for duty.
• Rod Farva — the human equivalent of a malfunctioning air horn — and the chaotic brilliance he brings to every scene.
• Foster and Ursula’s forbidden flirtation, complete with Winnebago shenanigans and the least subtle stakeout in history.
• A turf war with the Spurberry PD that escalates from petty pranks to full-blown drug-ring takedowns.
• Iconic bits: syrup chugging, “say it meow,” Johnny Chimpo, and the rare filmic use of powdered-sugar delousing.

Final Verdict:

Oz — 76 Tickle Feathers
Curtis — 10 Meows

Next week: Rhyming Titles Month continues with Hot Shots! — Charlie Sheen, Lloyd Bridges, spoof-movie glory, and a time when parody films were actually funny.
