Classic as hell.

Classic in the non-Dud Police Academy movies, Classic in Spaceballs, Dud when people were trying to do his schtick in the jr high cafeteria before moving on to overquoting Princess Bride.

This is a no-brainer. 100% Classic!

― J-rock (Julien Sandiford), Friday, 28 March 2003 05:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Classic. Let's pick on the one guy who says dud.

Me and Mahonie, me and Mahonie...

Homer's impression of him is also classic

his signature looks a bit like a nutsack

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Friday, 28 March 2003 05:07 (twenty-three years ago)

The bit (in some PA movie) where he fooled the badasses into thinking he was some kind of berserk robot w/his incredibly realistic mechanical sounds was pretty classic.

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Friday, 28 March 2003 05:11 (twenty-three years ago)

okay, after seeing his nutsack signature i'm all turned around on this

― jess (dubplatestyle), Friday, 28 March 2003 05:13 (twenty-three years ago)

God it really does look like a SACK. Shouldn't he have guested on some records by now?

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Friday, 28 March 2003 05:29 (twenty-three years ago)

This whole thread made me laugh!!

I once watched all the Police Academy movies on a local cabal channel. The sum effect was bizarre.

― Samson, Friday, 28 March 2003 07:55 (twenty-three years ago)

I remember that robot bit! I loved it as a kid! Of course, I also loved the scene where the evil police dude is whirled straight into a horse's ass...

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Friday, 28 March 2003 08:43 (twenty-three years ago)

I wasn't so hot on that bit, I felt sorry for the horse.

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Friday, 28 March 2003 10:37 (twenty-three years ago)

a local cabal channel

sounds... odd.

― webber (webber), Friday, 28 March 2003 10:45 (twenty-three years ago)

I left that typo in for precisely that reason!

― Samson, Friday, 28 March 2003 10:50 (twenty-three years ago)

classic, but don't forget his performance in Spaceballs.

― Kate Silver (Kate Silver), Friday, 28 March 2003 16:42 (twenty-three years ago)

I bet he works at the Blue Oyster now.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Friday, 28 March 2003 16:43 (twenty-three years ago)

Shouldn't he have guested on some records by now?

I swear to God he's colaborated with Rahzel at some point on something, I know this can't just be a figment of my imagination.

And yes CLASSICK.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 28 March 2003 16:46 (twenty-three years ago)

Classic. His scene in Spaceballs is the reason I refer to weird technoey sound effects as "the bleeps, the sweeps and the creeps."

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Saturday, 29 March 2003 00:24 (twenty-three years ago)

oi jess, stay outta my booze

How did those two never star in an '80s buddy comedy?

Tried to do a black history month project on this guy in 3rd grade. Was VERY disappointed that the library did not have any books on him.

Too bad you didn't grow up in the Wikipedia age. You could have had access to a short biography, a link to his IMDB page, and a list of every time he was referenced on Family Guy.

eleven years pass...

So you remember MICHAEL WINSLOW as the guy from the Police Academy movies right?

Well, he was that for sure.
But he was also a whole lot more.

Just check him out here killing it with Led Zeppelin’s “Whole Lotta Love” on Norwegian TV.
