Yay! Some of the episodes are on YouTube, and I'm sure Netflix has the DVDs. It's so, so good.

And since I just ended up searching it on YouTube, here are some clips to whet your whistle:

"Atomic Shakespeare" clip 1 and clip 2. The whole episode is just so fantastic and funny and wonderful; those are two of the nigh-innumerable high points. The visual gags are all over. (The episode is based on The Taming of the Shrew, which should give you a good idea of the plot.)

This is one of the famous chase scenes. It's a pretty good encapsulation of the madcap aspects of the show.

And here's an example of teh dramaz. I have to admit that I don't tend to think of Bruce Willis as an exceptional dramatic actor, but he sold this scene.

(And then here's Maddie's dream about what he tells her in that previous scene. You may be able to tell that this was an episode where they forgot they were doing a detective show...)
