Product Description
Locked, cocked and ready to rock, your favorite deputies are back for another season of Reno 911! Armed with the arrival of two new officers (the gun-loving Deputy Frank Rizzo and the cantankerous Sergeant Jack Declan), a bevy of guest stars (Craig Robinson, Patton Oswalt, George Lopez, Nick Swardson) and some usual suspects (Terry the roller-skating prostitute and Big Mike), the sixth season delivers everything you're come to know and love from the deputies of the Reno Sheriff's Department... namely, questionable workplace attire, botched assignments, and egregious displays of incompetence.

The State. Ian Roberts, as former Chicago cop Jack Declan, earned his stripes as a member of the
Upright Citizens Brigade. Both characters are considerably more hardcore than their predecessors. Rizzo makes Denzel Washington from
Training Day look like Sgt. Joe Friday. In one episode he relentlessly harasses the soccer coach who won't play his son. In another, he compels his new partner Dep. Jones (Cedric Yarbrough) to perform illicit and unprintable acts while undercover.
To its credit, Reno 911! did not mellow over its six-season run. It continued to brazenly cross the PC line with impunity, as witness the department's senior abuse PSAs and an encounter with an unrepentant teacher who has been having sex with one of her teenage students. The series enlisted some notable accomplices this season, including Rainn Wilson as a cunning serial killer with escalating demands (like watching Cold Mo
