After a satire of tough female role and blatant product placement in just five minutes, it's clear that Angie Tribeca doesn't follow normal procedural rule, or any coherent rule for that matter. However, it does follow in the footstep of Naked Gun, while this is nice since the slapstick comedy hasn't had any addition for a while, there are some lingering crude moments that might just be too unsavory for the comedy to properly work.
This is a psychical comedy in heart, mocking the cop shows in an unapologetic fashion. Honestly, it's rather expected that a parody of CSI and the likes would appear. Angie Tribeca has some good moments, it's nice to see this kind of brash humor once in a while. The nifty parts offer funny approach and commentary of the typical more serious shows, a few surprising guest stars like Lisa Kudrow or Alfred Molina is oddly appreciated.
The main problem is the jokes used are heavy-handed and repetitive. This might be fine if said jokes hit the mark, something like the bits with the dog might be fun to watch, but if it fails then audience is left with one or two long minutes of seeing the same joke ham-fisted over and over again. Most of the humor comes from physical, played in the exaggerated manner to draw any interest or attention, but also inconsistently thrown out there.
Angie Tribeca mainly has a few ideas of humor and shoots them wildly and eccentrically. When it hits, it could be highly entertaining, but if it doesn't audience is left with graceless drunken exhibition of slapstick, but the all-in attitude might just work in their favor.
