I agree with everything you have said! Best cast out of all the flicks and Bobcat totally steals the show. It's my favorite of all the flicks.

cabbageboy316,i wondered why those characters you mentioned,leslie barbara,feckler,e.t.c,werent in many more of the sequels,and some werent in any of the sequels.I dont know if it's because the writers didnt know what to do with those characters anymore,or if the actors who played them didnt want to return.
Also,Kim Catrall is another one who didnt return after the first film.That would have been because she moved on to do other things,but i wonder if it's also because they couldnt use her character for the sequels too ?.

The first movie in most franchises can nver be topped,mostly because we never knew what to expect the first time.With that said,I'd have to agree the first Police Academy was the best,and the following 3 sequels,I thought were good for being your usual run-of-the mill sequels.

I agree! I can go back to this movie over and over and still get laughs even now. Bobcat really comes forth as one of the main comedy sources here, but there's so much more. Hell, it even was a bit of a throwback to the first movie with the semi-nudity (Leslie Easterbrook in the pool). I love this movie.

It's the third best. Obviously the original is the best one. No contest about it. Part 2 is second best. Then part 4. Being back Harris was great. He should have been back for part 2. The mix of characters in this one was perfect. I'm glad they kept Zed and Schwechuck around.

Yes! This was the first Police Academy movie I saw as a kid and made me fall in love with the series. It is the peak of the franchise I think. The first one is good too but Citizens On Patrol was just a great concept, well executed.

This is probably my personal favorite, but the first is also an amazingly good '80s slobs vs. snobs comedy, in the class of Caddyshack, The Blues Brothers, and Airplane!.

It's one of my favorite of the sequels, but
Police Academy
is the best, the solid "R" provided for raunchier humor.

I never thought about the aspect that some point out here about how this one has the best set of characters. I must say, yeah, I agree.
I still prefer the first three, but this one is quite underrated imo.
