Reno 911! Reviews - Season 1, Episode 4 (104)

ElDorado Hotel Reno

Illegal Fireworks Bust in the Biggest Little City

I noticed that in this episode they have shot quite a few more clips of Downtown Reno.  In between scenes there are some shots of Garcia and Dangle cruising North on Highway 395, just before the Oddie Blvd. exit.  They make a reference to Interstate 80, and there are also some shots of an unidentified Reno Sports Book - It looks like Comedy Central has done their homeowork for Reno 911!.

We see a little bit more of Deputy Raineesha Williams in this episode. She's barely in the Episode 1 or Episode 2.  Raineesha goes on an illegal fireworks tip with Jones and ends up spraying the hillbilly perpetrator in the face with her can of mace.  Man she has a short temper!

Weigel and Clementine Johnson go on a prostitution sting on, guess where?  That's right, they are standing on 4th Street (probably just down the road from the Sands) looking to turn tricks.  If you have never traveled to Reno, then you should know that aside from a lot of Hotels and Casinos, there's also a bit of shady activity going down on 4th Street - just east of Virginia Street. Weigel is in a ridiculous bunny costume with her underwear sticking out everywhere.

The funniest part of this episode is when Jones and Garcia stop two guys who are just walking down the street.  They make them lie face down on the concrete and yell and scream at them about two white guys in khaki pants wanted on an A.P.B.  It turns out the two guys are Jehovah's witnesses.  After they let the two guys go, Garcia says, "A.P.B my ass.  God I love that!"

Dangle picks up a guy who is looking for a lost dog.  This whole thing turns into a gay encounter.  I have noticed that the Jim Dangle character is becoming increasingly gay, as if the tight shorts weren't enough.  The two are driving around looking for the dog and sipping wine together while holding hands and patting each other on the leg - pretty gay and pretty funny.  Oh yeah, just when you think that they are going to book a room at the Peppermill, Dangle ends up getting his wallet stolen and maced in the process, by the gay guy nonetheless. No high speed chases down the Reno Strip this time - Lt. Jim Dangle can do nothing but cry.

Also in Reno 911, Episode 4, Jones and Garcia bust a streaker.  "We're gonna need backup, we got a naked white man!"  The naked hillbilly running around is the same guy that they use in the beginning of Reno 911! Season 2 shows.  Very skinny, very white trash, and very naked. I'm noticing a trend of naked white trash getting busted by the Reno's Sheriff's Department.

The Reno Sheriff's Department finally ends up catching the guy selling illegal fireworks.  They confiscate all of the fireworks and have a little bottle rocket war in the desert (Washoe Canyon as they call it).  As you can imagine, it's not long before the firework truck goes up in flames.  Another job well done by Reno's finest.
