McGarnigale is the main character of a television series that solves crimes in his spare time. The show is a parody of the 'hard-boiled cop' stereotype of action movies/action television.

History

In the TV show almost every line includes "McGarnigale" somewhere. At one point in the film, he has to get a boy named Billy to explain in full honesty about what he saw out there (presumably in regards to a crime scene) for McGarnigale, but then Billy (presumably before the case) was killed by being slit from ear to ear.[1]

A stand for the TV show was seen in the Museum of TV and Television.[2]

Behind the Laughter

McGarnigale is similar in appearance, voice and behavior to Clint Eastwood's character of Harry Callahan from the Dirty Harry films.
