The Story of Funky Cops

The show follows two main police officers. Their names are Ace Anderson and Dick Kowalski. In the 4Kids version, Dick is called Jack Kowalski. These two cops are a bit silly but always get the job done.

They love looking cool and dancing to disco music. Even with all their dancing, they always solve the cases. They get help from their police chief, Captain Dobbs. There's also a smart reporter named Miss Lee. Another disco fan, Boogaloo, helps them too. In the second season, a new officer joins them. Her name is Flora "Fly" Ibanez.
