Spoilers for season 1 and Hot Fuzz
I was rewatching the show (literally watching episode 3/4 right now as I write this), the plot is literally the same as Hot Fuzz. Newcomer arrives in a small town nobody as ever heard of and is seemingly perfect upon first glance, finds things a little off, discovers there is something a foot in the town with a group of villains plotting to change everything for the greater good, then the newcomer recruits some locals, including high schoolers, to take down the villains in a final action set piece and one of the villains is defeated via car and animal, but Icicle got the lamer defeat since no swan. Also the GREAT BIG BUSHY BEARDS with Nick's predacessor and Sir Justin. These are just some of the similarities I spotted while watching, and it is hilarious to me.
