Together they fight crimes in New York with all their best and dealing at the same time with their personal lives like their overbearing wives and officious boss, Captain Anderson. The partners were specially assigned to protect an important witness who will testify against crime lords and mafias, but their adventures turn into comedy with their errors and predicaments they got involved. The excitement is there as the audience never k
now what will happen next, seemed like they encounter more comedy than crime and making the viewers keep on laughing.

The memorable show's theme lyrics:

There's a holdup in the Bronx!
Brooklyn's broken out in fights!
There's a traffic jam in Harlem
That's backed up to Jackson Heights!
There's a scout troop short a child!
Krushchev's due at Idlewild!
Car 54, where are you?!

The successful comedy duo in Car 54, Where Are You completed 3 seasons with total of 60 episodes, aired from 1961 to 1963, now available on DVD.
