I showed Airplane to my teen nephews last year and fortunately they loved it.

I saw AIRPLANE in the theatre, of course, but I mainly remember it in heavy rotation on HBO -- in the early days of HBO, when they showed the same movies over and over again for months at a time.

Surely, we quoted it more than Monty Python....

There's a U.K. tv cop show called A Touch Of Cloth that is
very much in the style of humopour of Airplane/Naked Gun.
It's by Charlie Brooker, the guy behind Black Mirror.
