Trivia
The collapse of her first marriage contributed to Sharon Stone's decision to work on this movie. Of wanting to have some fun after a difficult period in her life, she said that "hanging out with a gang of comedians, it was the best therapy."

Goofs
(at around 43 mins) When Harris and Proctor enter The Blue Oyster, Proctor acts like he is unfamiliar with the venue. This is despite the fact that in Police Academy 2: Their First Assignment (1985), Proctor recited the bar's street address from memory, while in Police Academy 3: Back in Training (1986), a naked Proctor stumbled into the same building while trying to hide.

Quotes
Captain Harris: Don't touch those! Don't you ever touch my balls without asking!

Alternate versions
Although the cinema version was intact the UK video version was cut by 8 secs to remove shots of Mahoney displaying a tube of Super Glue before administering it to Harris's megaphone. The cuts were restored in the upgraded 12 certificate DVD.

Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol (1987)

I certainly laughed a bit more than I did with the previous sequels. Once again it's all a bit overcrowded, with characters from the previous 3 outings now being mixed together. Bailey is a welcome return as the antagonist, but he is joined by the sidekick of the last two films' villain. This kind of works, as we get the best of both worlds. On top of this we are also given new characters, everyday citizens wanting to help out. This looks interesting at first, with David Spade and a skateboarding buddy forced into the program, but they are soon lost in the background. An entertaining airborne finale is rather impressive as well. So, with Bailey back, and this being Guttenberg's last, this may be a good stopping point for most viewers that made it this far.
