Special Unit 2 was based on some Nick Pollotta books - tongue deeply in cheek variation of Men in Black

I'd not heard of Special Unit-2 until you mentioned it. We didn't get it over here. According to Wiki, it was a "short-lived, American sci-fi/comedy television series"

about a branch of the Chicago police "charged with the task to police the city's large population of mythological beings".

 Shadow Unit is probably more like Criminal Minds, but with science fiction elements.  It's not a comedy, although there can be comedic moments between the agents. Instead, there's an 'anomaly', which is some sort of yet-to-be-defined, mysterious infection or agent that turns humans into 'gammas' once it's manifested in the human host. Shadow Unit members are special FBI agents who specialise in solving crimes that seem unsolvable -- because they've been committed by these gammas, and the world doesn't realise they even exist.

That's the premise. 

Hmm. I see that Pauley Perrette was in season two of Special Unit-2. I wonder if Lovefilm has it to rent or if it's on You Tube. :)
