This is gonna be the hottest new series on TV, and we’ve got it! It’s called Segway Squad, about an elite force that fights crime using those Segway personal transporters. Is that cool, or what?
The squad is led by Pop, a hardened veteran who’s been riding Segways since the old days of 2001. He’s in charge of a bunch of wisecracking young hotshots. When a crime is in progress they streak there at the lightning speed of 10 miles per hour, and we zoom along with them, bumping over curbs and scattering pedestrians.
Their Segways are customized - bullet-proof handlebars, built-in flame-throwers, so the marketing toy tie-ins are enormous.
In the pilot episode, they race after a gang of bank robbers who ride tractors; meanwhile, Pop resists having a brassy young blonde chick join the squad, but it turns out…
