Bandwagon Blues - a new series this fall.

Bandwagon Blues

A new police series this fall on LGPN.

Three young detectives team up to put the bad guys on ice in Pitt City. Can they make the big score before time runs out?

Starring:

Sid "The Kid" Crosby - They used to call him "The Next One", but a blow to the head during an outdoor chase gone bad has left him struggling to get back to his previous heights. The smartest guy on the squad, makes connections that nobody else can.

Max "Superstar" Talbot - Always the flashy dresser. Smooth, stylish...but flighty. One of Sid's best friends, but Commissioner Shero suspects that Max could actually be playing for the bad guys. Max just smiles and says..."shhhhhhh".

"The Real Deal" James Neal - A straight shooter. The youngest member of the team, transferred from Dallas after the loss of Sid and Max's old partner Alex "Gogo" Lagoski. Still learning to make it on his own, but you won't find a better wingman.

Featuring:

Brooks "Candyman" Orpik - SWAT team member and sharpshooter. Can hit anything that moves, and usually does.

Eugene Malkinelli a.k.a. "Evgeni Malkin" - Italian ladies man, can "shoot and score" almost at will. Currently undercover on the Russian side of town. Max always says that "Geno" has the worst Russian accent he's ever heard.

Lt. Dan Bylsma - Promoted after Mike Therrien was "kicked upstairs", DB has led the squad to some of their greatest triumphs. Does he still have it, or did he ever? Promises to get a confession out of anyone using his personal system, or as he always says, "Let's grind these ******** down".

Commissioner Ray Shero - Has led Pitt City's police force for years. Always keeps his moves close to the (bulletproof) vest, but some would call him too defensive.
Spoiler:
Where am I going with all of this? No idea, but the picture was begging for more than a caption. Anybody want to write some episodes or summaries? Or make up your own Penguins TV show? It sure beats talking hockey right now.

Eddie Johnston - Once a fixture of the department, he was shipped on to Hartford for his most important undercover assignment. He's since returned and can often be seen having a cup of coffee with the guys in the break room.

Marc Andre Fleury - Head of the Narcotics Division. He has often been accused of letting everything through, but has never been relieved of duties for much longer than a two week paid vacation.

Tyler Kennedy - The admissions board for the police academy took one look at his shooting scores and decided to offer him a position there. The young cadets benefit from knowing what it's like to take a bullet in the kevlar chest protector: again and again and again.

Pilot

The 'The Kid' is convinced Paul 'Paulie Nails' Holmgren, sinister Snyder Crime family underboss whacked his own nephew, Chris Pronger (not the 'The Kid's' nephew but Paulie Nails's) so Paulie can bring in Slim Shady Weber to shut down Chris Kunitz in the playoff's. The 'The Kid' may be the smartest guy on the squad but this time he's made one dumb *** conclusion.

Paul "Steigy" Steigerwald - The bumbling dispatcher known for cracking groan inducing "jokes" to the rest of the precinct. He's constantly on thin ice with the Lt. for inexplicably missing calls and getting overly frustrated during difficult times.

Bob "bibs" Errey - Quirky, possibly demented, but as brilliant a forensic analyst as you'll find on the force. Has an innate ability to reconstruct events down to the smallest details using gadgets and his impeccable hindsight. Many many hours alone in the crime lab have caused him to create his own dialect, referring to regular items by bizarre nicknames such as "Pickle Stabber".
