I watched it. On NBC - "Father of the Pride".

I don't think I'll look at catnip the same ever agian...



It's a good/funny/clean show. They clap twice and 2 segways appear out of left field. Good stuff for Segway!

Re: segway on crank yankers

I don't remember what show I was watching but I definitely jumped up and got all excited when I saw it. It was also in some recent movie. And yeah, I saw them in the Father of the Pride series. It's really cool to see something that we've all been excited about from the get-go suddenly get huge like this.

I know my non-FIRST friends have even started recognizing them. It's like a whole new scientific revolution

Re: segway on crank yankers

I'll give 'Father of the Pride' about a few more episodes before it's pulled. The combination low raitings (for a comedy NBC show), high price per show (over $2.2 million, or the price of two episodes of 'Family Guy'), and an overall lack of quality (the show has not faired well with reviewers).

Anyway, I think all exposure for the Segway will be great, even if it isn't in the best light. Anyone think we might see Segways on Queer Eye?
