Three spoiled alien teens embark on a mandatory spring break trip to the worst planet in the galaxy – Earth. They arrive ready to mock humanity, but end up learning that maybe imperfection is what makes a planet worth saving.

 

In the hyper-optimized, sterile utopias of their respective alien home worlds, ZYLO VARNAX (an arrogant Trelonion academic prodigy), GLORPAXA “GLORP” DRINTZ (a clout-chasing Zelvonian social media obsessive), and B3N-D0X “BEN” (an emo AI/Human Hybrid from Yvrax Prime with a penchant for bleak poetry and Earth snacks) are suffering from acute cases of teenage ennui and parental pressure. Their solution? A mandatory “Interstellar Cultural Outreach” field trip assigned by their comically out-of-touch AI PRINCIPAL: observation of the galaxy’s most notoriously chaotic, under-performing C-minus planet – Earth. Their mission is facilitated by the cynical PROFESSOR GRAGNOR, who hacks their falsified student records into Northwood High in a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia, under the guise of being exchange students from the hilariously mischaracterized microstate of Liechtenstein.

Adapted from Mark McLaughlin’s feature screenplay SWAT: Fear Sweat & Bullets, the “METRO” Pilot Episode is a high-octane police procedural that follows Officer Kim Baxter, a fierce and determined LAPD officer battling to prove her worth in both the crime-ridden streets of Los Angeles and the male-dominated world of law enforcement. As Kim takes on life-threatening situations, she must also confront the deeply ingrained sexism of her colleagues and superiors, all while grappling with failed relationships and her own emotional scars from a troubled past in the foster care system. Balancing intense action with personal drama, METRO dives deep into Kim’s fight for respect, survival, and justice, as she struggles to become LAPD’s first woman in SWAT.
