CHiPs

La serie racconta le avventure di due agenti della California Highway Patrol di pattuglia sulle immense Freeway di Los Angeles a bordo delle loro motociclette. Frequenti erano gli inseguimenti e gli incidenti tra più veicoli causati da banditi in fuga. I due protagonisti sono il "macho" Francis "Frank" Llewellyn "Ponch" Poncherello e il più "equilibrato" agente Jonathan "Jon" Andrew Baker, coordinati dal sergente Joseph Getraer, il comandante burbero del duo.
