, premiered on KoldCast TV today, after the trailer had been garnering attention in web television circles.

Safety Geeks tracks an elite force of safety experts; the P.O.S.H. (Professional Occupational Safety Hazard) team as they bumble their way through a series of gruesome accident investigations in the vain attempt to make the world safer.

“What’s the P.O.S.H. team like?,” poses Konkle, “Imagine Frank Drebin (Naked Gun) and Inspector Clouseau (Pink Panther Films) working together to solve a crime. Despite their well-intentioned efforts, and the resulting trauma that results, they always inadvertently solve the crime. That’s the P.O.S.H. team.”

According to press materials out on the show, the series features more than 1,000 visual effect shots, which apparently sets the record for web series, and is even more than the first three Star Wars movies combined. We haven’t independently verified this, but we trust there are some well intentioned Star Wars fans out there that would run an audit on this claim.

The series stars Beeler and Konkle along with Brittney Powell, Mary Cseh, Benton Jennings, Ransford Doherty and Mark Teich. Ten episodes of season 1 will be released every other Monday, with the first two already out today.
