/sci/ - Science & Math

I had a couple of ideas, you could make a TV series about a bunch of companies participating in a space race, but the trick is, that they are all living around cape Canaveral because the industry is there. So the bosses are all hot tempered lunatics, the likable kind and the series follows the life of the workers and scientists there. Now the gig is that it's very comedic and stupid, I mean no poop jokes and b-roll laughter, but rather the insanity and scale, like situational stuff. Think Cave Johnson from Portal coping on Black Mesa (the objectively more better evil science complex), but then the technology and science is absolutely on point that there's layers of story happening. Like the neighborhood one upping, technological and evolution over seasons

I dunno if it should be real or cartoon, If it was cartoon they could use Kerbals because everything about them is likable, they'd wipe the floor with thrash like minions and you'd have a base audience already.
But real would also be kickass and not even that expensive. You could do a lot with models and greenscreens and even mush a warm fuzzy 60s filter allover it to hide the crimes. The series could catch up to 2020 over time tho...

It goes without saying, that nobody ever dies there and that safety talk is dialed down to 60s "when challenge pissing, wear a hardhat" levels.

The time would be perfect with all that commercial stuff happening right now and I could see a lot of places to ask for funding because raising public awareness and interest is basically a shared goal...

Any thoughts?
