Hello! I’m Daljit and with the help of my brother from another mother, Rafael, we’re writing and producing a new TV series. Did I say TV series? It will probably be a YouTube series, or if we’re lucky we’ll get picked up by NetFlix. Just as how KickStarter and the other crowdfunding sites won’t touch our project, I’m pretty sure the major networks and cable channels won’t want to carry the finished product. Why is that, you ask? Let me tell you a little about what we aim to do.
We’re creating a show which follows Bill O’Reilly and Bill Cosby on a cross country book tour to promote their new book, Bills… They Made Us Pay for What We Did. In the alternate reality in which our show takes place, these two Bills have gotten together to try to defend themselves from the numerous allegations of sexual harassment and sexual misconduct and have come up with the idea of writing this book as a means to do so. Unfortunately, since they’re horrible people who’ve done terrible things, they aren’t quite successful. Their book, which is clearly nonsense, generates a lot of pre-release negativity, so they decide to go on a book tour to several major cities to combat that negativity and get their story out there.
Alas, they learn nothing. No lessons, no changing for the better, no moral epiphanies. Instead, they bungle the opportunities to come clean and improve, all the while managing to alienate people further with their tone deaf and clueless defense of their crimes. Their attitudes, outlook, and behavior are best described as something between the main cast of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and the Bluth family from Arrested Development (minus Michael and George Michael of course).
Our initial pitch sees them touring 5 cities, one in each episode. They are:
- Seattle
- Los Angeles
- Austin
- Chicago
- New York
Unfortunately, the Bills have fallen on hard times. They don’t quite have the financial resources they once did after having to pay out on so many civil suits, which is one of the reasons for writing this book. The Bills hope to restore their fortunes. As a result of their downgraded economic status, they couldn’t quite afford airline tickets for their 5 city tour. Instead, they’ll be travelling via an old VW Camper van that one of the Bills acquired for… purposes best left unsaid.
If we exceed our initial funding target by enough, we can add more episodes. If we raise enough funds to produce another 5 episodes on top of our first 5, instead of just adding them onto Season 1, we’ll give them their own arc and create a second season! (Why 5 episodes per season? Apparently, that’s what all the cool British kids do.). We’re kicking around several ideas for a potential Season 2, one of which is the Bills starting a weekly live streaming show called Does No Really Mean No? which would be a call in show that would serve as follow up to their book. If the excess funding is enough for 4 or less episodes, we’ll add more cities and more hijinks to the book tour. We’ll run backer polls to determine which additional cities our despicable deviants will visit, so you can help to shape the show! If we get even more funding than that, we’ll have enough to add a third regular cast member… Bill Clinton! What role will he play? Help us reach our stretch goals and find out!
