Our robot overlords

Status:

Genre: Dark comedy

Sub Genre: Sitcom

A mock sitcom where in the not too distant future robots have taken over, and humans are all slaves to them now. It plays like an old cheesy sitcom but with incredibly dark subject matter. The robots are especially a comedy point, as they’re like robots we imagined in the 50’s (janky with typical robot voices), and the humans, including a scientist who just woke up from a comma into this world, try to take humanity back, and hilarity always ensues.

The main message of the series is “humanity is important, but we’re all a bit like robots,” although this is always conveyed in a sitcom-like way, borrowing lots of tropes, not unlike That’s My Bush.
