30% of children now dream of becoming YouTubers or vloggers - making it their #1 career aspiration. 

Yet behind every perfectly filtered post lies a precarious world where careers can implode with a single misstep.

But who picks up the pieces when influencers crash and burn? 

THE WORLD OF OUR SERIES

Set in the ambition capital of New York City, The Wild Wild Web follows a "case of the week" format similar to Scandal or Nip/Tuck, with the moral complexity of The Good Place and the sharp comedic pacing of Broad City.

Each episode is inspired by a real-life influencer scandal, forcing our PR team to invent creative (and occasionally questionable) solutions while navigating their own messy lives.

OUR PILOT: BASED ON A TRUE STORY

Your funding directly supports production of our pilot episode: A 13-year-old girl fakes her own death for social media fame, and our PR team must navigate the moral complexity of restoring her image.

Inspired by actual events, this premiere episode sets the tone for a series that tackles real scandals with satirical precision.

MEET THE PR FIXERS

Ev

PR prodigy freshly fired from NYC's top agency. Brilliant but impulsive, she's determined to be the Olivia Pope for influencers, at any cost. 

Cai

Wannabe lawyer who cannot pass the bar. He's the group's ethical compass, bringing a strong moral clarity that often clashes with Ev's stubborn ambition.

Belle

Trust-fund socialite with connections in every corner of New York. Her glamorous façade hides her own insecurities.

🎬 DIRECTOR'S NOTE

The Wild Wild Web is NOT looking to shock or amuse with 'crazy influencer lives.' It's a scripted historical record of the world we live in today. - Janice Nyam, Director

The Wild Wild Web isn't just another show about self-absorbed influencers—it's a nuanced exploration of redemption in an unforgiving digital landscape, the blurred lines between online personas and real identities, parasocial relationships that define modern fame, and the psychological toll of living life online. 

Through our diverse cast and women-led creative team, we're building a show that captures this pivotal cultural moment with authenticity, humor, and heart.
