Okay so this is a quick follow on from my previous thread. I have written a synopsis for my zombie sitcom idea. Let me know what you think???
At Home With The Brain Dead! (Working Title)
This sitcom surrounds the lives of a working class family of zombies.
Zombies have been around for a few years ever since a nuclear power plant in London blew up and turned a lot of its workers into braindead, flesh eating maniacs.
At first, society did not accept these bloodthirsty undeads but soon realised there was too many to kill, so instead decided to live and let eat and work with the zombies and accept them into society.
After only a few months of educating the zombies, society soon realised that these people were just like humans, only with a taste for human flesh rather than animals or poultry. There is even a string of restaurants especially for zombies that only sell human meat.
However, a lot of zombies are also humanitarian, which basically means they don't eat human meat as they believe it's wrong to kill humans for just their sick nourishment needs.
Zombies started to fit in and even started families with other zombies. At first they did keep to themselves and only worked in industrial jobs, like building sites or shopping centres as trolley pushers, where not much thought was required.
As time went by, zombies started to completely immerse themselves into society, and even some humans had relationships with zombies. Mixed races of humans and zombies were becoming more and more, however, the zombie gene pool was much stronger than the human genetic makeup so children would look more zombie-like.
Zombies even started to play sports, and some became professional. The first English soccer team to field a bunch of professional zombie players, was Tottenham Hotspur, thus improving their premier league status for the first time in years!
The family depicted in this sitcom are known as 'The Rabies'.
Jack Rabie is the father of the family. He is 45 years dead, and works as a manager for a local Life Insurance company. Jack is only half zombie as his father was human.
Wendy Rabie is Jack's wife and mother of the family. She is actually human and works as a nurse for a local hospital. They met 20 years ago at a mixed night club for zombies and humans. At first, Wendy's father had forbidden her to date Jack, as he was a zombie and all. Plus, Wendy's father was a long standing member of the British National Party, who didn't take kindly to foreign blood.
Harry Rabie is the son of the family. He is 13 years dead and is a typical zombie teenager. He likes to play video games, play sports and watch movies. Harry is going through his adolescent years and sometimes gets into trouble at school for biting the other children.
Felicity Rabie is the oldest of the children. She is 15 years dead and is currently studying for her GCSE's. Felicity is a vegetarian and wants to become a vet when she finishes school. Felicity and her younger brother are always fighting.
