Atlantis Attacks
An aspirational comedy about grabbing the last brass ring before it's gone forever. A failed writer turning 50 is desperate for one more opportunity - so he's rebooting a sci-fi TV series from 1979 that his father wrote. Documenting it for their YouTube channel are his college-age daughter and her non-binary lover. Arrested Development meets Galaxy Quest.

Hayden Black is a true pioneer in the world of web content. He's the award-winning star/writer/producer behind Goodnight Burbank, the first-ever scripted half-hour comedy series made for Hulu and the first-ever scripted half-hour comedy series to go from the web to TV when Mark Cuban licensed it for his cable channel HDNet. Hayden also contributed to "Behind The Sofa; Celebrity Memories of Dr. Who", named by Amazon UK one of its "Ten Best Books of 2013." And he was a regular on-air contributor for BBC America's TV series "The Brit List". The press has dubbed him a "web sensation" (LA Times), "ridiculously funny" (Time Out) and "one of Internet comedy's brightest stars" (The Guardian).
