Overview
"METEORITE GEM SHOW is a live-action and animated show that follows the life of Zula, an 8-year-old girl who has a knack for gems, crystals, and all things mystical. She is a super-nerd and does not engage with the likes of other puberty-stricken 8-year-olds. While other girls are concerned with makeup and viral dances, Zula is fascinated with crystals, the stars, and flowers or has her head engulfed in a YA book. Zula has a special ability. She draws unique portraits. They come to life and take her into their world to help restore peace. In the pilot, she meets a version of herself from a different dimension, and she leads her to planet Tanikitana, a 5D world facing a meteor attack by a 3D world, on a different dimensional plane. Each episode, Zula creates new portraits, often other dimensions versions of her loved one, and travels to their planet to help them restore peace. VIRGINS follows four high school virgins who form an unlikely bond as they navigate a world where teenagers fall under the pressure of a racy society. The night of their homecoming, someone spikes the punch with MDMA, molly. This sends everyone into a sex craze, and people start fornicating on school grounds. The following school day, four girls from different circles, all Virgins, are blamed for the unsettling incident. They are sentenced to detention. Mona, the oversexualized IT GIRL and class President, looses her Presidential role, Sameera, the closeted basketball star (and future doctor?), gets kicked off the team, Krystal, the hopeless romantic, genius gamer girl, looses her spot as first chair, and Addison, the British, Christian junkie, well she gets detention on her first day at school in America. As a result they team up to figure out who caused this monstrosity, coming together to form a virgin club and advocate for kids being kids." -- Abstract
