Safety First

2013–2014 · 2 seasons

A gentle, deadpan mockumentary that finds quiet joy in the clumsy camaraderie of four well-meaning but hopeless security guards.

Tagline: Discipline, dedication and friendship.
Overview: After he’s laid off, Dirk Porrez is more determined than ever to get back to work. He establishes ‘Safety First,’ a private security firm that provides security services at all kinds of events. We follow the adventures of Dirk, Smos, Ingrid and Luc, four former colleagues who formed the company together. Although they’re good at maintaining their friendship, they excel at utter incompetence.
How it feels: Absurd, satirical, light and warm. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Friendship, work, ambition, loyalty
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
