2008 · 1 season

A silly, affectionate sprint of tiny episodes about two friends camping out for a movie, played with deadpan devotion to a ridiculous quest.

Overview
We're just 11 days and 7 hours away from the world premiere of Future Space: The Final Chapter, the sci-fi event of the decade. Tickets are available on a first come, first serve basis and two best friends with a lot of time on their hands have decided to go the distance. Armed with one change of clothes and one simple mission, they march to the front spot on line and brace themselves for one of the toughest trials of their lives. Over the course of seven short episodes, we follow their progress as they fend off enemies, overcome hardships and discover an inner strength they never knew they had.
