A half hour comedy fantasy pilot that’s only slighty better than it sounds or should I say smells…
In a world divided into Monkdoms, Theocracy reigns!
One billion years ago, Billania, the land of all the Bills, was ripped apart from the rest of the world. It would become known as the great movement. Without their almighty gods - whom amongst themselves created such things as free will, bugs, and paternity leave - the remaining people of this world were set free.
Ah… but short lived is freedom to those who forget how awesome it is. Monkdoms led by the clergy of the Bills grew in the Bill’s place. Using whatever natural resources they had in their respective realms the Monks subjugated their followers - animals, humans, and hybrids - all thanks to the recent invention of capitalism through the means of fast food - pretty lucky there.
As the Acorn Monks are on the verge of consolidating power, one Bill returns.
“My name is Bill and I am God…
or one of them I guess.”

God - or at least one of them… Billius was sent back from Heaven, or Billania as the Monaci Ghiande (Acorn Monks [are you still with me?] call it.)
No one has any clue why he’s here - especially Billius - but he instinctively lusts for the gross, stinky, leftovers of society leading him inevitably to the local fast food chain, Sammy’s Sandwiches. Their famous sandwich inludes fish, goat cheese, and of course the habit-forming purple acorn.
Equipped with an overzealous nose and swole AF legs, Billius searches for answers and whatever will fill the hole is his tummy.
“When I was a young boy, Brother White used to say these words of inspiration to me - words I never forgot…
‘Theo, I do not love you. I do not want you around. In fact, the only reason you are around is because my sister went off and got herself burnt at the stake by atheists on a non-religious holiday.’”

A Monaci Ghiande or Acorn Monk
Although technically still a Monaciello or Monkling Theodore is on a very secret outreach mission inside the great Oakwood - hopefully his last. For after this mission he hopes to finally prove his worth to the only Monk that has ever mattered in his eyes - the High Pulpit himself: Brother White aka his uncle.
Theodore encounters one final obstacle on his mission where along with his best friend, Cheeba Nuttingham, encounters a mysterious “nosed” individual in the great Oak Forest where trees are known to exceed five hundred feet tall!

A Doe with a predilection for acorn
Naturally an outsider, she would never admit to an addiction to Purple A, but she would do anything to get it - even lie to a Bill.
