‘The 4th KINGDOM’
EPIC SCI-FI TV SERIES
300 years after our wise and powerful leaders turned their backs on science, and chose Global Nationalism over Global Warming, the Earth is left flooded.
Human Survivors now belong to one of three opposing Kingdoms competing relentlessly for dry land in a surreal new world of water – where anything that floats is a boat, anything the human body can digest is food, and any piece of recyclable trash is a priceless commodity worth killing for.
But what the Three Kingdoms don’t know, is that a 4th Kingdom exists – and the endgame they have planned for the other three makes the ORIGINAL FLOOD look like a mere welcome mat.
More details for the lavish, 40 million dollar, apocalyptic action-thriller, are being kept heavily under wraps, however Exec Producer Nick Mechanic promises a “high octane, ‘balls to the wall’ show set in a stunning new world unlike anything we’ve ever seen.” ‘Kingdom’ is slotted to shoot in the Bahamas. Chart is currently penning the series for ‘Game of Thrones’ Exec Producer Vince Gerardis, with Gerardis personally overseeing all financial and developmental aspects of the epic show.

Paris 1927. Beautiful, young, American writer, Fay White, is found raped and murdered in the most bizarre of circumstances. Unfortunately, it happened in the Arts District, a colorful, creative, but squalid and troubled area the Police regard as a No-Go-Zone – and nobody gives a damn.
Nobody except Colette Branton, an equally colorful and troubled Policewoman, tied to a mind-numbing desk job in a small unit in the sleazy part of town, and currently the only woman on male-dominated police force. Colette suspects Fay’s death is linked to a string of similarly bizarre murders inspired by her new novel, an innocuous tome of Fairy tales, entitled ‘THE BOOK OF MONSTERS’.
But how does Colette circumvent her resentful and suspicious male colleagues and find the killer when a woman on the force is not yet allowed to even pack a gun, let alone, arrest anyone ..?
