SYNOPSIS:

Kool-Aid Man's story begins with orgins as a quencher of the most basic of thirsts, as a pitcher on a kitchen counter, but he needs to be more. Now he is faced with an onslaught of super villans that push his evolving superpowers to grow stronger, one party at a time. In this pilot episode Kool-Aid Man fights off an evil death-cult leader that opposes everything he stands for. His love interest, the girl that always wears blue, throws bad parties in hopes that they will meet, but she gets tangled in the false promises of the cult and must be saved from danger, and her own codependency. Kool-Aid Man brings people together in order to win, with a wide range of dynamic neighborhood characters helping out. I wrote a TV pilot script establishing Kool-Aid Man as a sort of modern day hero, he's cool, magical, but he mostly hangs out and spreads joy with his classic beverage. His natural enemies are the Thirsties that appear to him when people are on the verge of dehydration. Like in Batman, there is also room for a cast of evil villans to be developed. In this story, a death-cult leader is his nemesis, and he must defeat him by neutralizing his growing congregation. Lenora, the girl always in blue, is his love interest. She throws bad parties in hope that he will crash it, but gets drawn into the power structure of the cult, and needs to be rescued, not only from danger, but also her codependency. Like the Simpsons in Springfield, Kool-Aid Man is part of a community of endless wild characters doing their thing. I wrote several drafts, and I think I came up with a funny spoof that entertains on many levels for a TV audience. *script available by request
