Entering into its second week of existence with over 1.5 million subscribers, millennial-focussed short-form premium mobile TV streaming service Quibi has placed an order for Doomlands, the working title of a new adult series from Josh O’Keefe and Look Mom! Productions.

Look Mom! Productions specialises in original animated programming for teens and adults and in the animated series, the infamous Danny Doom and aspiring bartender Lhandi sling beers across a hellish wasteland in their mobile subterranean pub: The Oasis. In order to survive, all the crew needs to do is not kill each other.

Paying homage to his Australian upbringing and love for Ozploitation film, series creator Josh O'Keefe began the project through a successful Kickstarter campaign. The series was then picked up by Look Mom! Productions, a Blue Ant Studios company, and developed with Joshua Bowen, Doomlands executive producer and creative director of Look Mom! Productions.

“When I was first introduced to Josh O’Keefe’s concept for Doomlands, I immediately loved the idea of a motley crew of characters roaming around a wasteland in a subterranean vehicle that doubles as a bar. The only thing I was disappointed in is the fact that there isn't a bar that exists like this in real life,” said Josh Bowen, “We couldn’t have found better partners in Quibi and can’t wait for The Oasis to roll onto screens across Canada and the US.”
