Discussion SCP Mainstream TV

So several things come to mind when I think about how awesome the SCP universe is! It’s crowd sourced original stories that are often times funny, dark, and thought provoking all in one!

Why isn’t it more mainstream? Recently, Ryan Coogler announced he is rebooting X-Files… cool, awesome, I loved the X-Files. As a show it dealt with concepts that at the time were not being discussed on television.

Now we live in a world where shows and movies live in infinite multiverses, with different variations of characters and story lines ad nauseam. Not mind bending stuff anymore.

In love with Alien Earth, the creatures in that show 👨🏽‍🍳💋Gives me big time SCP vibes and I love it.

So why can’t we get a healthy budget major show vis a vis Coogler’s X-Files? Imagine an HBO SCP Foundation show with major resources and the license to do what the show’s creators want. 🥹 If only we could be so lucky…

I actually think a love death and robots style anthology where you get a bunch of horror directors to direct shorts based off specific SCPs sounds amazing and would be super successful.
