I Want My Unicorn T V

Well now isn’t this amazing news to come back to? Emily Andras of “Lost Girl” and “Wynonna Earp” fame and adoration has inked a new deal for a new show with Syfy. And it’s not just any show. It’s a super-duper mega about, and I quote form The Hollywood Reporter:

“Axeholes follows a mismatched bunch of comic convention attendees who inadvertently get transported into the real-life world of their favorite fantasy TV series, Blue Bar’Bara. In the worst role-playing game ever, the unequipped party must learn to navigate a dangerous land of profanity-spewing battle axes, sociopathic fairies, disturbingly sensual dragons and a chainmail-bikini-wearing shield maiden as they struggle to find a way back home.”
All of this is amazing and I want to watch this immediately if not sooner. Emily said the series is a “an adoring, tongue-in-cheek love letter to fandom in general, and fierce barbarian princesses in particular.” She also said she was thrilled to be working with Syfy for being “endlessly supportive of the hilarious, moving, action-packed feminist genre shows.”

As if that wasn’t enough, Andras has already lured “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” star and bisexual shero Stephanie Beatriz onto the project to play a, and again I quote, “barbarian shield maiden.”



So buckle up lil unicorns and unicorn lovers, we’ve got some watching to do.

I can't wait to see what women will be cast along with Stephanie Beatriz and whether she will have a female love interest or interests in the series. The show 'Axeholes' sounds like it could be awesome! Looking forward to seeing it. I wonder if NetFlix will pick it up at some point?

If you find this concept interesting then you might want to check out some web series that already exist, using similar if not the same premise.

AFK - An Australian webseries in which video game players are trapped in the game.

JourneyQuest - A fantasy comedy series that features, among other things, an expletive-spouting sword, Orcs who are comedy gold, and "Bardic Immunity!"

The Gamers: The Series - What would role playing game characters do if they were trapped in the real world?

All of these are freely available for viewing, on Youtube, and on a website called The Fantasy Network.
