The pair had already been in contact with “a different network” that was also working on short-form episodes, and, as McDonnell explains, he’d always envisioned the show as more of a web series. “Just as Quibi was starting to buy, we were probably the only one in all of Hollywood who had already written what they were doing,” Lieber says. They found their answers not so much in the story they were telling but in the way they chose to tell it: through the kind of short, to-the-point episodes Quibi has specialized in since its launch in April.īut Don’t Look Deeper didn’t start out with Quibi in mind, despite it having been written in 10-minute increments. “What do we like about this? What is unique to our story that makes it worth telling even though it exists in this genre that lots of people have explored before?" he says. As McDonnell explains to SYFY WIRE, he and his co-creator found themselves grappling with questions about how to make the story unique from its contemporaries. Ultimately, Don’t Look Deeper is a story about identity, creation, and what it means to be human. It’s a tale that’s been told countless times, and which McDonnell and Lieber were determined to tell in a new way. And as Aisha dives deeper into her own troubled origin story, she’ll grapple with questions about her own humanity, and that of the AI around her. Little do these AI know that Aisha, played by Helena Howard, has more in common with them than they think. Hyper-intelligent bots roam the hallways and do their level best to assist heroine Aisha in the near-future sci-fi drama from creators Charlie McDonnell and Jeffrey Lieber. This doesn’t mean it’s the teacher’s responsibility to check you’ve done all that – these are obvious things to get right so you’re ready – they are sitting down in the boat and pushing off from the shore so you can be like one who rows, proud of his skill.Advanced Artificial Intelligence is the norm in the world of Quibi’s Don’t Look Deeper. As you walk into classes, you’ll hear teachers saying “Clubger” – a mnemonic for starting lessons that reminds you to take off your ourdoor coat, wear a lanyard, have the right uniform, put your bags on the floor, empty the gum out of your mouths, get the right equipment out and then reminds your teacher to take the register. That’s not how it works here – it’s your job to make the most of your studies, to look deeper and see more, and your job to help other people make the most of their studies, your job to make the school a more pleasant place for us all to be at. Let me explain: at secondary schools there would be rules, but it would be the teachers’ job to make you follow them, if you could quietly ignore them and get away with it then that was fine – actually it wasn’t fine, you were making headaches for other people, but as a kid you get away with that, you have grown-ups to help you. A big part of this is taking responsibility for your own behaviour. ![]()
