Comedic Drama Tv series: When a Nigerian foreign exchange student moves in with a white suburban, American family, cultural differences and close minded town ideals turns the once home, into a house of unrelated individuals
Good start.Black-white feels old and soft. Is there more to it??

Black-white feels old and soft. Is there more to it?? Assuming it’s America, is there any thought of an Arab or Mexican student?
Can’t imagine the parents letting it get so far, they’d end the exchange agreement and arrange for another family to take him, no? It’s not like an adopted child.
Add a paragraph to mention the key characters and their situations.
Is this a one-hour show or half hour? If the latter, any thought about the format…single-camera or multi? This will help with the mental picture and tone.

Funny, I thought you were following what dpg said in the first thread. And I just read the last post in it.
Consider that the family man is the one rejected by the GC as that heightens everything that follows. The truth is secondary to a good story and this adjustment is on par with 99% of true stories. It seemed obvious from the whole of the first logline so a couple of details escaped me.
I can easily picture the first half of the script covering the tension in all aspects of his life while awaiting the committee’s decision, which would be the Midpoint. Then what seems to be the least dramatic part, the steps to get the hearing in Congress, can be covered in fewer pages. Don’t mean to sound like I’m writing this for you, it’s to illustrate an example of thinking more about the story and less about the reality.
Another way to look at it is that more time on the GC is fresh terrain, while there are many stories about fighting government. The GC to me is more of a lure than dialysis in Congress. The title alone pulls me in more than the logline!

Why the limitation to LA?
Does the son partner with anybody?
From someone who’s only seen commercials and promos of other shows in this sub-genre: It seems the son character is what sets this apart, but is that enough? Is there more to him? Or is there more about the demons, like a specific plan or how they hide among us?
