Lilly and Max had a dream for this summer vacation. A dream to stream. But the plan to binge the hot days away falls apart when they are sucked into a cursed TV and transported to an interstellar tv network where they are told they will have to survive a gauntlet of shows that turn out to be more real than they ever imagined. Now, they have to live the shows they wanted to watch, and each episode is life or death. Behind it all, an evil presence pulls the strings. A mysterious magical mastermind, obsessed with this ultimate streaming universe and a misplaced vendetta against the teens. Between that and a hostile takeover of the space station, he literally runs the show. But where he came from and what he wants is as unknown as what he did to the previous producer, or what he plans to do next with Max and Lilly. It’s time to find out if these armchair critics can really do a better job than the characters in the shows they love. And if they succeed, if they survive, what will the wizard do then?
