Synopsis/Details
This comedy follows John, an underemployed philosophy grad, who accidentally infiltrates the Department of Inexplicable Affairs (DIA) after being mistaken for a deceased psychic prodigy. Thrust into a world of psychic espionage he's hilariously unprepared for, John relies on his philosophical insights and knack for improvisation. His only ally is a cryptic janitor with a thick Russian accent and mysterious proverbs. Together, they navigate absurd bureaucratic challenges and over-the-top missions, with John's pseudo-philosophical babble inadvertently solving real psychic mysteries. This series blends bureaucratic absurdity with psychic phenomena, creating a world where the only thing taken seriously is the art of not taking anything seriously.
