SO funny! Mars reality show mockumentary

This is a cool indie web series that follows teacher (and plant-mold enthusiast) Maggie as she enters the final rounds of selection for a citizen Mars mission/reality TV show, and her boyfriend, Micah, a manchild with a heart of gold. Micah is trying to get Maggie to see that there's just as much to do in Staten Island as there is on Mars.

The series is entirely independently made, and the fresh-faced cast is joined by Sarah Stiles from the new Get Shorty and Scott Adsit (omg I miss 30 rock so much).
