The Reptoids from Uranus is a darkly hilarious sitcom following five dysfunctional reptilian priests running a chaotic temple network in the heart of Uranusburg’s CBD. Between checking on half-starved slaves in the catacombs, gorging on burgers for brunch, and fumbling through ritual sacrifices to their subterranean Triceratops deity, the priests constantly clash over their absurd daily duties. Packed with outrageous antics, bizarre rituals, and sly satire, this show is a comedic dive into the most disorganized cult you’ll ever love to watch.
The Priests :
Wannabe Overlord Self-proclaimed leader, obsessed with hierarchy and control. Micromanages rituals and recruitment but is constantly undermined by the others. Known for explosive rants when things go wrong. Keeps a “scepter of authority” that the others often steal or deface as a prank.
Conspiracy Prophet Believes the humans are secretly plotting against the priests, causing paranoia among the group. Spends time planting false flags and traps for “human spies” that usually backfire. Relentlessly pranks Slyzax to keep him “on edge.” Keeps a “truth orb” that supposedly reveals conspiracies but is just a glowing marble.
Gluttonous Strategist Focused on mass recruitment through indulgence—lures humans with promises of food and pleasure. Often distracted by his obsession with burgers and snacks, to the point of missing rituals. Schemes to turn Uranus HQ into a giant food hall once the Dragon's Eye is summoned.
Accountant of Doom Obsessed with logistics, budgets, and sacrifice quotas. Constantly clashes with Hazzark over “wasted” temple resources. Implements overly complicated systems to keep track of humans harvested and fluids/data extracted. Carries a “sacrificial ledger” that the others graffiti to mock his uptight nature.
Techno Occultist Oversees the Satanoclysm and ensures human fluids/data are harvested efficiently. Always one step ahead in tech but socially inept, making him the easiest to prank. Obsessed with the Dragon's Eye, believing it will grant ultimate power to him alone. Carries a multi-tool staff that malfunctions hilariously during rituals.
Setting : Johannesburg
The chaotic and eclectic city of Johannesburg, reimagined as Uranusburg, provides the perfect backdrop for The Reptoids from Uranus. Its vibrant mix of decaying urban architecture, bustling markets, and hidden underworlds mirrors the absurdity of the reptilian priests' dysfunctional temple network. The city’s contradictions—wealth and poverty, modernity and decay—reflect the priests’ own chaotic quest for dominance, blending dark humor with a surreal urban setting. Johannesburg’s unique energy amplifies the show’s satire, offering a rich tapestry of cultural and societal quirks for the priests to manipulate, exploit, and bumble through in their bizarre schemes.
