Netflix has ordered adult animated series Inside Job from showrunner and exec producer Shion Takeuchi (Gravity Falls), her first project under her multiyear overall deal with Netflix.
The 20-episode series is described as a “workplace comedy set in the shadow government, where every conspiracy theory — from the Illuminati to Reptoids — is true, and one woman struggles to keep the chaos under wraps.” Gravity Falls creator Alex Hirsch, who also has a lucrative deal with the streaming giant, is co-exec producer.

Sounds like fun
That's one of the best ideas I've ever heard of.
So kind of like Welcome to Night Vale?
Alright, I'm interested.
Welcome to Nightvale before it jumped the shark and flew off to the moon.
This could easily go into X-Files territory.
Sounds kinda Archer-ish which is absolutely a good thing
I feel like this show was made personally for me. I hope its good like Gravity Falls was.
If they channel even a little bit of the spirit of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt I'll be sold.
hell yes sign me UP
i've been wondering what Alex has been working on and this sounds great
A pre-Cyberpunk Deus Ex sitcom. Sure.
The basic concept of this show reminds me of Miracle Workers, a really amazing show I recently discovered that presents Heaven as a company, with the CEO being God and experiencing all the 7 Deadly Sins at once. This sounds like it will appeal to me for the same reasons.
Kind of like an animated "Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell" but with government. I'd watch it.
