YuTübopołis: Quickening The Çastle
While meeting resistance from myriad ilks, a motley crew race against time to revitalize the crumbling Gothic-esque edifice of a former prison and its environs.
The clock is ticking! YouTubers team up with a cryptocurrency startup in their envisaged quest to revitalize a once God-forsaken prison The Çastle into a vibrant 146-acre complex embodying the headquarters of YuTübopołis, [The South] YouTube Space, YouTube Hall of Fame with its acclaimed chef-owned panoramic restaurant overlooking the Cumberland River, outdoor organic and vertical grow farms, and Tennessee State Prison Museum. This hybrid docusoap subsumes rare footage spanning over a hundred years, interviews of erstwhile TSP denizens and retired guards-cum-screws and of equally eccentric Libertarians and [alternative-lifestyle] vloggers (including performances), segments of where-are-they-now YouTubers, surprise cameos, clever lawmakers and lawyers, and [ideally] voice-overs provided by the once homeless Ted Golden Voice Williams. Each episode, depicting a recurrent countdown clock and to-date itemized expenditures, builds on the former as we follow ameliorations of the co-ops awardment from the state of Tennessee laden with a strict completion clause of less than three years to accomplish said feat or lose their lease [or purchase] option and the millions already invested all the while facing blowback from city, state and federal regulators, historical societies, the surrounding neighborhood, churches, and even from the teams respective communities prior to the yearn for summer 2019 grand opening coinciding with a sponsored multi-day VidCon-esque jamboree chock-a-blocking downtown Nashville, climaxed by YouTube stars performing live as part of the highly anticipated season threes two-part finale, revealing in real-time towards its end the formal announcement, presented by the Governor of Tennessee, of whether or not policy-makers granted permanent occupancy, sealing the fate of YuTübopołis.
