​
Otis is a digital-technological sitcom, satirically and amusingly depicting the era of technology from a different and original point of view. A sitcom starring software programs, apps and computers. It's series of short, humorous stories whereby the main characters are a Web server, a Firewall, a malware, a chatbot and a motherboard.
Each episode deals with one of these stories, from the point of view of the users (the people) and the show’s heroes (the software). Their daily routine changes when Lydia discovers that, in light of the site’s growth and increasing sales, engineers have decided they need an upgrade. They are now trying to decide whether they should upgrade the existing characters or create an entirely new server, which would mean cutting off energy for our entire cast of characters—a death sentence. This threat preoccupies our heroes throughout the season.
