Welcome to the first of my Project Reassembly databases, where I publicly post the episodes of the "tv shows" that premiere on Project Reassembly.

This one is for Bits and Pixels, which is made up on the spot, and has no consistency whatsoever. Expect to see a lot of dead memes here.

Bits and Pixels: An old classic show following the adventures of bit and pixel across the internet.

Episode 1: The Journey Begins. Bit is a normal guy, doing normal things, until he comes into contact with the mysterious Pixel, who, without warning, uploads him to the internet.
Episode Status: In progress...

Episde 47: Return of the Poptart. Nyan Cat and Tac Nayn are back for revenge after their most recent defeat, this time, with an army of bad Star Wars OCs backing them up.
Episode Status: Not started.

Episode 1: The Journey Begins
a happy spirited jingle begins to play as you see a human wearing a sort of green jumpsuit. It’s probably supposed to look cyberspacey but it just sorta looks stupid. Floating next to him is a floating pixelly smiley face
The two jump off a ledge down into a stream of 1s and 0s below as a guitar riff starts up
The two shoot forward through the stream as images pass by them. You can see almost every outdated meme to have ever existed.
Bit grabs onto a Pixel as the ASDF train shoots past, and grabs onto the back of it as the music continues playing
Bit and Pixel climb on top of the train as it chugs down train tracks and look out at a view of “Cyberspace”.
The camera pans up to the pixelly logo: Bits and Pixels

The screen fades to black, then bits of white begin to shine through
Bit: It's funny, isn't it. How the stars look like dead pixels from a distance.
Bit: I mean, I assume up close they look pretty different.
Bit: But... from down here on Earth....

The camera pans down, fading from black to blue, showing a guy pedaling on his bike. He's "Hollywood average". Brown hair that's way too clean, a T-shirt that was definitely ironed for some ungodly reason, and of course, a backpack full of books.
Bit: Probably shouldn't have said that to my astronomy teacher though.
Bit: Now I have extra homework.

Bit continues pedaling down the street. Welcome to suburbia, where all the houses are color pallete swaps of each other
Bit: Ah well, it's not like astronomy homework is that hard.
Bit: It can't be any worse than the time we had to write an essay on why the Big Dipper was superior to Orion, and give citations.

Bit pedals past a guy watering his lawn, he looks up and waves, Bit waves back
Bit: Ah, I forgot to introduce myself.
Bit: My name is

Bit's bike hits a rock and he catapults into the air. The camera cuts back to the guy watering his lawn as there is a crashing sound, the guy winces, and a single bike wheel bounces past him.
Bit: ...
Bit: My name is Bit
Bit: And my life isn't exactly perfect.

The guy goes back to watering his lawn, and the camera pans to Bit, who is busy picking up books and putting them back in his backpack. His bike is lodged in a fence, and there's a dog on the other side chewing on the wheel that wasn't dislodged by the crash
Bit: To put it simply, I'm clumsy.

Bit turns around and immediately trips on the same rock he crashed his bike over
His books go everywhere
Bit: I mean, I'm in college now so bullying isn't as much of a problem but my tendency to spill, drop or break everything I come into contact with hasn't earned me a lot of friends.

Bit picks up his books again and staggers away towards his house
Bit: I haven't really been able to hold down a job either…
A quick slideshow of Bit dropping things on his bosses. A vat of fry oil in a restaurant, a rack of freshly cleaned clothes in a retail store... etc.

Bit: So I still live…
The camera pans up to show a house that looks completely different from the rest of the houses.
It's bright pink
I lied about it looking completely different it's just painted pink.
Bit: There...
Bit: My mom's house

Bit sighs and walks in the door, stopping to scratch a droopy-looking mixed-breed dog that's snoozing on the porch behind the ears
Bit (no longer in narration mode): Mom I'm home.
Bit's mother (presumably): Alright honey! I figured you'd be hungry when you stayed out later than usual so I got you some food.
Bit: ...
Bit: Did you get me pink cupcakes again.
Bit's mother: awkward silence
Bit's mother: Ummm...
Bit: I think I'll just starve.

Bit sullenly turns into a hallway, which, I should mention, are all also painted bright pink
Bit walks down the hall to a door that is painted black, with a red paper skull and crossbones pinned to the door.
Bit opens the door, and slams it shut.
The skull and crossbones tilts sideways, then falls off the door.

The camera switches to a view inside of Bit's room. It is clearly meant to be a hacker cave, poorly lit, computers and wires strewn about everywhere.
Green hacker-text is scrolling up on one of the screens, and a bunch of games that aren't exactly right but are still recognizeable for what they're alluding to are visible on the center desktop. Elderbooks, Age of Nations, Craftmine, stuff like that.
Bit (voice over): Yeah, my mom's... something.
Bit: It could be worse, but still, my life has more pink in it than any boy or man can put up with.

Suddenly a little message box pops up in the lower corner.
Bit: Wait, that's odd…

Bit leans over the computer, looking at it
Bit: I don't think I started any of my chat programs up yet...

Bit clicks open the message. A chat window, with the username of the other person being "Pixel" opens up

Pixel: Oh thank goodness you got here! I was worried you wouldn't make it in time and I'd have to go somewhere else.
Bit: Uh... what? I was at school....
Pixel: At school? Aren't you like, 20 something?
Bit: Haven't you ever heard of college?
Pixel: College degrees are for chumps. Don't you know that higher education is a fiction invented by the government to get you into crippling student debt and thus easily controlled for the rest of your life?
Bit: ...
Bit: How many internet conspiracies are you on?
Pixel: If I were to count... all of them.
Bit: How did you get in my computer?
Pixel: Ah right, I haven’t introduced myself.
Pixel: I’m what’s called a metabyte. A sentient embodiment of the code on the internet brought to life by a mysterious force that even us metabytes don’t really comprehend.
Bit: That sounds made up.
Pixel: So do words.
Bit: What?
Pixel: Have you ever said a word out loud a bunch of times really fast? They stop sounding like words. That’s because all words were made up on the spot by some unlucky sap who will never be credited with his/her/tems invention.
Bit: Did you just says tems?
Pixel: Anyways, that’s beside the point, I need your help.
Bit: Okay, first, with what, and second of all, why should I even believe you?
Pixel: First: Saving the Internet, and Second: Because I can do this.

Suddenly a floating pixelated smiley face appears on Bit’s screen and he falls out of his chair


((This is where I stopped being able to work on the episode. I'll probably continue it eventually.))
