Hats were destroyed in an intergalactic war long before the era in which Awesomenauts is set. Turns out that they were aliens blending in to our society and they just tried to take over one day. Even though hats can't do all that much, we barely came out of that war alive and vowed never to wear hats again. So yeah, that's not gonna happen.

What do we bring to the meeting? I don't know, but the TV Executive better bring a couple bags of money.

The pilot will probably just be the theme song, and if it doesn't get approved by the time the chorus comes around for the second time then it's probably because the audience was still stunned by its awesomeness.

About the actual episodes, I reckon Lonestar will be the main character together with Clunk, who serves as the man-of-little-words / comic relief. A typical episode will see Lonestar being contracted for a mercenary job along with several other Nauts. Those would act as the cast for the show, so it'd always be Lonestar, almost always Clunk, and random other members of the cast. They'd go somewhere, blow stuff up, find out a mystery, blow that up as well, do a couple of one-liners, group-hug, learn something about each-others' past, then move on and enjoy the money. As an overarching plot, Lonestar actually struggles with his own existence, as he was created by the Bovinians and they built a theme park around him and he never had a loving family. He's actually just trying to find a place in this world. Eventually, it turns out all Awesomenauts struggle with their past, but it doesn't really matter because they all love eachother and will be BFFs for life. AWESOMENAAAAAAAUTS!

Inspiration would be the game, obviously.

It'll be Froggy G. on the shirts for the boys, because he'll just be the cool guy in the show that talks funny and takes out 20 guys with a single Splash Dash, while listening to hiphop. Raelynn for the girls, because she's a pretty girl with big gun, and I've been told they dig that.

He's a rebel like that.

I'd love to see the roster grow quite a bit more, but have no idea what a good spot would be. We want them all to feel unique, so we probably won't end up with a roster the size of DotA or games like that. As long as we can come up with unique characters and skills that we haven't done on any others, I'd love to see the roster grow. We could probably double the roster though, without running short of ideas!

Would love to do another Design-A-Thing contest. Those have always been a lot of fun! Nothing to announce for 'Nauts in terms of content though - we've basically been all-in on Swords and Soldiers 2 Shawarmageddon over the last couple of months, so we didn't have much happening outside of that.
