The Plot evolves around the life of Rob and his house mates Duckie,Siegfried the fish and Fern the plant. It Is a animated series
that is being worked on voluntary, more information in this regard is offered on my site http://robslife.webs.com

The actual humour and graphic style of the animation is similar to shows like family guy, american dad,simpsons and dilbert.

He's picture is still getting designed but he is basically A Misfit in the world of Geeks and Normal People, he gave up his life

as a normal person to pursue being a geek but then forgot how to be a geek now he does'nt know what he is still he maintains a

nice personality, although he can be somewhat vague when it comes to real life situations, and he does'nt quite know how to deal

with his overburdening house mates, but he loves them all the same

his voice like Jon from Garfield or Dilbert From the animated series Dilbert ? The pitch in his voice would be medium?

Is a Biological experiment,
He has a rough voice, but don't let that fool you he is really nice, but also he is to the point, and if he's upset he won't

dibble dabble he'll tell you right there and then, and sometimes quite sternly. He does'nt have a accent.

dad like show to come into existence.
In all fairness, you don't mean "-like show", you mean "ripoff".

It's like Seth MacFarlane went on a Bender and threw up all his rejected characters and the Cleveland Show wouldn't even take them so he crumpled them up threw them in the trash where a 12 year old found the drawings and decided a talking Ficus was just darling.

Nah, seriously I might audition.

Might.

Yes I know it seems like a rip off but please trust me it's humour although being similar to that of family guy and dilbert is completelly different, I think you would understand more If or when I send the complete script.

I cannot do that at the moment as it is still in its finalising stage but here is the script for scene 2

President: Hey Mary, I gotta go to the Le John can you warm my seat while I’m gone.

Mary:It’ll be my pleasure sir.(very enthusiastic)

Presidents: Thanks Mary
President: (VIEW HEAD – THINKS) with a bazooka like that my seat will be more than warm when I get back!

(Presidents walks out of office)

(Mary Sits Down, Red Phone Rings, Mary answers in Decisive Voice)
Mary : YES?(firm – straight answer)

(Nuclear blast seen in background through office window)

SCENE CHANGE:(President talking to Le John, near Le Johns Office which is marked Le John, Notices Explosion in window near Le Johns Office )
President: Oh Dear Lord, What has she gone and done now?
