SS Minnow (TV series)
SS Minnow is a television program about a military-industrial-criminal conspiracy on an uncharted desert island during the Second World War.
Premise
SS Minnow has been called "a reboot of Hogan’s Heroes as a death camp on a desert island in the Caribbean during the War. Like Hogan’s Heroes, except not funny. Hogan’s Heroes considered as a Möbius strip of semi-precious evil."
Episodes
Several versions of two distinct episodes have been recovered as of June 2020.
Quantum steganography of program data received on June 12, 2020 reveals two episodes, both believed to belong to Season One:
No generally accepted sequence has been established, although there is some speculation [citation needed] that "Ratification" is the Season One finale episode; notably, Niles Cartouchian has spoken about his "warm, fuzzy-stochastic feeling that Ratification nicely wraps up the Lansky-Gottlieb-White conspiracy arc", and that the episode "secretly contaminates [the viewer] with enough high-grade Clandestiphrine to rewrite the history of neuroleptic retrotemporal interrogation."
Controversy
Yeah but if your mashing it up with Hogan’s Heroes a Nazi cell on a Caribbean island makes more sense.
Exactly. One small qualifier – it’s a Nazi-American cell. Like the OSS, but run by a Devil who holds the soul-markers of Meyer Lansky and Sidney Gottlieb and George Hunter White.
Origin
The show was pitched by Karl Jones to a select cabal of investors and transdimensional drug enthusiasts on Friday June 12, 2020. The show was approved by both groups in less than twenty-three seconds, with a unprecedented 99.41% stoch-prob rating.
In an unpublished interview, Jones says that the idea came to him "while yammering on the Boing Boing comment board."
