Plebs prequel

[sharoma]

Prequel shows have been an easy to way to make money off an existing franchise. Young Sheldon is an example. Since Plebs is one of my favourite shows and arguably the best sitcom of the last decade, what about a prequel? It could be called Young Grumio and focus on his life after he is discovered on a hillside near a farm in Pisa (a town invented for the show). The show could demonstrate how he gained his love of food. Being a slave, he wouldn't go to school with Marcus or Stylax. Instead, he'd stay at home. Marcus's mum would very quickly give up getting him to do chores. He'd sit there in the kitchen all day sampling her cooking. As for the rest of the plot, I've no idea. It could be set around the time Caesar is assassinated (44BC), since Plebs begins in 27BC when the characters are in their early 20s.

The Gods aren't hungry. Or, you know, real.
