This is a very funny television pilot for a show that goes from city to city sending up what people talk about on their cell phones. The humor is dry, very British, and well-executed. A great idea for a TV show which is fully scripted and is in a different location each week looking at the different customs around the world with cell phone usage. One week they are in Los Angeles, which is what this episode is about, then the next week the ensemble cast travels to Bankok or London and they do what people are doing in that city. The music is quite interesting as well, it seems to be good transitions between the the short scenes which could be a little bit faster as at times the pace seems a bit slow.

Yes, you are quite right, it is a comedy, about the patriarchal rules and regulations being overthrown by the "female power" or the Goddess. Girl power is something that has been going on for centuries and in this piece, the idea is that the old dogmatic male aggression is finally ready to take a rest and let the female energy of persuasion take over. "Thou May" vs. "Thou Must". Quite an amusing intellectual piece which is a mix of sci-fi, comedy and male vs. female drama.

THE PURPLE ZONE is a delightful comedy about a goddess and a god on another planet who decide to reshape the universe according to the female principle of cooperation rather than the male principle of war and aggression, and is very direct in its symbolism. The music of Gustav Holst (The Planets) creates an interesting aura of outer space and of being in another dimension of stimulation.
