''Content'' (2019) is a limited webseries created by Creator/LudoStudio (who also make ''WesternAnimation/{{Bluey}}'') and released by Creator/TheABC. It is part of the new genre of Screen Life, wherein the entire storyline plays out on the screen of the two main character's smartphones through their texts, [=FaceTime=] calls and social media accounts. In short, it's about Lucy and Daisy, two best friends who are very different. Lucy is a broke 23-year-old chasing internet fame (through any means necessary) while Daisy is her studious roommate who wants to be a graphic designer. The show aims to explore friendship in the age of phone-obsession and internet narcissism.
