The series, set in 1940s Los Angeles, explores the dramatic intersection between genius and madness, science and science fiction.

CBS Television Studios is producing in association with Scott Free Productions.<\/p>\n<p>CBS All Access is working with Ferrell, Adam McKay and Funny Or Die on <em>No Activity<\/em>, marking the first original comedy for the VOD and live streaming service. Based on the Australian series produced by Jungle and broadcast by Stan, the series is set against the world of a major drug cartel bust. It follows two low-level cops who have spent far too much time in a car together, two criminals who are largely kept in the dark, two dispatch workers who haven\u2019t really clicked, and two Mexican tunnelers who are in way too small a space considering they\u2019ve only just met.<\/p>\n<p>Also coming to the service is <em>$1<\/em>, a mystery\/thriller set in a small rust belt town in post-recession America, where a one-dollar bill changing hands connects a group of characters involved in a shocking multiple murder.
