Origin
Like Scientific Method before it, Redeemers was essentially a remake of something I created in the past. In this case, that something was Space Rescue Squad, a series that featured the crew of the starship Leviathan (who reappeared, revamped, in Redeemers) going on random adventures, helping people. I likened them to space lifeguards.
Space Rescue Squad lasted 23 episodes.
Festivals
The Redeemers pilot was screened at Baltimore Next Media Web Fest 2017.
