More of a comic idea, but I want to take the popular formula of the hero shooter video game genre and make a story in that vein. featuring a cast of colorful and eccentric characters with varying abilities personalities and aesthetics who are all competing for some shared prize or goal.
Kind of like Overwatch meets Masters of the Universe.

In the unseen guts of a dreary city, there exists a dark carnival where a bunch of freaks reside. One of said freaks is a clown with no memory of how he got there and an inability to die. No matter what kinds of stunts he's forced to preform or the severe harm he does to himself, he always seems to dodge the potential danger.
After a patron of the circus claims to recognize him and is hurriedly shooed away by the ringleader, the clown tries to uncover the secrets of his past. None of the other carnies seem to care about his plight however and are fully convinced both them and he have lived in the circus for their entire lives. His only friend comes in the form of a cockroach that can talk but doesn't seem to be a part of the show. In fact, the ringleader seems to have a severe hatred of insects and keeps the carnival at an almost unsettling level of sanitary to keep them at bay. With the help of his new friend, the clown sets out to try and escape the circus and reunite with the patron that they have the key in uncovering who he used to be.

Super ancient reptilian aliens come to Earth, wage war on mankind and win in about five to three minutes.
They make a deal with what remains of mankind's forces, they could wage an outright war on each other and whoever wins would be spared while the rest of mankind gets taken by the aliens as a slave race.
However, because the aliens don't want to risk the chance of having all of their potential slaves wiped out, they instead come up with another idea; they would summon every country's greatest folk heroes to fight each other in a true battle royal, with all of them having their feats put to their absolute limit in order to survive. They also 100% can't be real people unless they were all but deified post-mortem or something similar.
America gets John Henry, Greece gets Heracles, Italy gets Caesar as a conglomerate of all of the different Roman emperors, Japan gets Taira no Masakado, India gets Indrajit, China gets Sun Wukong, UK gets King Arthur, Germany gets Adolf Hitler (who is NOT holding back at all), North Pole gets Santa Claus, France gets Joan of Arc, etc.
Alliances form from the bloodshed, as well as plans to try and save mankind from their grisly fate. Plus DBZ tier fights like Heracles using his Twelve Labors to increase his strength, Caesar summoning the Beast of Revelation, or Indrajit using every single weapon he has on him.
also the emperor of the reptilians is actually the serpent which tempted adam and eve

From some other thread where we posted ideas based on images other people posted.
A SOL structured as informative videos/documentary footage in which machines and humans live side by side in an equal society. This society is struggling to come to grips with assorted forms of mental illnesses and general poor behavior from this increasingly intermingled mass of men and machines, usually manifesting as listlessness, obsessions, and general apathy. Despite seeming dystopian on the surface, the reality is that many have better living well within their grasp, but the disjointed, broken nature of life and society prevents many from taking the necessary steps to break free of cycles of addiction, loss, heartbreak, and poverty.
The main cast comprises a mixed group of machines and humans who are friends of each other. They drop in and out of each others' lives, sleep around, and try to deal with themselves and each other. Times both bad and good roll. Kind of like a robot-human MM&O, except tamer since the characters have no pressing need to try to get off of or even retain welfare, get jobs, etc.

A family (mom, dad, daughter, son) moves into a Silent Hill-esque town.
The son is a bit of a dumbass but he's a thrill seeker so he wants to explore the town.
The daughter is a good at everything but absolutely shits herself. She only follows her brother because she's worried about him.
As they explore the town they discover it's secrets.

It's not completely unoriginal but the concept of "Time Police" feels like it still has a lot of interesting potential. Time Squad did it so well though. I'd have to make it seem like it's not a ripoff. More action maybe. It would NEED comedy though. Maybe an episode where Hitler becomes a famous artist instead and the "team" have to fix it because reasons. Shenanigans ensue.

A spiritual successor to the D&D cartoon, but set in Eberron instead. And it's maximum dungeon punk. With airships, trains and warforged.
