Start off with the teaser of the pilot (or first few minutes of the feature), then introduce me to the characters/world, then where you see the characters going next, and finally the "why now" (why is there an audience for this series or feature and why do they need it now)
Anything that is fun, elevated, and feel-good. The world looks to entertainment now more than ever to give us a spark of joy during the unceratainties of the world and I would love to read something that will make audiences smile.
