Onyx Season Preview

What’s it like?The A-Team and MacGyver plus Mission Impossible with a dash of Mad Men style.

“If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire…The O-Team.”

It’s time for a new season of The O-Team. Team Onyx reassembles the ragtag bunch of unlikely heroes dedicated to solving marketing and branding cases with expertise and style. This explosive reboot has Onyx branching out to exotic locales and adding several new faces to the cast.

Returning principals Nadia “Check Signer” Kamal and Kris “Uber Doodler” Carter have broken out of their Midtown location with relative ease to embark on establishing two new office spaces, one in Tallahassee and the other in Orlando. This season, the daring duo enlist some fresh faces to tackle their unorthodox but effective mission—to make beautiful things for every client.

Meanwhile back at Onyx HQ, Pat Parker a.k.a. The Right Hand acts as special agent, deploying stratagems to keep the O-Team on mission while deflecting interlopers with her analytical acumen and extreme customer service tactics.

You may recall Kimberly Portuondo from her stint as an intern. She now joins the main cast as the Editing Enthusiast whose social media posts keep the team’s fan base in thrall. She also provides guidance for those spunky interns, Strategizer Sully Moreno and Blogger Brian King.

New to the scene is laid-back filmmaker Aaron Nix as Sharp Shooter, the renegade documentarian with an unconventional POV. Kim McShane as Sorceress of Syntax employs clever disguises and snappy dialogue to wheedle the story out of tough customers.  And Drew Smith is the Digital da Vinci whose crackerjack inventions always get the team out of a jam.

Returning this season is munitions expert, Web Nomad Adrian Mummey, whose incendiary programming skills blow the competition out of the water. Carlin “Plate Spinner” Trammel reprises his role as the brash project manager with the organizational know-how (and great hair) to get the job done. Hilarity ensues from Trammel’s ongoing rivalry with Snazzy Sensei Angel Acevedo. His rakish style is integral to O-Team success, but his vintage hat collection poses a threat to the signature hair.

Plot lines this season involve unfrozen Skype calls, serial blogging, concocting outrageous product designs, unlocking the branding code, and adventuring across the International Date Line. Expect loads of action as the O-Team beats insurmountable odds through minefields of mischief and mayhem to save the day and MAKE BEAUTIFUL THINGS!
