Prime Video is always on the lookout for that next piece of content that will be on the lips of everyone around the world.
Whether it’s Luxe Listings Sydney or the Lord of the Rings, it’s all about getting the right combinations to send viewers wild.
Prime Video Australia has put a call out to content creators across the country if they have any ideas for a new series and it looks like they might have a winner.
White ibises are famous Down Under and everyone absolutely bloody loves them, even though they look like the animal version of a Black Death doctor and are constantly rifling through our bins.

Ceejay & Lexy came up with the ingenious idea to make a musical about the infamous bin chicken.
The content creators explained their reasoning why Prime Video should throw their hard earned cash behind the project.
”Ok, ok. So what’s the Aussiest animal that most of us see and comment on on a daily basis?” they rhetorically asked. “If you said kangaroo then you’re wrong. It’s a bin chicken. So we’re thinking a musical about a gang of bin chickens, with all the razzle dazzle of La La Land, filled with the drama of West Side Story.”
Um, that does sound incredible.

They continued: “Our two hero Bin Chickens have hit upon tough times, and they’re looking for one more big bin score to pay off their pokie addiction at the local R’ey. It’s like Oceans 11 but with bin chickens. Introducing Bin Bandits.”
Green light this right now Prime Video.
But if that doesn’t tickle your fancy then there are other suggestions under consideration at Amazon HQ.
There’s a documentary series called The Real Parking Inspectors Of Sydney, which I would absolutely binge the s**t out of.
Not only is the poster hilarious but the tagline of ‘The signs say 2 hours but these inspectors have no limits’ has me in stitches.

Lachy Mac devised this brilliant series and says it would deliver the same amount of drama as Keeping Up With The Kardashians, The Bachelor and Real Housewives.
“Watch as we take you into the lives of a group of parking inspectors as they battle trying to balance upholding the laws of parking and trying not to be an absolute d**k all of the time,” Lachy wrote.
I’m already hooked.
Jim Rossington also came up with the idea of Bougee to Bogan, which would see wealthy people get a lesson or two about being a ‘true blue Aussie’.
“From giving the finger through your car window, to paying for your Supre dress with Afterpay, this TV show will turn snobby Australians into the perfect everyday Australian with one ‘oi’ at a time,” Jim said.

While Swooping Places is the brainchild of Kieran Brodnik, who has come up with a Freaky Friday-style series that sees one Aussie bloke wake up one day to find out he’s living as a magpie.
He gets an uncontrollable urge to swoop people and has to work out a way to get back to his human self.
Sign. Me. Up.
