Brainstorming session (Patreon)

Since this is a brainstorming session, this is a safe place for ideas. So feel free to suggest anything, no matter how off the wall.
Here's what I know:
1) The block rules are different for shorts. Things that would get blocked for regular videos fly right past for shorts. So far I've posted nearly a hundred shorts and only 2 of them have gotten fully blocked (both My Hero videos. I've done 4 videos for that show and 2 got blocked) and 2 of them were blocked in the US and one blocked in Germany. Considering I don't put a filter on the show footage, that's extremely good. So that tells me I can do almost any show via shorts.
2) Shorts reach a different group of people/are promoted differently than regular videos. So they're well worth doing.
3) My original channel has been shadowbanned for regular videos but I wonder if that applies to shorts?
4) The two biggest reasons I stopped posting on the original channel was it was taking an average of 3 edits to get the videos past The Block, a huge waste of time. And when the videos did post, they were hardly being promoted.
So, you can see what I'm thinking. Shorts solve both problems.
Therefore, I'm thinking about doing a shorts only reaction series to a specific show on my original channel. This would probably take the form of 2-3 shorts per episode. This would be ideal for a series that has 21-30 minute episodes.
I don't know if this would take off or not but I think its worth exploring.
The problem is I have no idea what show to start with so I'm looking for ideas. I prefer live action for this but that's not a deal breaker. I want it to be a short run series, a couple seasons at most. And the per episode time frame listed above. What are your thoughts?
