These could be a start to gauge interest and then... maybe something bigger. Would be quite possible to get better funding once something of this nature already proved it's worth.A series of PSAs seem more plausible than a longer-form actual show.

Zombies vs Permies
I don't know 'Connections'. But I do remember a show that might have the right format for this; it was called Real People. I think it was on NBC. It was an american show in the 70's that had a couple of charismatic hosts who presented together on a stage before a live studio audience. I think I remember that there was a film screen, and they would have gone to visit and interview people and the screen show it to us at home and also would provide for the audience reaction in the studio. There was a great deal of amazing innovation being presented on this show, and it's probably where my Permie's/DIY brain really got it's first boost.As for shows, I used to watch TV and I sometimes borrow movies from the library... so, I'm not really qualified. I'm a huge fan of cli-fi like Atwood's After the Flood.
One idea would be the old show Connections - very interesting format and I can see it working for a premies subject, but I don't think it was mainstream.
