[ WP ] Pitch a gritty reboot for a children 's show .

In a post-apocalyptic Earth, whose climate has been wrecked by centuries of environmental degradation resulting in a new Ice Age, children are the most valuable resource. To protect humanity's future from those who would exploit or destroy it, the world's most brilliant remaining scientists genetically engineer a guardian for each child out of the only remaining land life forms capable of surviving Earth's near-constant sub-zero temperatures: polar bears. 
 
 
 Specifically designed to have increased intelligence, the ursine defenders are also given the ability to psychically transmit feelings of euphoria and relaxation to those who would threaten `` their'' child, thus rendering them harmless. Despite these abilities, the perilous world of Earth's future remains a constant threat to the surviving humans, and it is only by learning to work together can they survive -- with the help, that is, of their genetically modified CARE BEARS.
