Their leader, the Red Raven, has assembled a team of viligantes from various regions of the multiverse to fight crime on Absalom Station and beyond.

I keep thinking that there would be something like Absalom's Top Spellslinger contest too.
Take on the Iron Wiz for a chance to be named the next top caster!

The Kindler Chronicles
A trivid series supposedly based on a series of famous gothic-horror novels by a pre-Gap Golarion author. Known for its spooky feel and focus on cheesy purple-prose inner monologues, as well as the hammy acting of its "monsters," the KCs have becoming something of a cult following. Ironically, this has also greatly boosted the sale of reproduced, translated copies of the original text. To the displeasure of some, this has also created a lurid fanfiction community on many infospheres, which tend to glorify and sympathetically portray Kindler's monsters. Of particular note is the saucy erotic romance of a vampire and a human named Black Dawn , which has a massive following among (mainly female) adolescents across the Pact Worlds. This work is particularly controversial on Eox, where prominent vampiric undead in government veer between seeing the work as a type of racial flattery that portrays their kind as something other than monsters, to cultural appropriation that fetishizes their condition for the entertainment of strangers.

Someone mentioned in a previous thread the idea of Two gnomes, Zip and Zap, the Zap-it brothers. A duo that ‘helps’ people fix their spaceships and personal craft over pact-world wide broadcasts.
“And even though Desna reconsiders her stance on pursuing all dreams whenever she hears US say it, this is NPR, New Pact-Worlds radio.”
“And even though Zo! deeply regrets funding us whenever he hears US say it, this is NPR, New Pact-Worlds radio.”
“And even though AbdarCorp petitions their god to stop encouraging ALL business whenever they hear US say it, this is NPR, New Pact-Worlds radio.”

The King of Bards
Michaellis Djacksen was a renowned Bard with an eccentric dance style focusing of swift steps and acrobatics. He became popular with succeses like Suspense, Swift Great Rogue, Dark or Light, Together in the Material Plane, Evil and Win It. He got the nickname King of Bards thanks to his music.
While he enjoyed his career, he passed away after ingesting drugs due to health problems, and his fans were saddened a lot.
However, there are rumors that the King is still alive as several new songs were heard through the radio. It is still under investigation, as there is no proof that he is indeed alive or if it's an imitation, be magical, mecanical, technological... or undead. Also, many other musicians and singers seem to have resurfaced with new songs. Witnesses have heard the likes of Aronis Parsley, Madeleine Monroegomery, Jonathan Lennox, Frederick du Mercure, Lisbeth Husdon and recently someone simply known as the Monarch.

Super Drift Task Force
It is rumored that a group of viligantes known as the Super Drift Task Force, dressed in bright colored jumpsuits and face-covering helmets, is fighting crime and helping the populace. Many reports featured alien criminals attacking various settlements, only to be thwarted by the Task Force. Furthermore, every criminal has been demonstrating the supernatural ability to grow in size, terrorizing people even more, only to be pushed back by a giant humanoid robot made of several smaller machines.
Local security hasn't tried to stop the Task Force for illegal activities. In fact, they have been trying to contact them to thank them and to be able to work with them in the future, as they are concerned about these criminals, as well as whoever they work for. On a sidenote, the task Force members have yet to reveal their identities.

Summoner
Summoner is a hybrid game between a holographic video game and a trading card game, as players battle others with digital creatures, each with stats, attacks, special abilities and the like. The game's designers have released several packs of cards featuring heroes, monsters, weapons, spells, traps, fields and much more to pepper battles. There are also live competitions held in conventions, where the holograms are heightened for greater spectacles.
While the game itself is harmless, there have been reports of obsessive gambling and similar problems, not to mention that it tends to attract a younger, more vulnerable demographic.

Calcei
A popular metal band from the Veskarium, their lyrical content centers around famous battles and military history, the band's name referring to a style of military boot. The band is led by their bombastic vesk singer, Jubdi the Bullet, instantly recognized by his gravelly baritone, dark glasses and armored vest. Despite being vesk in origin, the band has had several new members over the years and does thorough research for their songs, so almost anyone in the audience can hear a Calcei song about their planet's or culture's military heroism.
A couple of conceits – I am neither and advertiser nor a script writer. This idea came to in the form of a commercial, so that is how I want to present it. For any professional advertisers or script writers out there, please forgive the errors (numerous I am sure) in how I present this idea.

Battle Bots AG
Many machine rights groups have tried to shut these shows down. This drone battle sport has survived the gap, and every other challenge thrown at it. Pact military units have started manufacturing the winners and deploying them.
Your After Gap Battle Bots are quite capable of continuing to fight when the signal is interrupted, but the remote is necessary to call them back. In addition to flippers or buzz saws, many are equipped with a light swords, a laser, or a blaster. Sargent metalhead, a perennial favorite was built by space marines and can fire up to 6 grenades before it needs reloading.
While operators are careful to not let their masterpieces turn on the crowds, a crew member who has one and is forced to abandon ship will usually turn their Battle Bot lose on the raiders. It's not uncommon to find a battle bot running wild in an abandoned ship or base. Castaway, another popular Battle Bot, was redomesticated by a hacker who found it's control frequency.
Honestly amazed there isn't some Ancient Aliens Equivalent here

Aroden: Master of Absalom
An older vidgame from about eighteen years ago, Aroden is a city-builder set in pre-Gap Golarion, where the player builds and develops a city through the course of multi-episode "Adventures" retelling famous Golarion myths and legends mixed in with a little pre-Gap history. Cities are constructed by placing housing and other buildings for industries on empty land, with houses evolving to become more spacious and developed as the player distributes resources and amenities while working to complete each episode's goals, while trading, negotiating or engaging in military conflict with other cities.
Golarion deities like Aroden, Pharasma, Sarenrae and Gozreh feature prominently and may either support the player, requiring the player to construct a large temple structure for them, or oppose them, by periodically attacking the city and causing problems related to their divine domain. Famous monsters like The Whispering Tyrant, the Spawn of Rovagug or Ydersius may also invade the player's city, whether sent by an unfriendly deity or acting on their own, requiring the player to summon a famous Golarion hero to slay it, such as General Arnisant, Taldaris, and Old-Mage Jatembe (though if the player has constructed a Sanctuary for Iomedae, she can slay any monster in the game). The game later received an expansion, titled Elion: Master of Azlant, where the player may construct Azlanti cities, including new deities and monsters, along with an Adventure Editor so players can design and share their own city-building scenarios.

Goblin Court
Initially produced as a serious documentary on the essentially insane legal procedures among the goblins on a remote asteroid, the show is now widely viewed as a sort of socio-political commentary, especially as this form of goblin jurisprudence is seen as more honest than many other legal codes...
In the trials documented, the judge is the oldest (or drunkest) goblin present (ideally both).
The defendant carries a trash can lid which is used to fend off the garbage thrown at them by the prosecutor as they explain their version of events. Being knocked cold by a hurled piece of refuse is generally seen as an admission of guilt.
The judge passes sentence... often, before the explanation is complete, and if the community (which turns out to watch) agrees, it is carried out. If not, the defendant, prosecutor, AND judge are generally eaten by the irate mob.
The show is a MASSIVE hit among long-haul cargo crews, who can generally count on some tragicomic violence to liven things up.
Creature Contest
Contestants create living, and not so living, creatures for that weeks situation and environment. Each week one contestant wins special equipment, and a loser is eliminated, but returns for the finale. The first season ended with the creation of 2 titanic space marines to fight an actual swarm invasion. Cyberzilla won by messily chowing down on the Bug mothership.
The panel of judges include maz-nug the Primordial one, Mario the Flying Spaghetti Monster, and a surprise celebrity judge.

Implausible Journeys
An unconventional medical drama centered around a revolutionary new microsurgery process using virtual reality to control microscopic nanobot avatars that can enter a patient's body and treat injuries and diseases at the cellular level. The protagonist, Dr. Grant Michaels, uses this technology to treat patients of many different species, with each episode divided between Michaels' travels through the patient's internal systems to locate the source of their health concerns and Michaels' colleagues outside the virtual reality, helping him to navigate and diagnose.
As the episodes progress, Michaels develops a romance with one of his coworkers, Dr. Peterson Duval, and begins to discover connections between the patients he's been treating with the new technology, leading to the discovery of a conspiracy looking to exploit the technology for nefarious purposes like assassination and later manipulation of the brain structure to affect memory formation and motor control.

The Great Green
An animated children's trivid series set in Castrovelian prehistory, centered around a group of renkrodas of different species traveling from their dying homes to Ukulam, which they call the Great Green, dodging predators and having adventures. The first trivid is well-loved for its stunning animation quality, complex characterization and sometimes quite dark plot for a children's trivid, and its amazing soundtrack. However, it has since been followed by a string of lighter sequels with a much more mixed reputation, though they have the reputation of being harmless, enjoyable and heartwarming and many lashunta parents have a soft spot for them back from when they were kids, so the sequels continue to be produced.

The proposal
What started as a documentary on Vesk mating rituals has become a cult favorite show. With each episode featuring what many consider to be bizarre contests that include arts and crafts, combat poetry, shelter building, tail wrestling, seduction dances, and of course dueling.
The show has taken to adding non standard competitions as a way to gain ratings these clearly are an effort to compete with other reality show programming and have received some pushback from the traditionalist vesk viewership.

In Thrust We Trust
ITWT began as a show about new starships, similar to Galactic Touring. In fact, the original cast moved to Galactic Touring after a few incidents with Jezza and the Ysoki.
After they were fired, ITWT's producers decided to hire a more authoritative cast. And so they hired Fleeta "Fleetfoot" Padfoot (halfling female), three-time winner of the Absalom Run, and one of the top circuit racers; Tairon (Lashunta Korasha male), noted explorer of the Drift; Rebeka "Revved Up" Terapin (human female), freighter pilot and former star of the reality show "Terapin Express"; ship designer and modder Upgrade 1 (asexual android), and "it's" tech, Tweek "The Tweeker" (Ysoki male), to xover the latest in ship's systems and weapons. And for combat experience, they chose Katara "The Gatecrasher" (Vesk female), one of the top fighter squadron commanders of both the Vesk War and the battle against the Swarm, and Admiral Trig Masterson (human male) (Ret.), fleet admiral of the AbadarCorp and ATech fleets during both wars, and who led many assaults against the Swarm.
After surpassing Galactic Touring in the ratings, In Thrust We Trust branched out into special episodes, spaceship sim games, sites on most Pact Worlds infospheres, and is now its own network, with not just the main show, but separate shows with each cast member covering the latest developments through their own area of expertise, coverage of both circuit and endurance racing.

Clever Slam
Nobody knows if this duo of sentients are really androids, but they have an humanoid shape and their heads display luminous glyphs in various languages.
They took the known worlds by surprise with their sensory shows, mixing vibrations, wavelengths and rythms in extremely catchy numbers that everyone can enjoy like "Around The Drift" and "Congratulate".
They only appear holographically and without warning near large groups of sentients in the Pact Worlds, and each of their performances so far has seen mixed-race impromptu dancing.

Muffy the necrophile. A racy parody of an ancient 2D televideo show, it is suspected by some to be a vehicle for top secret information. The entertainment industry and various secretive organizations are all bidding and plotting to obtain such episodes. The species of the special guest star is usually indicative of the desired recipient of the episode.
