Crunchyroll describes the story:
The under-funded TV station "TV Nanana" works daily to make up for their lack of budget with wisdom, stamina, and teamwork as they battle rival networks. But between the younger audience's loss of interest in traditional TV, a sharp decrease in ad spending, and a decrease in enthusiasm for their independently produced programming has put the company in its most dire situation ever.So, in a desperate attempt to secure high ratings--and the network's survival--the director of the expedition team, Nanaoka, his cameraman, Nana Mori, and AD Nanayama decide to secure footage of the legendary cryptid, the kraken. To do so, they will travel to the perilous supernatural sea known as the Banana Triangle! After chartering passage on an illegal squid fishing boat, they head out to sea. But waiting for them in the mysterious waters ahead are vicious sharks, giant whales, and fearsome pirates! Not only that, but after drifting ashore on an isolated island, they encounter an increasingly odd menagerie of characters.
The first 24-episode season of CG anime shorts debuted in April 2018, and Crunchyroll began streaming the anime in May 2019. The sequel, TV Yarō Nana-na - Wakuwaku Dōkutsu Land, premiered in April 2019. Crunchyroll streamed the anime under the title Wacky TV Nanana 2nd season. The second season also had 24 episodes.
