Overview
Set against the backdrop of a major drug cartel bust, the series follows two low-level cops who have spent far too much time in a car together, two criminals who are largely kept in the dark, two dispatch workers who haven't really clicked and two Mexican tunnelers who are in way too small a space considering they've only just met.

Primary
No Activity is an absurdist comedy that focuses on the mundane aspects of police work and low-level crime, deriving humor from character interactions and the lack of activity. It consciously avoids taking a stance on broader political issues, making its central thesis apolitical.
The movie features a visibly diverse cast, incorporating various racial and ethnic backgrounds and genders without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles. The narrative maintains a neutral or positive framing of traditional identities, with no explicit critique or central DEI themes.
Secondary
No Activity features Carol, an openly lesbian dispatcher, whose sexuality is presented as a normal part of her character. References to her relationships are incidental, integrated into casual dialogue without being central to the plot or a source of either affirmation or denigration, resulting in a neutral overall portrayal.
The American adaptation of "No Activity" features Detective Judd Tolbeck, a Black character, in a role equivalent to Detective Bruce Miller, a white character, from the original Australian series. This change in the character's established race constitutes a race swap.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The American adaptation of "No Activity" retains the established genders of its main characters from the original Australian series. No characters canonically or historically established as one gender are portrayed as a different gender in this adaptation.
