TV Show Draft - Gen Comm Thread

[Lucky17]

Either I need to watch more TV, or execs need to write more shows starring a hot 40-ish-year-old female lead who can kick ass.

Having a hard time coming up with the perfect, credible love interest for Sam Axe. Diana Prince came and went five years too early.

Hmmmm. Recasting?

WKRP went off the air in `82 or else I'd say:

Despite her lack of ass-kicking, Sam would be all over that like a bottomless mojito.

I don't watch the show, but the lead in the Good Wife might work.

Also, Sam Axe is kind of perfect, because healthy relationships don't apply to him. Older, younger, smarter, dumber, he's a man who has a 'type', but that type is 'disaster'.

Isn't she a lawyer on that show, though?

Hmmm. That gives me an idea, actually. Thanks, IP.

Right. I'm casting his love interest as an ex-wife from a spectacularly failed marriage from twenty years prior.

Raylan Givens, gunslinger
Daryl Dixon, survivor
Al Swearengen, anti-hero
Jean-Luc Picard, man of honor and righteousness, but the puppet of the ruling class.


Plans have been made, lines drawn, promises made, and broken. Who will stand?

The 1985 limit is killing me with M*A*S*H.

[pearljammer10]

Getting funky. Casted as the mentor or wildcard (depending on David Brent's casting position) is

Carter Pewterschmidt:

oh man -- I thought he'd last to the last round for me

Man, this sure does look as fun as I thought it would be, wish I would have joined.

I gotta say, there have been some super interesting choices, my top three fav being Carter Pewterscmidt, Alf and Daryl Dixon.

You guys should let me join late, I promise I won't screw it up for any of you.  And my TV show would ROCK!

Not gonna lie, I contemplated taking him in round 1 or 2 on day 1.

Has the post-1985 rule been explained yet?

[StartOrien]

Comedy, blood, interracial gay couple? Ryan Murphy just flew into a jealous rage.

Working on a comical, yet horrific childhood scarring moment that turned him into the kind of guy who gets a righteous rise out of embalming a living sicko.

Welp, I'm going to lose sleep tonight

[slamtheking]

so, with the late-to-the-party people, what's the new draft order? 

Tagged on after Redz's picks in the early round, before in the later round. So the later round basically goes: KGK>FWF>Lucky>Redz , with the earlier round finishing Redz<Lucky<Fwf<KGK

so basically squeezed between Redz picks between rounds.  ok, got it.

sorry guys, the '85 cutoff is a killer for the Love Interest category because Jaclyn Smith, Ms. Kelly Garrett herself is off limits to me.  I'm not happy about that.

[StartOrien]

Gotta say, surprised I haven't been able to decide on a leading man, yet. Tough task.

Also, gotta admit, kinda leaning towards the Wolf
