TV Show Draft - Gen Comm Thread

[StartOrien]

We're going to figure out a way to write more jetpack into the show. Perhaps an aerial martial-arts duel between Walker and our secondary antagonist.

My friend had a weird streak where he got into things right before they blew up pop culturally, Walker was one. I'd say I'm embarrassed by how many episodes I've seen, but that's just not true. Quite proud.

Kelsey Grammar is first guy to be picked twice, right?

Mr. T.

Michael C. Hall (Dexter/6 Feet Under) was the 1st.

But in addition to him, Mr. T, and Kelsey Grammer, also Seth MacFarlane is pulling double duty with Brian Griffin and Carter Pewterschmidt.

Plus I'm not really sure if the Property Brothers are two different guys, or are just doing some slick editing, Parent Trap style. 

[slamtheking]

We are moving David Addison over to 6th man (Funny Person) in order to select another starter (Best Friend): Sgt. Cordell Walker (Chuck Norris) from Walker, Texas Ranger.



At this stage in the draft, we couldn't ignore the value here. Chuck takes the ass-kicking quotient on our show to infinity.

I considered him as my lead.  can't believe he lasted this long.

Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the world down

 Dangit!

[pearljammer10]

At this point I have to take him.

Cast as the Leading Man (And a first upon eventual revealing of the series):

The one, the only...Will Smith, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

[Lucky17]

Fresh Prince in the last round is tremendous value.

[StartOrien]

Fresh Prince in the last round is tremendous value.

Ya, big time.

[Lucky17]

For our second antagonist, we're going with Wo Fat (Mark Dacascos), from Hawaii Five-0.



We'll try to work the catch phrase "A la cuisine!" into episodes somehow.

Sorry I'm late.

I was busy writing a song.


It was called. I wanna rock your body.


And then,  in parenthesis, til the break of dawn.

We select Carl, from Aqua Teen Hunger Force, to be the secondary antagonist.

I may or may not sing this song to my wife way too often.

...my pick's coming up in a minute.

[fairweatherfan]

As wild card, I'm selecting Tina Belcher from Bob's Burgers.

[fairweatherfan]

All right, the final pick probably needs some explanation before unveiling.

A year after the events of True Detective, Rustin Cohle is looking for a change - he's looking for an escape.  He decides to give up on sleuthing, settle down with his true love Beavis and open a pizzeria with longtime chum Rita Morgan and a wacky cast of co-workers and rivals.  But just when his life finally seems to be going right, things take a turn for the Emmy-worthy.  Coming this November: True Detective, a Girl, and a Pizza Place.

For the theme song, we'll be using "Run On" by Johnny Cash, set to a montage of pizza-making.  Something like this but better-synced:
