My friend commented recently that when her daughter was an infant - 18 months or so, she could watch the kids next door jump on their trampoline all day.
I thought that would be a great TV channel. Kids bouncing on a trampoline all day and at night, for the adult male crowd, hot bodied chix bouncing in slow mo.
The Man Show on Comedy Central ended every episode with girls on trampolines.
I love westerns so I’d like to see Deadwood. But I don’t get HBO so, just like The Sopranos, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Six Feet Under, etc., I’m just going to have to deal.
A combination of Buffy or Angel and Deadwood I love the old west style, and I like super-natural style shows with a gang of friends. Joss Whedon has expereince with a Western-ish setting (although in space, many outfits, mannerisms, and what not are stylistic of westerns,) so I can see a series like this doing well with him at the helm. But I imagine he’d like to braoden his horizons, and not get stuck as the guy who makes stories about vampires (of which there would be cery little of in my show.)
I’d like to see, “So You Think You Can Dance Naked and Sexy” with strippers competing for prizes. The bulk of the show would be sexy naked dancing women (wouldn’t object of a spinoff featuring male dancers for those who like that sort of thing … this is MY show we’re talking about here.) Also, interviews with the contestants, backstage scenes as they try to psych each other out … could be fun. But mostly, naked women dancing. Figure it would work well on Showtime or HBO.
I want to wire two small towns secretly with cameras like the Truman Show. The reason you do two towns is that town A gets to watch town B and vice versa. But they don’t know they are on TV themselves.
Then I can watch people who don’t know they are being watched as they watch people that don’t know their being watched.
I also want to catch NYC subway rats and outfit them with cams so we can have The New Rat Patrol.
More shows like Airline but in different settings like Resort, or Movie Theatre, McDonald’s.
I’ve longed for more Western-horror hybrids for years. Joe Landsdale is the premier Western-horror writer (novels, short stories, and comics), and the “Gothabilly” band Ghoultown would be perfect to listen to while you’re reading his stuff. The comic book series Preacher, by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon, is also a lot of fun, if you don’t mind offensiveness, an anti-religious message, and occasional gory violence. It’s a Western-horror-crime-romance-comedy epic.
I’d love to see a series based on Roger Zelazny’s Amber series, dealing with the conflict between the Courts of Chaos and the House of Amber. The canvas is large enough that whenever one theme/set of characters gets dull, go to another, or switch to a Shadow world. It could become the first series to not get cancelled … ever.
I have long wanted a Zombie anthology show. Like a Night of the Living Dead the Series.
Season one would all take place on the first night. Season 2 on the second day. Etc. Etc.
If certain episodes and character proved popular with fans they would be featured in the next season or later on in the same season.
Mr. Ujest and I had a discussion over a show that would be uproariously funny and a trainwreck at the same time.
German Idol
Japan Idol
Every country Idol.
The german idol we pissed ourselves over thinking about someone coming out and doing techno musik or singing like Heino or even yodeling.
but have people from other countries, especially long standing rivals, vote.
Am I the only one thinking that many of Push You Down’s recurring characters would have more limited lines in their repeat performances?
