    If you could have your own television show...

    What would it be?

    Mine would probably be a mockumentary (like the Office or Arrested Development) sort of in the vain of Degrassi, but with more of a focus on comedy than melodrama. It'd be sort of like a sitcom, only smart. More Seinfeld or Yes, Dear than Friends or Full House. But there would also be super heroes. Kind of like Love Fights, only about teenagers.
    I think I would call it Ugly People In Love. I'm not too sure though.
    It'd tell the story of Ichabod Doppelganger, who is secretly Emo Boy, one of the city's many masked heroes. The way it's set up though is that he's a major character in the series, the big mystery is who Emo Boy really is. In other words, his identity isn't immediately revealed to the audience, though he is Emo Boy. And like many other heroes, he has an arch nemesis: Scene Kid, who is actually his best friend (treachery!). He's sort of like Bizarro Emo Boy.
    Also unknown to Ichabod/Emo Boy is that his own sister is another villain, Spectgirl, a villain with ghost-like abilities.
    Their are other characters and heroes, but mostly it focuses on the life of Ichabod/Emo Boy, things like how he's trying to escape the shadow of his former mentor, the Switchblade, who, after losing his mind, turned into a villain (and is, in the grand scheme of things, the series' major villain).

    And now you go!

    I would make a behind the scenes show, that follows the development process of a video game.
    XBox Live: Alzar2k
    Playstation Network: Alzar2k

      I'd have a political commentary show on a mainstream channel like CNN. Unlike the others, I'd actually tackle the issues of peak oil, supression of alternative fuels, how the Iraq War was over oil instead of simply stating such, illegal activity on part of our government, and all the various scandals associated with whatever administration is in power. I would bring upthe NPR coverage of the Gauntanamo Bay prisoner who was raped by American soldiers at the age of 15 when it aired, of which there was silence by all the other 'mainstream' media, along with constant violations of international law and our constitution. I would not whore to the network the show is aired on either. I'd critiscize the **** out of them, especially their lobbying to the FCC to consolidate their monopolies even more. But part of the 'deal' under such a wish would be for me to be impervious to being fired or killed.

      *edit

      Oh yeah, I'd call it: "Guns, Octane, and Leather." It would be sort of Mad Max themed, as a compliment to the serious commentary. Guns would even be brought on air, along with people dressed as barbarians crashing the set with motorcycles on occassion.

        Sounds neat, Terr. Would it be comedic, like Daily Show, or 100% serious?

            That would rock. Do it.

            As for me, I'd make a miniseries out of my game-turned-book idea.

              I can't think of anything good, so I'll just do catering for Terr's show.

                I'd make a GoodNews(TM) News Report. Top stories from all over the world.

                      It would be mostly serious. Like 90%. Unlike the Daily Show, the News I'd cover wouldn't be satirical, however, on real events that occur, there will be serious commentary along with jokes made about the situations or parties involved.

                      And there would be plenty of barbarians, leather, guns, motorcycles, and musclecars to go around. Oh, and metal too. Got to have metal playing. Some punk thrown in as well.

                      I'd invite people like Bill O'Rielly, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, and dare they show up? They certainly wouldn't be able to hold their own. Maybe the religious crazies like Sean Hannity could get a scare or two from 'Dominatrix', a scantily clad babe in leather that occassionally crashes the set on her custom-built chopper. She carries a mean whip and loves to undress.

                        You need to have a crazy voodoo guy there too, with a big bone through his nose, like the dude in Live & Let Die.

                        That sounds like the greatest show ever. Could GWAR be a musical guest?

                          I was thinking more along the lines of a pygmy tribe midget for comic relief, that rides around on a pocketbike brandishing a BIG BLOODY CLEAVER and wears a sombrero and chain mail.

                          Could GWAR be a musical guest?
                          Hell yes.

                              This is predictable since it's me, I suppose, but I'd have my novel made into an anime series.
