9 of 30 - Television Series Proposals

   In todays livejournal megablogging gimmick I was planning to make my own rendition of something I swear more than one of the other 30 in 30 bloggists did, but in my pre-blogging research I've only been able to find one person who did it ([livejournal.com profile] stephenl, which makes me feel more like I'm copying him rather than working on a 30 by 30 tradition. I already have all my plans laid out however so I'm going to continue. (if anyone can point me to the other contributer on this subject I'd still greatly appreciate it)

Five by Five five ideas for new television series by 5pm.
5. "Evil Star Trek" - Obviously not under that name but that captures the concept best of any short phrase I could think of. This one's first because I can't wait to talk about it, seriously, its been my dream for months.
   As you know Captain Jean-Luc Picard has always been sickeningly politically correct and good, causing Patrick Stewart to play predominantly evil characters ever since. Now wouldn't the series be much more exciting if the Federation officers behaved much more like, say, the Empire from Star Wars?
   "Captain, the fugitives we are looking for may be stowed-away on that passenger transport among the orphans its currently carrying"
   "Fire photon torpedoes!!"
   "Con! Sonar! Crazy Ivan!
"

4. The Smurfs go to College - and become raging alcoholics!! Smurfette joins a sorority. To keep it up with the times we also introduce Emo Smurf, Rudie Smurf, Punk Rock Smurf, Addicted-to-Livejournal Smurf, Slut Smurf... Gargemel continues to attempt to break up their parties and slap them with noise ordinance violations, as well as to catch the under-age Jail-Bate Smurf binge drinking...

3. Mystery Livejournal Theatre 3000 - watch two robots heap ridicule and derision upon badly written livejournals. Or maybe Strong Bad should host it, he has of course pioneered the art of making hilarious commentary on people's writing.

2. Head of State Real World - George W. Bush, Saddam Hussain, Tony Blair, Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Il, and say 15 other leading world leaders all have to live together in a house, MTV style. Petty drama is stirred up among them as only MTV can do, complete with that thing where they put someone in front of a camera to complain bitterly about one of their housemates.
   My predictions? G.W. Bush and Saddam will start playing pranks on Tony Blair, at least one fight will break out in which Vladimir Putin will totally kick someone's ass (blackbelt in judo remember), the Pope (yea I just decided he's there too, after all he is the head of state of the Holy See) will teach everyone how a "real man" takes his liquor.

1. Livejournal Idol!! - Contestants will compete for the title of best livejournalist of course, but how? Here's an idea: they all have to write one entry a day for 30 days, and they best be making it the fraskiest megabloggiest entry they ever did write! Hmm I think I'm going to have to bring out Strong Bad again to be one of the panelists, also I suppose [livejournal.com profile] nibot could be a panelist, given his mad skill at correcting people on things they never cared enough about to get straight in the first place.. Who will be the third panelist? Thats todays discussion topic!

Red Army of the Soviet Union, 1932
I found this picture yesterday, it is excellent


   This relates to this post because: its um, a scene from the pilot episode of my proposed star trek show.

I like three and four the best, although 5 is pretty great too.

My sister and I were talking about how much we missed Mystery Theater 3000 just the other day while we were watching From Justin to Kelly on TV. That movie is hilarious, I think you would find it worse than Bring it On.

I think you should draw these smurfs, specifically emo smurf and punk rock smurffs, and then post them ASAP.

Would Jean Luc have hair if he was evil? Perhaps a dark curly moustache?

Oh if only I had a scanner, I'd draw so many diagrams for entries! )=>


the captain would have a first name for a last name to underscore how evil he is! He'd be Jean-Luc Pierre or something.

I heart you.

#5 is the best thing ever, you actually had me spit out my drink at "Con! Sonar! Crazy Ivan!"

Muahahahaha. No really I am very stoked on the topic.

"our enemies are escaping into hyperspace!"
"after them!"
"but our away team is still on the planet!"
"they're expendible, now follow that ship!"


If I could remember the line from Red October where Connery pronounces "adversary" funny I'd so work that in right now.. what was the line?

The real question though is who would be the third panelist in "Livejournal Idol?"
