Bad ideas for TV shows

Post Reply New Topic

CSI: Portland

-It would take place during the day

-The rain would wash most of the evidence away

-All the lab techs would show up on foot or bike

-It would be funnier

-More music

A TV show based on the Geico cavemen commercials..... oh wait, that already happened.

GUARDS

It's like COPS, but with security guards.

The first episode:

-Security Officer Johnson sits at a desk watching a security monitor.

-Security Officer Jimenez patrols an office building, making sure the doors are locked.

-Security Supervisor Hazelton sits at a desk reviewing timesheets.

The racist house

A Reality show (already a bad idea, but wait - it gets worse), where one of each race (black, latin, asian, white, indian...etc) who is prejudiced against all other races are forced to live in the same house; and no lessons are learned throughout the show.

The Bottlecap show!

A show that focuses on nothing but bottle caps; each show can focus on one type of bottle cap and its history.

Sockpuppet theatre!

An hour long show of some of the greatest plays performed by sock puppets; low budget effects only...(no cgi). Sponsored by detergent commercials.

The Pi show!! !

A show guaranteed to never end!! ! A person recites pi in front of a camera; when that person dies, another takes his or her place!

That's funny DHP - especially the pi show. Let's hear some more.

Big Brother!

... no, wait, they already did that ... er...

A national talent show where members of the public embarrass themselves in front of celebrity judges, a live audience, and the phone-voting public!

... no, wait, they already did that one too ... er ...

A remake of a classic 1980s action series, like Knight Rider or Battlestar Galactica -- oh, wait, they did those too.

Isn't there something fundamentally wrong when they're already putting all the really bad ideas on TV?

In the wise words of PC Andy...

CSI: Cardiff.
Measuring the velocity of a kebab.


10 Points if you know where that's from.



Don't Lie to Me.
A paranoid schizophrenic attempts to solve crimes by locking up everyone who he thinks may have done the crime. Wait... that's a bit too much like Monk. DAMMIT. I love Monk, but IT STOLE MY IDEA.



X-Factor, Britain's Got Talent, Strictly Come Dancing etc. etc. etc.

A kebab?
So that's what really killed Suzie Costello. And it explains why there's garlic mayonnaise on the resurrection glove.

I LOVE YOU. 10 Points for getting the Torchwood Reference!

Doctor Who as a soap opera...

Hmm... maybe that has already been done too...

WHOEVER HAS DONE THIS MUST BE FOUND AND DESTROYED AT ONCE. DESTROY THEM... DESTROY, THEM, AT, ONCE.

CSI: London

CSI: Rome

CSI: Sydney

CSI: Paris

CSI: Tokyo

Remaking MASH! to take place
during Vietnam, Operation Desert Storm,
or worse Iraq/Afghanistan.

MASH! is still hilarious today, in opinion.
