We've all sat there watching a p#ss-poor sitcom and thought "I could do better than this with my eyelid stitched to my hole". Well now's your chance. There's no need for lengthy episode summaries, just a quick synopsis of the sitcom and what it's called. I'll start you off:

Blackpool Rock

We follow the trials and tribulations of Keith, manager of a keyring factory just outside the seaside town by day, but lead of a mullet-bound 80's rock band gigging around Blackpool's club circuit by night. Done in docusoap style.


Off you go.

Yeah he was on some prog last night. Apparently he was 11 years old when he was playing a character aged 7-8. The stuff about him being 30 was just tripe. Anyway, being such a success reaped the rewards, which his parents then duly robbed him of.

diff'rent strokes was great. coleman wasnt exactly a great actor, but the way he did it made me laugh. it wasnt particularly well scripted, but it was a good sit and it made me laugh.

*i forgot the details about coleman. has he died or is he going to die early or something?

My idea involves two disabled men (both paralysed down one side of their body) who have live in a boathouse on the Thames in London, want to compete in the next Boat race. However one wants to row for Cambridge and the other Oxford. One is also black and gay, the other white and homophobic, and they both love the same woman. Much hilarity ensues.

The sitcom will be called Different Strokes.

My other idea is about three non-religious men who end up living with a religious man, to the extreme, and have hilarious debates about God whilst on the dole. One of the guy's is African and the other Scandnavian. They all talk in Imabic pentameter except the churchy who uses blank verse

The working title is Much, Adu, Abbot Nuffing.

I've told you this before - the best idea for a sitcom is a continuation of the Terminator series, where they send a cyborg back in time every week and he has to assassinate a celebrity guest star. I'd buy that for a dollar! (that's Robocop) I know.

I'd base a sitcom at a Bullfighting stadium..

"And heeerrrrreeeeee comes the ambulance..."

Or somewhere else where a lot of avoidable accidents happen.

Haha.

I love you all, equally.

Surely there must be some way I can incorporate that into my sitcom.
