I find the good people here witty and wise and I bet you/we can write our own sitcom.  Nothing too serious.

                                    The job of hand will be to post:


  1. The characters
  2. Which celebrities to cast
  3. Guest star personalities   
  4. Their locations
  5. Their occupations
  6. Who's their friends, etc.
  7. The situations they fall prey to
  8. Any unusual family members
  9. List some quirky obstacles

Just let your imaginations flow take a break from chess and have fun.

Okay, you'll need a waitress who is always late to work, and misquotes philosophers for fun, but the entire waitstaff doesn't know thisWink

How about a mildly successful Jewish stand-up comic living in New York and his quirky friends that go on adventures.

The Australians appear to be two decades behind on getting American television.

trysts

Another character should be a successful radio mime.

 Very good we might find trouble with copy right laws, and with the "Seinfeld" associates.

 Oh no you're kidding, alright we will just need to write one better than those pesky Americans, lol.

For casting, I recommend computer recreations of famous dead comedians.  Like George Carlin and Dave Coulier.

 Dave is dead?  I wasn't informed.  As long as George doesn't wave a flag with his 7 filthiest words you can't say on the tellie.   Can we cast Bob Saget with Dave?

And now that Amanda Knox is out of prison, we can see if she is available, maybe cast her as a prison guard or a prisoner who writes poetry.  Maybe call it "Prisoner in Pose".  It's maybe a start?

GeordiLaForge

There's nothing funny about Iowa.
