No more squeezing end credits unless you are showing a clip from next week's show. Stop advertising your other shows, fuckers.

- HBO's Foundation series by Jonathan Nolan would exist finally, and be good and not blow it - That everyone involved with Lost would get a magical do-over with the knowledge of how the first one worked out, but still fresh and new to viewers - That Pushing Daises was never a casualty of the writers strike and got to live out its natural life in peace

Networks don't get to gently caress with episode order. They play in the order the show creators intended.

thedaian posted:All shows that attempt any sort of series long plotline must have that plotline written out in advance of the show starting. And networks can't cancel shows before said plotline is resolved. And shows end after said plotline is resolved, instead of limping on into eternity. This would preclude some of the best shows on TV from coming together the way they did, or even existing at all, so I'm using my wish to counter this wish.

It's the same reason people sitting at a bar never touch their beer. And why bartenders never refill drinks, and prefer to clean glasses rather, than you know actually pouring drinks.

Also, my wish is that if you're going to have a show with some big central mystery, you should know the answer to the mystery before you start production. Stop pulling poo poo out of your rear end.

Tiggum posted:They're opaque cups with lids. Just put some sand or rocks or something in there so it has some weight. Rocks could shift and cause noise, sand could spill, and, most importantly of all Factor Mystic posted:nobody cares. Tiggum posted:How? If the level of liquid in the cup wouldn't match the amount supposedly drunk in the scene. And then we'd have weirdos making youtube videos about how TV shows will have a character take a sip from a cup of coffee, then the next shot it's almost empty, then it's 3/4 quarters full,

I think I'd like a Justice League International superhero sitcom, maybe starring Adam Scott and Joel McHale as Blue Beetle and Booster Gold, with Keith Giffen and J.M. DeMatteis as supervising producers, and the writers' room made up of Comedy Bang Bang, Childrens Hospital, and Parks and Recreation veterans. It could even share some actors with the current DC shows, but do its own storylines with its own writers, avoiding all the CW relationship melodrama.

FactsAreUseless posted:It shouldn't be Murray anymore. I haven't decided who I would get for that, since it's hard to find Murray's mix of sentimental and cynical, but structurally it works perfectly. The movie's themes of repetition fit perfectly with the constant return to the status quo that defines sitcoms, it has the kind of will-they-won't-they romance subplot that is again perfect for a sitcom, and you can do the Pawnee/Springfield thing of bringing in side characters and slowly developing this town. John Krasinski comes to mind. Edit: Or Rob Livingston. Timby fucked around with this message at 21:19 on Jun 5, 2016 |
