#tv show concept

[wanderingmind867]

I have an idea for a story I want to try to create in The Sims, but it works just as well as a genuine idea for a comedy. So let me give you the pitch: an alien from the farthest known reaches of space crash lands in a house owned by a married couple and their two young children. Taking him in, he becomes a new, eagerly accepted member of the household. He lives in their furnished basement, while the rest of the family gets the two floors upstairs. It's an unconventional living situation, but it works for them.

In true awkward sitcom fashion, however, our alien protagonist has to try and hide his identity from all the earthlings outside the house (all while also learning about the strange new world all around him). Permanently hiding behind his futuristic technology (which cloaks him in a human disguise), our alien begins working on restoring his spaceship so he can return to his home planet. But as he works, he begins falling in love with the planet earth. More specifically, he falls in love with an awkward earthling who's aspiring to become a popular stand up comedian.

Introducing himself to this new human while in his human disguise, eventually the two of them end up dating. But our alien hasn't ever revealed his true identity to his partner, and his new earth family are beginning to struggle as they cover for him. And also, the spaceship our alien crash landed in has been sending out distress flares this whole time, and now his family from space is coming to rescue him. How will all of these moving parts come into conflict? Is a happy ending possible, or are our two lovebirds fated to never be together? If this were a real sitcom, you'd have to tune in to find out. And the show would get at least 5-6 seasons.

TV show called The Makeunder that's about rentals, that have been made whimsical by their tennants, getting reverted back to their millenial grey, sterilised modern original look at the end of a lease when the tennant moves out

[stra-tek]

They need to make a whole series about a small group of Starfleet officers or civilian scientists in a tiny science ship investigating the UNCOMPREHENDABLY ENOURMOUS Dyson Sphere from "Relics"

Think Ringworld meets Lost

Yes I know the Sphere from "Relics" was unstable, maybe they find another one. There was one in a TOS novel too but it fell into a black hole.

Who built it?

Where did they go and why?

Who else may have found the Sphere and made a home there?

Endless forests, cities, sewers, hi-tech places, impossible vistas done on their VR screens. Even if it's not a Trek show, the concept is too good to be a B-plot in an episode then never mentioned again!

[acourtofquestions]

Anyone else get major Celaena Sardothien vibes from Elora Danan & vise versa?

Especially with the whole (I’m still reading them so I don’t fully know/no spoilers plz) Aelin Galathynius thing… heck even other Maasverse Series with ACOTAR & Feyre!

… not me turning Willow into a bunch of fan edit inspo for these books becoming cinema… IT JUST VIBES OKAY?!

"My Adventures with Batman" Anime TV Series idea

Following the success of "My Adventures with Superman" on Adult Swim, I was think that the next DC property that should be given an anime show is Batman. The title of course being "My Adventures with Batman". However, while Batman's name is in the title, the series does not focus on him. Instead, Dick Grayson will get the spotlight for once. And this show focuses on Dick Grayson's origin as Robin.

RATING

Either TV-PG-V or TV-14, you decide.

ANIMATION

Like "My Adventures with Superman", this show would use anime-style 2D animation. It would also take place in the same universe.

SETUP

The first few episodes focus on Dick Grayson's family life performing under his family circus troupe, The Flying Graysons. When the circus comes to Gotham City, Bruce Wayne and Alfred attend, only for there to be a terrorist attack, resulting in Dick’s family getting massacred, and Robin being only survivor. With Dick now as an only child, he gets sent to foster care, where Bruce Wayne adopts him and trains him to be his young ward, Robin.

Later episodes can focus on Robin teaming up with Batman while fighting crime in Gotham City. And we would see how Robin handles crime-fighting a lot differently than Batman.

CAST

The voice of Dick Grayson, I was thinking should be voiced by Zach Callison (whom I just found out also voiced the Damian Wayne Robin in "Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part Two"). This is all I've got, as I don't know who should voice Batman, Alfred, Commissioner Gordon, Barbara Gordon, The Joker, Riddler, or any of the other Batman characters. Even if Tara Strong should once again voice Harley Quinn and Barbara Gordon.

This is all I've got, but one other thing I'm hoping this show will do (if of course Adult Swim and DC make my idea a reality) is to have a crossover special where Batman and Robin guest star in "My Adventures with Superman".

there's something so heartbreaking about watching the show and seeing literal children. because annabeth speaks like she's been screaming for years, and no one cares to listen. grover worries like he's replaying the death of a loved one in his head at any given moment. and percy carries his anger like it's the only thing that keeps him going. and they're kids.

i kind of have to laugh each time dnf queerbaiting is brought up because they don’t know. they don’t know how deeply abnormal these guys are about each other this isn’t a fan-invented ship… george refused to go to america before getting his visa because he couldn’t stand the thought of having to leave dream. and dream refused to show the world his face before george had seen it and they could finally start their life together. like i just have to laugh so hard at the word “queerbaiting” like my man i have no idea what they have this is some freaky ass deep devotion i have never felt in my life

Remember my Sims 4/Sitcom story idea post? If you don't, I just reblogged it. And if you do, here's a continuation to it. Meet the five main characters (at least as of the series premiere), the McLellan family!

Hasure Udonda/Hector McLellan: Our alien and leading protagonist. Hector is a shy, socially awkward man, befuddled by the weird world of earth society. He's not a bad man, but he is lost and confused. He dresses incredibly out of place for a modern man, he talks like a robot sometimes, he tries to fit in but doesn't do a great job of it. His adoptive earth family adores him, because he is a kind man who grows to care about them all. But he is also a man who wants to get back home to his parents and family, so he's really caught in a dilemma.

When Hector eventually falls for the budding entertainer who nobody else seems to appreciate, he becomes even more conflicted about what to do with his life. As he falls in love and gains a boyfriend on earth, he doesn't know how he could possibly be expected to leave earth behind and abandon his adoptive family and his boyfriend. In the end, he gets so lost and conflicted that only his alien parents coming to him can help him solve the dilemma. He's truly a man divided between worlds.

Martin McLellan: Martin McLellan is a family man, deeply in love with his wife Jeannie. But Martin's commitments to his family are sometimes strained, since he's also a scientist working at the town observatory. Some people in town deride him as a kook, but Martin is so sincere and kind that nobody can ever actually hate him. They mind consider him a loon, but they'd never call him a jerk or evil or unkind. Nobody can speak of unkind word of Martin, he's just so sincerely optimistic and good hearted.

Martin is the reason Hector gets taken in by the family. Martin saw Hector's spaceship hurtling towards earth through the observatory telescope, and he tracked the path of the ship until he managed to find it out in the new mexico flats. There, he helped extricate Hector from the crash site and led him to his family's new home. Martin was so excited he couldn't help but enthuse about it to his wife and kids. A real life spaceman! With them! Martin had always been dreaming of this moment, but he never thought it'd actually come! And all because he took this new job in New Mexico, uprooting his family from their home in Minneapolis.

But Martin's the one responsible for helping renovate the house to include Hector. He's also the one who most loves having Hector around. Him and Hector frequently exchange knowledge and information, and Hector even helps Martin out at his workplace in exchange for help getting back home. They grow to have a really deep bond, and it's really something to behold once the two of them have started talking about science to each other.

Jeannie McLellan: Jeannie McLellan is the homemaker of the family. A lover of all things gourmet, Jeannie was a high profile chef in Minneapolis when she happened to see some of the waitstaff at her restaurant bad-mouthing a customer for his eccentric habits. This customer ended up being Martin, and it made Jeannie fall in love at first sight. Rushing to his defense, she successfully defended his honour. And then an average night at work quickly became a first date with the weird alien obsessed scientist living in town.

One thing led to another, and Martin and Jeannie became proud parents to two adorable children. Both of them adore their children, and they love gushing about them to anyone who'll listen. But lately, Martin and Jeannie have been struggling with their relationship. Jeannie feels stifled at home, since she's permanently bound to the role of homemaker and mother. She wants to be a chef again, damn it! She wants to make delicious food for the people again! So when Martin moves the whole family to New Mexico for his work, it's almost the last straw in their relationship. They still love each other dearly, but they don't know how to make it work.

It's into this situation that Hector the strange alien visiter arrives. With Hector now there to help with the kids, Jeannie successfully persuades her husband to let her go back into being a chef again. So by the end of Season One of the TV show, Jeannie is successfully running and operating her own restaurant again. But now she's not just a leading cook. Now she's a lady who's 100% in charge of her own business! And to think, it never would've happened without Hector…

Although Hector initially doesn't get along with Jeannie (food on his homeworld is very different from food on earth, and he once accidentally insulted her cooking), the two of them slowly became like family to each other. It's slower than it was with Martin, but by the end of Season One or Two, Hector and Jeannie are pretty much family just the same.

Darrin McLellan: Darrin McLellan is the oldest of Martin and Jeannie's two children. Ten years old at the start of the show, Darrin is almost the complete opposite of his father. Lonely and pessimistic, Darrin dresses in almost all black (or at least black and white). He's only nine, but he acts like he's carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. An oddly intelligent kid, but one burdened by a melancholy far beyond his years.

Hector coming into the family actually turns out to be really beneficial for Darrin's development, since they're both just as shy and socially awkward as each other. An alien from the far reaches of space and a lonely nine year old boy end up far closer than anybody would've ever suspected. Hector almost grows to see Darrin as his real nephew. When Hector learns Darrin was bullied at school for being different, he almost ends up using his technology to take revenge on the bullies. Darrin talks him down, but the two of them might be the closest members of the family (even closer than Hector and Martin).

Samantha McLellan: Samantha McLellan is the youngest member of the McLellan household. Only seven years old when the show begins, Samantha is a very sporting and sociable young girl. In contrast to her brother Darrin, Samantha is a complete social butterfly. She has almost dozens of friends. People just love her. She's a sweet girl who's nice to everybody, and she makes herself well known amongst the community. Her family has only been living in New Mexico for about a month, and already Samantha has friends all over the neighborhood.

When Hector joins the family, Samantha takes it upon herself to try and introduce him to earth culture at large. Since she's only seven years old, she almost completely overwhelms Hector with information. She makes him stress and awkwardly force himself to be something he's not, but she doesn't do it intentionally. She's just a seven year old girl with far too much energy on her hands. It's not her fault Hector seems to enjoy spending more time with Darrin.

But even though Samantha initially feels like Hector loves Darrin more than her, that would be disproven by the end of the first season. At the season finale (maybe around the 30 episode mark), Hector helps set up Samantha's birthday party, and even buys her a gift straight from the heart (with deep meaning and sentimental value). And in that moment, Samantha finally realizes Hector loves her like a member of his alien family (thus wrapping up a season long storyline).

PS: If you know what Martin, Jeannie, Darrin and Samantha are all referencing, them congratulations! You know about as much tv show trivia as me, someone who's read wikipedia pages on way too many old american sitcoms. And you get commendations for recognizing my little joke.

"Disney's Angels" TV Show idea

30 years ago, "Angels in the Outfield" hit theaters. And its success led to two stand-alone spin-offs that don't connect to the first movie. Those spin-offs being "Angels in the Endzone" and "Angels in the Infield", which were both released on ABC in 1997 and 2000 respectively. And yet, with the rise of Disney+, it got me thinking, what if "Angels in the Outfield" had an animated TV series that was based on the films?

In my mind, I imagined that this show would simply be called "Angels", as opposed to "Angels in the Outfield: The Animated Series", or something like that. Reason being because I figured every episode title begins with "Angels", kind of like how with "Hercules: The Animated Series", every title for each episode began with "Hercules" and branched off of that name.

DISTRIBUTOR

Disney+

ANIMATION

I think 2D animation may qualify better as opposed to CG animation.

SETUP

Every episode would take up a full 30 minutes, resulting in two commercial breaks. The show could last for about two seasons at best. And as I stated up top, the title of every episode begins with the word "Angels".

CAST

The big debate I have is if cast members from the movies like, hypothetically speaking, Christopher Lloyd and David Alan Grier should reprise their respective roles as angels Al and Bob Bugler, or if they should be recast with sound alikes. But alongside them, we would get a new set of characters.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt even once stated how he'd be all in for an "Angels" reboot, so I wasn't sure if he should return as Roger Bomman (albeit grown up) or if he should voice an entirely new character.

EPISODE IDEAS

Down below are some ideas I have for episodes this show could have, and it doesn't always have to rely on helping a sports team. Some episodes break the norm by showing Angels helping other people with real-life issues.

"Angels on Ice" - The premiere episode where Al helps out a losing ice hockey team.

"Angels on the Court" - A new angel character helps out a losing basketball team.

"Angels in the Midfield" - A new angel character helps out a losing soccer team.

"Angels in Las Vegas" - A new angel character tries to stop a hustler from gambling in the casino and warns the hustler about the dangers of constant gambling, which can be considered illegal.

"Angels Wipe Out" - When the angels hear a prayer from a surfer, Al's constant helping prevents him from taking a vacation in another part of Heaven, which worries the other angels.

"Angels We Have Heard on High" - A Christmas-themed episode based on the song of the same name.

This is all I've got, but while this idea may be religious, I'm still hopeful we'll get an "Angels" TV show on Disney+ one day.
