@ Roast Geef – Fact: I originally thought it up as a rom-com like two months ago while daydreaming in class, and tweeted “I just thought up a rom-com so rom-comy that I think Kate Hudson’s agent’s phone actually rang.”

Seriously, DG, you need to copyright that “Breaking Character” idea, IMEEEEDIATELY! Fox will make a movie out of that with Kate Hudson and Gerard Butler so fast it’ll make your stomach spin.

@ La Schmoove – Fact: It’s a common misconception that you have to “register” something to have any copyright protection for it. The fact that I wrote it in this post means it already IS protected by copyright to a substantial degree. Says the guy who did a two-week unit on Copyright Law.

Yeah, “Breaking Character” sounds like it’s already in development. “It’s ‘Human Target’ meets ‘Wedding Crashers’! We’ve struck gold, Jerry! GOLD!”
I also have a note for the “Big Bang Theory” spin-off. Call it “Git ‘Em Dead” and the show sells itself down South.

I’d hoping Matadorks is like a spinoff of “The Pickup Artist” and is hosted by Mystery’s sidekick, who was aptly named Matador.

Standishland must have some fairly odd rules of succesion for the wife of the prince to be in line in any way. Normally a marriage is not enough, and the crown would probably (assuming the prince is an only child) go to a brother (or uncle if no brother etc.) of the king.

@Cow of Pain- I think the point is like a King Ralph situation where EVERYBODY else is dead and it’s either this or no monarchy.
@DG- I work in tv production, I’m pretty sure I’ve helped cut the promo I described. I’m also assuming at the start of the pilot, the main character is “Hollywood ugly” with a bad wardrobe and glasses and then by the end of the episode he’s wearing 900 dollar suits and has a fancy haircut and looks like that guy from White Collar and the love interest is this “complex brunette” who is dating this complete douchebag that is probably cheating on her.

I think Standishland is one of the Seven Kingdoms on Game of Thrones, so pretty much everybody is in the line of succession.
There’s a Funny or Die pitch for a premium cable old timey intrigue show, but they neglected to call it Fancy a Beej, M’Lord?

I don’t think I could ever suspend disbelief far enough to watch a show in which the NFL owners were heroes. It just isn’t possible. At least two of them are already cartoon supervillians.
I also can’t buy the premise of REPENT, MOTHERF*CKER, because everyone knows Ray Lewis’ supposed religious epiphany conversion “I’m a good person now all of a sudden so like me” is complete bullshit.
