1. Comment to this post with "I surrender!" and I'll assign you the basis of some tv show idea. (Science fiction show, medical drama, criminal procedure, etc...)
2. Create a cast of characters, including the actors who'd play them.
3. Add in any actor photos, character bios and show synopsis that you want.
4. Post to your own journal.
My prompt from
beloved_tree was "a situational comedy set in English academia." So with the disclaimer that I haven't seen a sitcom more recent than The Cosby Show and that my knowledge of current actors is predictably limited, and a note that since I don't have Photobucket, I've just listed IMDb links for actors' names, I give you...
Tenure Track
Being the life of the English department of Agarita Baptist University
Regular Cast
Jensen Ackles as Dr. Kurt Hauschild
Zooey Deschanel as Dr. Bess Bennett
Jared Padalecki as Don Jefferson
Elyse Levesque as Melissa Jefferson
Ben Barnes as Dr. Mac McDonald
Alaina Huffman as Dr. Addy McDonald
Kurt Hauschild has just returned to the US after spending three years in the UK getting his PhD and is about to start his first academic job, a tenure-track position at small, conservative Agarita Baptist University, somewhere in West Texas. Not only does he have to re-adjust to life in the States, he also has to deal with the crazy faculty members and grad students waiting for him there, not to mention being rooked into being on the chair search committee, plus the usual grind of publishing and attending conferences. Can his fellow young profs (neighbors all) keep him sane, and can he evade the hordes of single women determined to get an MRS this year?
( The profiles you are about to read are reasonably accurate. The names have been changed because there’s one at every school. )
:D
Any takers?
