Please note this is not Worst idea for a Sitcom
How often have you had an experience in life, or watched telly, or met some one and thought. What a brilliant idea for a sitcom!
I can't be the only person to watch the Fritzell story and think, that would be great on BBC One. Two families, only one character linking them. It would be like 'Allo 'Allo! with incest.
Or with the wide range of international volunteers for Al Quaeda. Mind your Jihad, a modernised version of Mind Your Language.
I meant structurally.
Any way News Revue have done atleast one skit on that subject a week since the story broke.
Are you going to write that, or can I have it?
Everyone write one, and see whose they take!
Sounds funny to me.....
Balls to good taste, let's bring back some PC baiting (i.e funny) shit.

Talking of "worst sitcom ever" and "worst movie ever", Raindance Films are running a competition along those lines over here:

Should we just send them all 120,000 entries from both threads?
What a wanderous contest with a lousy prize.
I suspect both threads count as a cultural WMD and you'd end up in Guantanomo.
I think I might have a go.
I just read the entries some bastard has ripped off my skit,
"They saved Hitler's cock,"

This has got everything, Mormons, Beauty Queens, mink-lined handcuffs, flights from justice disguised as a nun and sinister Korean cloning labs - sadly I think the only possible director to do it justice is John Waters and he only directs his own scripts.
It's Misery meets Nuns on The Run meets Beethoven's 2nd! I will actually write a sitcom about this woman one day, when everyone's forgotten she's a real person.
You have to admit this one:
JURASSIC FART
The last rectal emission of a dying Tyrannosaurus Rex is captured for eternity in amber - until a curious scientist releases the fart and Mankind is brought to its knees.
Is funny.

Nah, this happens all the time in Cardiff.
Did a search for her on google and came up with a trash novel called 'tell-tale tits'. Now that would make one hell of a film.
'In Front Of The Children'
Wendy Craig at Sunday School dressed as a dominatrix, beating the shit out of Paul Daneman.

This wouldnt be a good one because a lot of people would probably be offended rather than find it funny and same for the Fritzl one but you're right real life can make great comedy.
