I'd direct her towards my groin first and then the wood chipper.
TV Viewers Want To Influence Plots
I would make James Nesbittt's head explode in any programme he appears in.
If I could control sitcoms it would be boring because the character would always make the right decision. Peep show would have only lasted a couple of episodes. Eep.
In Friends, Rachel would have ended up with Joey and not Ross.
I've been dreaming of this day ever since I cracked open my first Choose Your Own Adventure book! This is going to be awesome! Maybe they'll even retrofit old sitcoms with a branching facility that allows the viewer to decide whether Del Boy should fall through the bar or get a punch in the kecks from Trigger. Let's cover all the bases I say!
On one of my mom's soaps there is a guy whose supposed to be one of the show's sex symbols. He's got a major gut and whatever you call that guy paunch thing below the belt (like Fred Mertz on I love Lucy). They constantly have it hidden behind something like a desk or briefcase. So I would have my remote remove the stuff from in front of him so everyone could see what a fatty he is and get over it. This could make his love scenes very interesting.

Your groin is not in the TV show. It is at home *watching* the TV show.
This thread is about changing the stories you see on your TV. Not magicking plank-of-wood actresses to materialise in your living room and do nasty sex things involving sandwiches.
Anyway, you've spoiled it now. I hope you're pleased.

This concept is going to work great in wildlife films - poor lions starving to death as the viewers decide the cute little gazelle gets away every time.
BONG!
