|    My Complaint About "The Sopranos."    |

      XPost: alt.alien.vampire.flonk.flonk.flonk, alt.usenet.kooks, re       .aviation.military       XPost: alt.tv.sopranos, alt.2600       From: godsspeciallamb@gmail.com              Okay, I know it's a good show, yes. But why does it have to be about       the Mafia? I think we can do without all that sex and violence and       cursing and references to Italian food. Why can't this be a nice, sweet       show which only vaguely alludes to the seedy underworld life and sexual       perversion? This is the kind of show we need. Or better yet, what       about a show about a zany Sixties rock band? THAT'S IT! They would all       live together in their studio apartment and have all sorts of wacky       misadventures. What fun, eh?              Some of the things they do will be: audition for television shows, solve       mysteries, and adopt a pet gorilla! (All will be zany.) Each episode       will have some kind of lesson at the end, highlighted by an intermission       showcasing won (1) of the bands' (Is that correct? "Bands'"? Or is it       "band's"? Thanks.) songs, in a music video-style format. Maybe won of       the guys will have a girlfriend who's always getting in the way. Or       maybe not. (you tell me???) Won (1) of the guys could have an uncle       who's a witch doctor. That right there ought to be good for a few       laughs, right?              There will be a lot of funny sight gags like, the phone rings and when       they go to pick it up, it's a banana. (LOL.) They will drive around       the neighbourhood in their convertible car, while playing their       instruments. The lead singer will drive, so as not to cause accidents.       If the singer has a tambourine solo, then the bass player will drive.       The car will not be a stick-shift. Maybe they can just have a       microphone mounted onto the steering column, so as to make less fumbling       for the singer. The drummer will NOT drive. Maybe they will do good       deeds like help the neighbourhood kid deliver the most papers in the       paperboy contest (since he doesn't have a dad, he looks up to them).              A funny segment will be the guys chasing after the gorilla all over       town, to the tune of some zany music. This will be filmed at high-speed       for maximum humour. Imagine these guys chasing a gorilla through a       fancy restaurant, or hotel lobby at HIGH SPEED! Some funny things that       might happen: a fat lady faints and a waiter runs over to fan her with a       stack of menus; a sophisticated older man wearing a monocle that pops       off when he sees the zany sight; the chef in the kitchen cutting onions       and crying (unrelated gag). Do you think this is a good idea for a       show, or what?              Instead of being poignant, it will just be cute and wacky. Sometimes       crude. Sexual innuendos can get a lot of mileage in comedy. Maybe       during a funny chase sequence, they can run by a pretty girl and then       when they're gone, her dress is missing. There will be only veiled       references to drug abuse and suicide. Won (1) episode could have them       staying at a haunted mansion. Another idea is that won of the guys gets       hit on the head and gets a case of amnesia, and the other guys fool him       into believing that he's their butler.              So to sum up, this is my complaint about "The Sopranos."              Bye bye, oh and enjoy your day! I love all of you.              Love,       Wavy G.              --       Mimus hasn't written anything funny about me lately.              *****************************************       * *       * Wavy G *       * mail me at: *       * godsspeciallamb@gmail.com *       * *       * *       *****************************************              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
