    They say everyone has a book in them, well maybe that applies for ideas for tv spin-offs of existing shows. So let's hear it AH! :D


    My idea is set in the Star Trek TNG universe. It a gritty reboot and follows the early days of the rise of the Maquis. In particular the focus will be on some Israeli settlers in the DMZ.

    How about a crime show where someone who isn't a 'tec solves crimes.

    A HBO James Bond TV series set in the 1960's aka Mad Men Stylings. Michael Fassbender running around Prague or some dumpy Eastern European locale doing actual espionage.
    The cars, music and women, space race all set in the Cold War/Iron Curtain


    A HBO series for the World War Z, Big Budget, every episode an interview, flashbacks and recounting tales from all angles 10 years after the war.

    Would do gangbusters.

    Family of the 7 drunks.

    Endless entertainment from the heroic & hilarious exploits of a family wasting their lives drinking cans & naggins.

    Hugely entertaining & paid for by Diageo Ireland.

    Be drink aware. The family of the 7 drunks are certainly aware of drink & we salute them!

    Mine is about a corrupt government that is also completely incompetent. They make secret deals with banks and help bail their friends out of dodgy situations......oh wait......

    The Discovery Channel's "Stupid Fat Rednecks:" each week, cameras follow stupid fat rednecks randomly selected in the street. Laugh at them!

    The Xtra Hate Factor*: special editions of the popular talent show consisting solely of socially maladjusted individuals being verbally abused by (mostly) attractive millionaires. ITV bosses promise that actual bile will be vented on more than one occasion.
    *contains no singing

    RTE are getting desperate. I can see the brainstorming session now-
    "We'll ask after hours, something will come up!"
    "It'll never work Tristan, Love:Hate was it. All downhill from here on in..."
    "Yeah.......still, worth a lash.."

    West of Ireland science teacher comes up with an ingenious plan to develop a new brand of blue stout after seeing one of his former Leaving Cert students leave a Debs party carrying a keg.
    What ensues is a thought provoking, sometimes violent journey through back street shebeens and late night chipshops (MightyMacs?) of ill repute, while our anti-hero, working through his own demons, spirals into ever worsening acts of depravity.
    All the time carrying out his secret life under the nose of his brother-in-law....
    the local Parish Priest.
    I have a working title of "Breaking Wind"

    "The Loose Canon"

    3 priests are sent incognito to Coppers to see who can get the most shifts. Double points for getting the ride. The priest with the most points is declared "The Loose Canon" and wins a makeover for their parish church.



    "Bash The Bishop"

    3 bishops are sent ingognito...

    I do believe at some point in A Song of Ice and Fire there was a zombie bear, that definitely deserved a spin off

    A good Catholic fellow, from Derry preferably goes travelling and when he is in the USA he is having a drink in a pub when a man beside him at the bar hands him a business card and asks him to give him a call as he thinks he could be an asset to his company, he is an adult film producer of a high end adult film company known worldwide, the business card didn't say what sort of movies he produced, the fellow decides to go have a chat with him and when he walks into the office there are 2 beautiful young ladies sitting on the sofa, the producer tells him to take a seat (next to the ladies) and the Catholic fellow is not sure what the ladies are doing there, as the meeting progresses the ladies rub their hands on his leg and to cut a long story short he has intercourse with both of them, it turns out that the room was full of hidden cameras and when he is finished having sex with them the producer tells him that he could pay him $1000 if he lets the session be uploading onto the company website, he agrees. The fellow becomes a sensation in the USA amongst the porn community and the Catholic Church find out over in the emerald isle and the highest figures in the church organise to attack the porn industry by force, they gather priests and get a ship to the USA full of guns and carry out shootings throughout porn film sets. So that is how it would start.

    "I'm an adult get me out of here - the follow up!", a series that finds out what happened to those saps who were "persuaded" to buy at the peak of the market.

    Could be a real eyeopener.
