Her boss is going to be quite the "witch"... bet she can't swim.

 

[Slayven]

Worked for Rita Replusa and Goldar.

 

[Kurdel]

Can't wait to see the Annie cop procedural.

 

[FyreWulff]

original story characters from Kansas and Omaha

place it in New York City

sounds legit

 

[PK Strawstorm]

"Higher-than-high concept"??

I guess, if you mean middle schooler who watches Dr. Quinn with his grandma and accidentally fell into her medical marijuana stash.

 

[Novid]

perfect. just perfect.

 

[slightconfuse]

This sounds crazy.

 

[McLovin]

Heh..heh..hehahaHaHa HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I'd imagine that NYC is the stand in for Oz, and the Dorothy will be from Kansas. Typical fish out of water thing.

 

[Hsieh]

What's the big deal about adapting Wizard of Oz into a medical drama, nobody complained about how House was Sherlock Holmes adapted into a medical drama.

 

[PaulloDEC]

This sounds like pretty much the worst thing I've ever heard.

"Hey guys, I had this great idea! We basically do two terrible things at once; first we abuse and exploit one of the most beloved fantasy stories ever conceived, and secondly we create another terrible medical soap for an already crowded market! It's genius, right?"

 

[hosannainexcelsis]

Networks are just pulling slips of paper from a hat now.

Good point, it's just that it gets irritating when stories get relocated to NYC all. the. damn. time.

Goodnight, Moon as a serial killer drama.

 

[FyreWulff]

Goodnight, Moon as a serial killer drama.

This Summer

*FRWOOABOOOM*

Say goodnight to your seat

*CAR CHASE*

Because you'll only need the edge

"Detective Moon!"

*inception horn*

*pulse in shot of cocked gun aimed at screen*

Goodnight, Moon

 

[Samus4145]

Don't care what network it is, someone fucking bring back 666 Park ave.

 

[Mario]

Sounds like a terrible idea trying to riff on the Grimm and Once Upon a Time TV series'. Seems like the links to the Wizard of Oz story are a huge stretch.

I'd rather watch a medical drama or "cop" show set in Oz itself.

That sounds much better.

Will Dorothy become a meatball surgeon?

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Lolwut

 

[squidyj]

Ham on Rye as a teen comedy on ABC Family, it's about his relationship with his dad, right?

 

[IdreamofHIME]

This is good idea. Hope HBO copies it and we see a CSI type show set in Westeros.

 

[IsntChrisL]

Well this is sure to light up the charts for the 2 weeks it's on the air!

INT. HOSPITAL

We see a grizzly, bearded man being rushed into an operating room on a gurney. Shakey-cam. Moody lighting. Doctors hastily pull on gloves and masks, and scramble for equipment. Amidst the chaos, the head surgeon walks in, followed by his young assistant DOROTHY.

SURGEON:

What do we have?

NURSE LOLLIPOP:

This man... his heart is missing.

SURGEON:

Scalpel.

DOROTHY watches from behind the surgeon's back, wide-eyed, as he makes a quick incision in the hairy man's chest. She whimpers a bit and turns her head. CUT TO - the man's empty chest, filled with gore but no heart. The surgeon casts DOROTHY a stern look.

SURGEON:

Toughen up. You're not at KU Med anymore.

 

[DXB-KNIGHT]

This sounds like an unfunny modern Simpsons joke

It's not lupus, Toto.

 

[Darkmakaimura]

Silhouette of a doctor treating a patient who has pulled one of those hospital curtains around him. Whispers from various staff that it's famous Dr. so-and-so. Dorothy walks by and asks who it is. "Pay no attention to the doctor behind the curtain."

Spoiler

Maybe it's Doctor Oz! Get it!?.... :\
