The Prophet---A comedy featuring a man who claims to be a "Prophet" and all his zany predictions!
Unmarried With Children----A young teen's life is torn apart when she gets impregnated by a Jehovah's Witness living still "in the closet".
The Pioneers----a western that takes place in the late 1800s about guns and God.
The GB---this reality show examines the lives of a dozen elderly men and their diaper cleaning assistants.
New York Squares---a gameshow featuring some of NYC's funniest ministers. (Center square is Sam Herd :))
ALMOST ARMAGEDDON- a mockumentary of beliefs with goofy talks from the platform and goofy
WT articles being answered by the paragraphs (skip the readings), then the groups that go to
lunch afterward and discuss their undying acceptance of the goofy beliefs.
SPREADING THE WORD (or SPREADING THE TRUTH)- would follow fictional publishers from door-to-
door, focusing heavily on the pioneers. It would include the shocking things they see and hear
and the reactions at the doors. To stay interesting, the plots could include adventures when
the publishers discover crimes being commited in households and they could occasionally stumble
across a porn movie recording or prevent a robbery at the coffee shop they frequent.
Quickbuilds- Could be similar to EXTREME MAKEOVER. Could even steal their name and call it
EXTREME MAKEOVERS- KINGDOM HALL EDITION. A JW crew with the backing of rich dedicated JW's and
the television network would travel the country deciding what congregation was worthy of
a new Kingdom Hall on their old property site. They could showcase the lives of the various
witnesses, especially the devout crazy ones and the poor wheelchair-bound. There could be many
opportunities for the crew to say, "We have to get these folks some help so they can get back out
into the preaching work." They will send the congregants to "Bethel" instead of Disney World for
a week. They will tour Patterson and preach with Bethelites for a week and stay in their homes.
Neighbors at home will be cheering when the Hall is destroyed, and the crew will have a hard time
getting neighbors to pitch in each week to put up the new hall, so they will tell them how it will increase
property values or expand the parking lot and get the JW's off their lawns when parking. During
Sweeps-weeks, they can take on an Assembly Hall.
TOUCHED BY A CIRCUIT OVERSEER- A traveling overseer has a different adventure every week with a new
congregation (or returns to previous congregations, but a different adventure comes up). To make it a
strange SITCOM, the C.O. is really an angel sent to really make a difference in the lives of the JW's.
He tries to wake up some individuals in the cong. that the WTS isn't really the truth, but he has to do it
in such a way that nobody reports him to "Mother." His success is very low, but some come out. The
most interesting part will be how the elders meetings go. The C.O. will be trying to ask the elders to
view the scriptural thoughts on love and mildness and the elders will keep saying, "The Watchtower
says... [completely different than you are saying]."
"The Inner Sanctum."
The story of a group of 9 men that control a worldwide impire of real estate funded by volunteers. Religion, scandal, politics, control, tittilation. It's all there.
GREEN HANDSHAKES- follows a different Bethelite (sometimes a GB member) to assemblies and
conventions and occasionally to troubled Kingdom Halls. The Bethelites are just silly humans
promoting the org. using sales seminars and things they read on the internet, and they cannot
hardly believe how the locals grovel at them and want to feed them dinner all the time and the
single ones get offers from "single" sisters just as if they were rockstars. Meanwhile, the
green handshakes always make the difference. Somehow, the Bethelite is questioning the org.
or got some publisher pregnant or needs hush money for something. The green handshake
typically just makes the difference to keep the Bethelite in the org. or from being DF'ed.
Touched By A Circuit Overseer----I thought it was going to be about a CO who improperly touches different ones in a naughty way.
I WANT YOUR BLOOD----a melodramatic thriller about vampires who prey upon easy victims until they tangle with a Jehovah's Witness
Perhaps we could get Marjoe Gortner to produce.
I see a much "darker" approach to this series than Big Love. You have the doomsday cult aspect which could certainly be developed, along with the "pyramid" history.
