Television Pilots
Here are some new TV show concepts that No Mustard Only is really jazzed about
The Garies (ABC)
In a world where the "sleep 'n shark" is a popular vacation activity (the sleep n' shark is kind of like a bed and breakfast, only customers are given a nice bedroom room on a boat, and an opportunity to get into a cage and go scuba diving with sharks), the Gary brothers (played by Gary Sinise and Gary Busey), from Gary, Indiana, decide to open their own sleep 'n shark with a twist -- called the "Fart 'n Shark" As put by Busey's character, Gary (that's right, Gary Gary) "the 'Fart 'n Shark' is to sleep 'n sharks what fast food is to restaurants." And the Fart 'n Shark is an underwater hotel that requires a submarine to deliver customers to their rooms. The series will be a drama that focuses primarily on the Gary family and their business.
The Best Cooker (Bravo)
The Best Cooker is an elimination style cooking competition in the same vain as Top Chef. In this competition, the contestants are faced with challenges that require preparation of store-bought pre-packaged meals using only the ingredients supplied in the package, or called for in the directions written on the package. For example, the first challenge is to prepare a box of Kraft Macaroni and cheese using only a pot of boiling water, milk, butter and the ingredients in the box... Good Luck! The show gets a lot of character from the pompous judges who are always yelling at contestants with comments like "this Hot Pocket has too much salt," or "This P.F. Chang's frozen Mongolian beef and broccoli meal needs more pepper," when the contestants are not allowed to use salt or pepper. When a final loser is determined, the judges tell the booted contestant to "go ahead and get all your shit and get out of here."
2 Gay Guys (CBS)
The network bills this show as "the same kind of show as two and a half men." The premise is simple: a homosexual couple lives together in a San Francisco apartment, and are constantly engaged in raunchy, obvious jokes, mostly aimed at how much the characters like to have gay sex - both with each other and other men. In addition to the low-brow humor, the show tries to tackle deeper issues, such as whether it is better to have the bigger penis in a gay relationship, or get to enjoy your partner's larger penis.
WWJD (Fox)
After a botched Apocalypse, the second coming of Jesus Christ is stuck on Earth without anybody knowing his true identity. After generating some identification paperwork, Christ lands a job as a technician in the audio department for the WWJD radio station in Dubuque, Iowa. But when a microphone screw-up causes a conversation between Christ and a depressed co-worker to be accidentally broadcast on-air, ratings explode and the radio station offers Christ his own call-in-advice talk show. In the call-in talk show, Christ doles out advice on the morally correct way to act. We soon find out that the advice Christ doles out on-air is sometimes inconsistent with the way he actually acts. The show explores the complicated question, what would Jesus really do.
Silence is Golden (HBO)
A show about a deaf family that cannot speak. The entire show is in sign-language, designed for the niche-market of deaf people. Though groundbreaking and acclaimed by critics, the show doesn't get huge ratings show because no one can understand it, but HBO can afford to keep the show on for several seasons because it is cheap to make. After season one, the show is offered with "open captioning" which is kind of the opposite of closed captioning, I suppose, letting regular people be able to watch the show. The premise of the show is that the deaf family works as hit men for the mob and have to kill someone in each episode. There is a lot of sex and nudity.
