(yeah yeah yeah I didn't just think of this because of Colbert and what makes the crazy isn't late-night being too dead for this to be believable or w/e)

It's also have the "hook" to networks of them getting a piece of the hype for shows like Hacks and if it balances time between show-within-a-show segments (and imagine the draw for celebrities guest-starring there as themselves to do interviews and stuff) and backstage drama it could work it's just in my vision every episode would curiously always include a piece of the host character's monologue about stuff ripped from the headlines in the show-within-a-show bits. Fictional shows are harder to censor and you can't go that hard after someone that technically doesn't exist.

I don't know if this is the right sub to ask this as when I discovered I couldn't post a petition I wanted to share around Reddit (and had already posted to the subs relevant to its topic) on that sub, after I posted that petition on r/petition I would have asked this question here but the rules say that's not a sub to complain about petitioning on Reddit and I don't know if this would be seen as that

So inspired by this thread about TV-to-stage adaptations (if one could find a stageable story that takes a normal amount of time for a musical and doesn't require you to have seen the TV show to understand) and this one about if the success of the Schmigadoon Broadway musical could help save the TV show, that got me thinking about what non-musical cancelled shows could be stageworthy enough to backdoor into reviving the show (like a Firefly musical would be cool but I doubt it'd lead to more live-action Firefly content and no I'm not just saying this because two of my favorite cancelled shows I'm trying to fight for, So Help Me Todd and Brilliant Minds have Broadway stars playing major characters (those being Skylar Astin and Donna Murphy respectively)). As I even think this could work for shows I have no emotional attachment to like NBC's other unfortunate-cancellation-this-year, cheerleading sitcom Stumble (Kristin Chenoweth's already a part of that cast so maybe like Jane Krakowski in the lead of a hypothetical Stumble musical if Kristin could reprise her part and I'm not sure who could play the Taran Killam part if he himself would be unavailable, maybe some guy from Avenue Q or something)

So which cancelled shows do you think could work as stage musicals well enough that that could bring the show back?

Murder isn't just ending a life (and it also has no component relating to the justness of the action or the innocence of the victim), for ending a life to be murder not only does the act need to be illegal (meaning conveniently abortion would be closer to counting as murder in places where it's already banned) but there needs to be malice aforethought (which, no, isn't just "an action that harms someone had planning put into it" or accidentally running over someone with your car would be murder if you weren't going on a spontaneous road trip and actually planned to drive wherever you were driving) to make it murder not manslaughter

I used to frequently debate people on there and noticed in the months before it went under it devolving into a lot of anti-trans argumentation which should piss off both sides because even those who are anti-trans themselves would probably get bored at it always being the same old shit including e.g. every Pride Month posting the same picture of that little girl and the guys in the pup masks as if it had just been taken at some pride parade that year.

Meanwhile I see takes that make me wish it was active and saner to post there like "David Lynch is a secret conservative because he didn't change his last name" or "fluff fanfic is a sign of fascism" or "first-person POV is intended to be reader POV so don't read a first-person-POV book where the narrator-character does things you wouldn't do in that situation"
