1. Comment to this post with "I surrender!" and I'll assign you the basis of some tv show idea. (Science fiction show, medical drama, criminal procedure, etc...)
2. Create a cast of characters, including the actors who'd play them
3. Add in any actor photos, character bios and show synopsis that you want.
4. Post to your own journal.

havocthecat gave me the prompt "battlemechs" over a week ago. I am slow. (And I still haven't gotten everyone casted, but that's what the all-mighty flist is for, right?)
I started out thinking that I totally didn't want to make this "live-action Gundam". Then I thought Front Mission, but didn't want it on Earth, but in space. So THEN Ishamelessly stole was inspired by Supreme Commander. But didn't want that crazy-epic scale, because you can't make good TV out of watching an RTS. And I didn't just want land battles, so back in space we go, and put this onto a ship.
Which is leaving me with Nadesico, but without the parody. Um, which is very almost Gundam. *headdesk*
(I think you can also tell I've had far too much practice at writing LARPs and character sheets for casts of up to 50. Because I feel as if I'm doing "Centauri Redux" here. And this comment probably made sense to approximately 4 people.)
[Casting this thing was a chore and a half. I ended up throwing up my hands and casting voice actors, since I know voice actors/seiyuu so much better than live-action. Also a point of contention: Dear Hollywood, plz to be having more Japanese-descent actors. Finding one who fit the criteria I needed is far more difficult than it has any right to be. (I was THIS CLOSE to casting Romi Park, except she's Korean. Damn my OCD!)]
