Have you ever wondered what the worst possible movie to turn into a tv programme would be? If you're thinking a No Country For Old Man romcom sitcom, in which the main protagonist explores the humour and hardships of dating... and murdering and getting his hair cut etc etc. Then you'd be wrong. Because that would be the best.

Can you vaguely remember the My Big Fat Greek Wedding movie and the following My Big Fat Greek Life sitcom? Not that anyone has seen it (the sitcom), because it has faded into complete obscurity. And not cool indie street cred obscurity. The normal kind of obscurity. The wars we didn't win kind.
But basically, I'm thinking a Karate Kid based tv show. Can you imagine how truly terrible that would be? From now on, the concept of weekly 30 minute episodes about non-Asian kid learning some Asian martial art in order to stand up to bullies is what I'll be inciting if I ever want to be tried for heinous acts by a war crime tribunal.
