ESPTv - Watch Dambit!

surfpirate · **Posted:** December 29, 2008 5:06 am

Goofily inspired by comments in this thread, I have created ESPTv.

Here's how it works.
Create a brief TV Guide listing for a television program, series, movie, special, etc., that would be shown on SPTV. See the examples below.
Program listings should be:
- "Buffetty",
- inspired by BN Critters storylines/characters,
and/or
- based on other happenings and posts (past and present) here at BuffettNews.

The ESPTv Network broadcasts just about everything
Games Shows.... The Shirt Dating Game?
Soap Operas.... ??
Classic Sitcoms
.... Leave It To Buffett? (set in the 1950's ... Ward, June, Wally and Jerry Smathers as "the Buffett")
.... The Buffetty Hillbillies? (Jethro becomes a ticket broker. Elly May becomes a security guard at a Critters concert)
Classic TV.... (Flipper, Gunsmoke, whatever)
BN COPS?.... ("Bad Boys, Bad Boys")
Late Night Talk Shows.... ??
A Pojo Weather Channel?
Reality TV.... ??
Variety Shows and Specials.... ??

The possibilities are endless. Let's build a TV Network here in this thread.

Remember ...... Buffetty, BN Crittery or otherwise BuffettNews inspired. :wink:

Why not include some "BN Critters" in this production, too?

Surfpirate would make a great technical advisor to a project like this! :pirate:

With all due respect to Surfpirate, I seriously doubt an internet comic strip based on members of a message board would ever be fodder for a television series, especially when the premise of the show is supposed to be characters from Buffett songs. Now, a cartoon or YouTube series might be a good idea but I kinda doubt BN Critters would work on that level. Then again, you never know. There was that one series which was based on "nothing" that turned out to be pretty successful.

Travel with C-Dawg as he travels the country, going to Jimmy Buffett concerts and other Trop-Rock festivals, finding the best lodging, bars and tailgate parties. Eat your heart out Anthony Bourdain, my show is cooler than yours

Don't forget the "Cooking Show" where we get to make fun of Rachel Ray for calling all PH"s knuckleheads... :lol:

WELCOME BACK BUFFETT

The story of an old beach bum who goes back to his former high school to teach surfing, sailing, and the ins and outs of making boat drinks. Episode one: Buffett is already facing suspension as one of the students uses real tequila to make Margaritas, instead of the imitation bottle. Students are found drunk, laughing, and tailgating in the school parking lot.
Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, 10:00 pm.

You are correct. If anyone has a clean photo of Jen/SGH that I can edit in, I will do so. I wanted to use SGH, but since I didn't have a photo of her to use, I referenced her in the "promos" instead and used a photo that I did have of "another SkoolGrl".
