Rocker, Texas Ranger

Okay, so we came up with this idea, see? It's called Rocker, Texas Ranger.

Rocker, Texas Ranger is a teen serial drama, similar to the O.C., only the C stands for Comedy, and the O stands for Outrageous.

• Rocker is in high school and is a drummer, only not a good drummer.
• Throughout the story, Rocker meets up with fellow high school bands played by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Fall Out Boy, and Aerosmith (whom he finally joins at the end of season 1)
• Rocker's father, Dad (Jason Bateman), is a single parent and also the high school counsellor
• Rocker has issues with his father, but seeks help from the only person available: the counsellor.
• Rocker has a long time girlfriend, but is once tempted by the Temptress.

If you're trying to get an idea of how these characters would be played, think Outrageous. After all, it stars The Rock as a high school sophomore.




The rant part of this. It took us a twenty minute walk to school to devise this travesty/masterpiece. "No one would ever watch this show!" you might say, but think about this: Hannah Montana. That Zack and Cody show. Family Guy. CSI (name your version). American Dad (Family Guy II, or The Other Family Guy). These shows range from not great to absolute shit, but still they are on the air.

Then think about shows like Firefly, Mission Hill, Clone High, Undergrads, Futurama, Arrested Development, Dead Like Me, Quantum Leap, Clerks... the list goes on! Great shows that weren't given a chance to go on.

Finally, I want you to think about the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Boy Meets World, Home Improvement, That 70's Show (early seasons), and Seinfeld. Remember shows that were about kids and teenagers and absolutely nothing? Those were the good old days.

I'm not saying that Rocker, Texas Ranger is TV gold (only it is! How could you go wrong?), but it took us 20 minutes to come up with that. I realize that there is a severe issue with attempting to sign all of these people, but you could take the actors and extrapolate characters from them and wham-bam, you have a story.
