Geez what's next, a Breaking Bad show without Walter White or Jesse?

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 22 points 11 months ago

Walt and Jesse are there but there's no drugs.

Breaking Bad reimagined this time it's about the bad breakup between Walter and Jesse stretched into 8 seasons.

All while living in constant fear, for no particular reason, of a random guy who owns a small fried chicken restaurant chain.

Family Guy without the family... or the guy

Tucker Carlson without racism?

Or an All in the Family show with no Archie Bunker? Or a Happy Days show with no Fonzie or Richie Cunningham?

At this rate they're going to be making Star Wars stuff without Darth Vader or Luke Skywalker.

The irony here is that it could very well be much better than whatever Disney did, especially if you consider some of the stuff from the 90s and 2000s games, like Dark Forces or Knights of the Old Republic.

Hey, that last one could work as a movie if not a TV series. Chuck Cunningham comes back.

They could reshoot a few scenes from the TV show with lookalike actors, have Chuck play out his final bit, and then a few more scenes from the show that make it clear that no-one remembers him. At all.

Now, think about it: Extra-terrestrial aliens are canon in Happy Days (Mork and Mindy was a spin-off), so it's possibly some other alien race abducted Chuck and caused everyone to forget he ever existed.

Depending on what time period he comes back to, this could be played for laughs or for existential horror.
