I tried to be as absurd as I could. ;)

Suggestions are welcome.

Great stuff. A lot of these sound really interesting. 😄

There is a similar poll about crime shows, but it's probably OK if there is overlap: https://www.imdb.com/poll/Fg1Fk523pXY/

I think 35 options are too many, if we consider that people tend to lose interest when they have to read. Maybe you could remove some, or split the list in two.

You're right, I'll split it in two lists, each having 20 options (I'll add five more to the second list later).

Nice, thanks.

I noticed you don't have any Romance shows. I don't know if this is any good, but FYC:

Two people from different countries find love in an internet community and decide to meet in person

Thanks, I'll add it, but I changed the story a little bit (two people find love in an internet community, but the woman is actually an elderly man and it all turns out to be a scam). 

I'll add some more romance shows, thanks for pointing out the aren't any.

I didn't mean there were no existing Romance shows, I meant the new storylines you made up - that's why I suggested one.

Personally, I'm not a fan of the scam aspect, but it's your choice. If you want to keep it maybe you should use another title, like Skam.

I also think the Black Mirror story might be too weird and creepy. I would remove it.

You're right, I removed the Black Mirror story. I also replaced the scam story with the romance story, since there are no romance storylines, as you said.

Thank you.

Please correct:

Which of these alternate storylines for famous TV series would most intrigue you?

Could you please add "from different countries" in the Community entry?

I just think it would make it more interesting and different from movies like You've Got Mail and Love, Simon.

Good point, it would definitely make it more interesting (and different from the movies)! Added.

Thanks.

I don't think you need a "None of them" option for this poll.

So I've narrowed it down to Band of Brothers and Six Feet Under, but I seriously can't decide between them. I think I'll have to flip a coin. 😄

I also had to narrow it down to Six Feet Under and The Big Bang Theory! I chose The Big Bang Theory at the end, but it's so hard to choose just one. :)

Here are a few ideas for part 3:

 (and I hope you didn't use any of these titles in your other parts)

After baseball pitcher Logan breaks his arm, he begins training in track events to try to seek his fame as an Olympic runner in the hurdles races.

Family Affair:  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0059982/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_3_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_family%20affair

A situation comedy where the Davis husband and wife are having affairs with the husband and wife of the Patterson family.  The Davis butler is also having an affair with the Patterson maid.

Scarecrow and Mrs. King:  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085088/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_scarecrow%20and%20mr

A fantasy tail from the land of Oz.  The queen of Munchkinland carries on a secret romance withe the not-very-intelligent Scarecrow, unbeknownst to Dorothy, the Tin Man, the Cowardly Lion, Toto, and the Munchkin King.

The Facts of Life:  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078610/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_6_nm_2_in_0_q_the%20Facts%20of%20Life

Great suggestions, thanks! I'll add them tomorrow.

Great to hear you're out of hospital! I hope you got a burger and fries (at some point)!

I would suggest removing Twin Peaks and Gilmore Girls to make room for J-man's suggestions. Perhaps also Invincible since you have a similar story in Part 2 (Fleabag).

But I guess it's OK if you exceed 20 options.

Removed Twin Peaks, Gilmore Girls and Invincible. Added How the West was Won, Logan's Run, Family Affair and The Facts of Life. I excluded Scarecrow and Mrs. King since I already have Oz in part 1 and the alternate storyline happens in the land of Oz.

Since this is the last part, it has 21 options. :)
