...what would it be like?

If I was the main character it would probably be a wacky sitcom.

If I wasn't, it would be a drama with me as one of the comic relief characters.

And you?

My show would either be banned, or air VERY late on AMC or Channel4.

It would hopefully be like Spaced but probably be like The Inbetweeners.
And I don't even like the Inbetweeners.

I feel sorry for anyone living in The Inbetweeners.

Actually I could see part of my life being shown as one of those hard hitting three part dramas the BBC show every now and then, but it would stir up one hell of a ruckus for reasons many of you do not need explaining.

I'd rather my life not be an exploration of a subculture though; there's far more to my life than that. But, alas, Everyone Remembers the Stripper.

Cancelled after the pilot, because even According To Jim is more entertaining.

That looks like the most generic show ever.

It would be a philosophical talk show or documentary...

Mine would be one of those shows that make you doubt your perception of reality...

I suspect it would be a rom-com of some sort, but it would also be remarkably dull.

I guess we could go... wherever we please.

If I was the main character, it'd play out like a comedy, with some SRS drama as well. Almost a Comedy-centred Soap with drama on the side.

If I was secondary, it'd probably be High-school drama still. With me as one of the extras.

If it was all of my life,regardless of me as the main character or not,it would suffer serious Mood Whiplash

It'd be Denser and Wackier alongside Darker and Edgier if only my experiences in Middle School were accounted for. It'd pretty much be just like Family Guy is nowadays,with all the jerks representing Peter and Lois,and my sister would be Meg Griffin,and I'd probably be some cross between Cleveland,Stewie,and Brian

If it was Elementary School it'd just be Darker and Edgier

If High School,it'd suffer serious Mood Whiplash,with freshman year being very wacky,Sophomore year being Grimdark,Junior year a little easier,and Senior year with all the Senioritis would be Lighter and Softer,well except for math class episodes

If it was last year and I was main character,it'd be very Kafka-like and decay into Denser and Wackier. If I wasn't the main character,it'd be a comedic adventure and I'd be one of The Smart Guy s in the gang.

If I wasn't a main character I would almost certainly be a very minor bit part who turns up to be inappropriate.

Not sure, but it would have to be abridged to be entertaining.

Drama about a quiet girl and the pain and loneness she goes through...who still manages to keep a upbeat personality under a stoic wrap.

It would be very dull and devoid of any entertainment.

EDIT: ...though, when I think about, it might have a good soundtrack.

Just realised, there'd be a hell of a lot of Historical and philosophical references inside it.

And nothing happens.

I don't have a wife yet.
