This Should Be Bigger Than M*A*S*H: Heathers Coming to Television

Heathers, the dark teen comedy about a clique of bitches named Heather, is being adapted as a television series. It’s too bad I’ve only seen it once and can’t remember any dialogue because there’s probably some line that would work as a perfect reference here. I have seen Pulp Fiction enough times to clarify how the TV pilot development process works, however. (They make one show. That show is called  a “pilot.” Then they show that one show…)

Lakeshore Entertainment owns the rights to the franchise. Sez prez Gary Lucchesi, “We had the title and talked about doing a film remake at times. But doing it for TV seemed like a fresh and original idea.” Almost as fresh and original as an actual fresh, orignal idea. Hey, how about an Adventures in Babysitting video game? Boy, the fresh, original ideas are pouring out of me today. I should get a mop.
