Here's a little game I came up with (and if it should be in Shared Worlds or ASB, please move it). The jist is I'll post an actor or actress and add a blurb about a show they were on in this alternate world. The next person will put a new actor in that character's spot on their RL show during the time.
For example...
Allison Janney on Law & Order (1993-2007)
Allison Janney was cast as Claire Kincaid on NBC's Law & Order as an Assistant District Attorney. When the Head Prosecutor, Ben Stone, left his role Janney's character was promoted where she played a passionate prosecutor seeking to put justice first. She left the show in 2007 after her and NBC executives were unable to make a deal on her contract.
So now someone will need to pick an actress or actor and replace the character of CJ Cregg on The West Wing. You can change the gender of roles in certain situations because otherwise we're going to have a bunch of actresses and now actors.
