>turn Oliver Twist from a young boy into a young girl
>let's make her sexy
The hell kind of Toddlers & Tiaras bullshit is this?

(Or is it IN Tiaras? I never actually bothered to find out.)

Sooooo...are female orphan that gets fucked and raped by everybody in the 1800 century?

Bravo NBC!

Why not adapt DeSade and be done with?

I wonder how they'll handle the portrayal of Fagin.

Or if maybe they're only changing it around so they can find a way to avoid portraying him like he was in the actual story.

Wtf I hate Oliver Twist now

Shes also going to be a black sassy woman. Or another cute indian/arab.

Wnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnbc

This is literally the worse generation of the history of the world.
We are living the death of creativity.

literally who is this being aimed at?

fucking pedos?

Last time they had a black orphan girl it was a flop.

a sexy 11 year old Olive Twist? mmmm i got a big stiff boner!

I've seen these exact same replies to this exact thread before. Is this some kind of bot or am I just that drunk?

so is this rock bottom for American TV or is their room to go lower....

muhhh femuleee

if you wanna have a female lead in Oliver Twist then sure but why does it have to be sexy? Seems like something that you wouldn't put in there, at all.

This is like those parody's of the slick 80's businessmen coming up with stupid bullshit marketing angles for their products.

I clicked on the roadsigns to prove i'm not a robot, so i guess you're probably drunk.

sory i meant 21 year old

this kinda feels like some writer tried to pitch this to execs but execs felt like it couldn't make it on its own two feet

so fuck it lets add the OT name to it and see how many rubes we can trick

god after typing that all out that sounds retarded, if that was the case who the fuck would imagine this was a good idea?

Its gotten to the point where you can't tell what is and isn't daily autism spam.

Suicide is the only option.

Final, a show for "us"

Come on lads, lets cast oliviera.

yay the cunnylution has begun!

lmao the execs are just straight up smoking tons of crack at this point aren't they??

From the description they provided, it actually sounds semi-interesting. Why does it need to be Oliver Twist though?

>It will star a struggling, twenty-something female (Twist) who “finally finds a true sense of family in a strange group of talented outcasts who use their unique skills to take down wealthy criminals.”

The lead will be an adult. I know you pedos are deluded but even you can't be that stupid too?

Johnny Sequoyah
mmmm

>The lead will be an adult.
then how the fuck is it oliver twist?

isn't that shit about orphan children?

whats it going to be about? some lazy woman who prostitutes herself instead of getting a real job?

I hope it's also a cop procedural drama.

I Don't Know What You're Talking About, user. You Must Be Drunk, Yes.

Now Let's All Go Back To Our Human Activities, And Forget This Ever Happened.

>NBC
>show
>news
>anything in general

Bar-none the worst of the old big-three broadcasters. They haven't been relevant in fucking more than 20 years at this point.

>Hey I have an idea! Let's just remake this old thing, but, wait for it, we genderbend everyone!
>Fuck that is a great idea
>Someone get on that RIGHT NOW

Seriously, why does nobody has a fucking original idea anymore?

Well that's a relief. In that case this sounds like a shit idea. Do kid's today even know who Oliver Twist is? Fuck I'm in my mid-twenties and I barely even know.

Who the shit is this supposed to appeal to?

Wasn't that Leverage?

see

Erm oliver is an young orphaned child

I hope grace get a role as the artful dodger

child this is fucking America

first off no way in shit are they going to let a minor be sexualized male or female on basic cable

and second aside from Stranger Thing when was the last time their was a show headlined by a minor on prime time on a major network?

Even semi original ideas get shat on by the public even more quickly these days. Look at a movie like Kubo and the Two Strings. Yeah, it borrows on old Japanese legends and such but it was a decently original blend and stop motion.

Bombing harder than everything else in theaters. Poised to make worse than some of the studio's previous entries which were even stranger and more off the wall.

Trends seem to indicate people want LESS original ideas and more copy-pasting.

>Olivia Twist

You'd do ANYTHING, you say?

>no way in shit are they going to let a minor be sexualized
what are every teenage singer in the past 18 years?

fuck, everyone was up Brittany's ass with her first music video. and she was 16.

Guys, its already been confirmed the lead is in there 20s.

See

Not surprising, NBC has been the Sony pictures of television for the past few years now.

all the other shit aside the problem with a modern day setting is Oliver is supposed to by naive as fuck and border line retarded

how is that going to work for a lead?

or is every week going to be an exercise in how hard we will cringe at her bad choices?

that isn't TV, that is concerts and music

concerts and music you have to pay especially and specifically for the thing

tv is generic and broad spectrum and held to stricter standards because of its generacy

Pretty good twist on the formula if you ask me

I don't what Leverage is about.

MTV and VH1 aren't TV?

Rolling stone magazine isn't public media?

cmon.

Well shit then.

It was about a team of thieves and con men who targeted criminals and immoral shits on behalf of the little guy

was pretty decent in a campy kind of way and had a good 5 year run

also had a couple of qts in the main cast

>MTV & VH1

they still do things related to music?

Way to kill a man's dream user

Bet you it's going to be Olivia Twist

very rarely.

biggest thing mtv does is their awards shows.

i jerked off to the sexy computer nerd's sexy my in my place photoshoot so bad she was so sexy

I think you're thinking of a different show

the computer nerd in leverage was a dude, and he was black

"because I rebel"

There fucking can't be

...but we all know there is

>my in my place photoshoot so bad

Freaks and Geeks and it was great so of course they cancelled it

Don't watch it. Problem solved.

Suddenly "you want some more?" has a whole new meaning

maybe she was autistic or something

That's not solving, that's ignoring

Is her character supposed to be a young Princess Leia secretly in the movie. Because she looks exactly like a young Carrie Fisher.

no.

>Sexy
>Oliver Twist
NBC what the fuck is this

The alt right rises

>Hey, you know what's sexy?
>Orphans?
>Orphans

I want to fuck their tight little cunnys(cunts) like the dirty pedophile that i am

is this that mainstreaming of pedophilia shit I've been hearing about?

I always wanted to fuck oliver twist right in his pussy

They do the female-led thing for feminism points but always have to make it sexy. Isn't that a bit counter-intuitive?

That's only a thing on the internet

>Implying they actually care about feminism
>Implying they're not just pandering
>Implying people aren't too stupid to eat it up anyway

I don't know, I've been hearing increasingly more about far left progressives advocating for the "needs of pedophiles"

Which middle eastern religion is behind this? The kid-diddling Muslims or the Jews or the kid-diddling Catholics?

Hearing more...on the internet

>early 2000s
>prom
>protagonist goes inside with his long childhood friend as date
>"Starry Eyed Surprise" starts playing

What the fuck, I thought I made a new thread.

on the news too

besides what do you hear that ISN'T from the internet these days

don't get so worked up. female-driven shows are going to be around for a while

>Mary + Jane
>Jordan and Paige, two twenty-something best friends, run an all-female weed delivery service in Los Angeles.

>Pitch
>Set in the confines of Major League Baseball, Pitch focuses on a young female pitcher, Ginny Baker, who becomes the first woman to play in the league, when she is chosen to play for the San Diego Padres.

>Van Helsing
>Vanessa Helsing, distant relative of famous vampire hunter Abraham Van Helsing, is resurrected only to find that vampires have taken over the world. She is humanity's last hope to lead an offensive to take back what has been lost.

>Better Things
>An actress raises her three daughters while juggling the pressures of working in Hollywood and being a single parent.

>Loosely Exactly Nicole
>Nicole Byer is living the Hollywood dream. Well, Hollywood adjacent - the deep valley to be precise - and it's not so much a dream but a struggle. With the help of her two besties, Veronica and Devin, Nicole will have to navigate the 'real world' as she endures humiliating auditions, unpaid electric bills and the romantic battlefield that is Tinder, all while slowly, but surely, finding her voice as a comedian.

This reminds me of Jordyn Jones. Only 16 years old yet all her music videos are very sexual with the way she dances, what she wears.

It is obvious that she is made specifically for pedophiles.

If you do a google search for her you will be surprised how much sexual like images you can find of her in bikinis etc.

What the...

>Literally stealing a name to try and piggy back your shitty show

There should be laws against adaptations that veer too far from the source material.

>Not knowing what a pedophile is
>Thinking people stop being attracted to sexually prime girls on a physical level just because they're young
>Being blatantly underage and or a retard

>Make a show called Van Helsing
>Main protagonist is Vanessa
So why not call it Vanessa? Because then people won't watch it?

Are they trying to make this a fucking porn parody?

>Pwease sir may I have some more ;)

yea but 3/5 of those have a chance of being decent

this Olivia Twist shit thought...christ what the fuck were they thinking?

Hebephillia then. I.e. the attraction of young teens.

It is obvious that Hollywood likes to make content for hebephiles

who would you cast as Olivia Twist in you porn parody

hard mode: no Riley Reid

Once more, jews pushing their agenda. They're really are the devil.

I hope so. Also does anybody else think that Chloe would be perfect for this role?

So will it all be about a group of orphan girls?

How the fuck are they going to make this "sexy"?

I dont get it

>Again implying that everyone isn't a hebephile on some level

You're acting like the sexual exploitation of young girls is new when it's like the oldest thing in existence

I'm pretty sure NBC is just producing whatever the fuck while they wait for broadcast television to finally die

they'll have to seduce their marks

calling it now the story will be Olivia is in love with the Artful Dodger but then also falls for her mark and her having to choose who to stick with

>If that weren’t enough, NBC will set the story around a 20-something young woman who “finally finds a true sense of family in a strange group of talented outcasts who use their unique skills to take down wealthy criminals.”

PEDOS BTFO

HAHA 20 YEAR OLD GIRL
flavorwire.com/588610/nbc-wants-to-make-the-dickens-classic-oliver-twist-sexy

Piper Perri

>20-something young woman
wait what
I've never read Oliver Twist but I don't think you can be in your 20s and live in an orphanage

better than some weird pedo shit though

And yet if you have a nude of a 16 year old girl, you will be sent to prison for 20 years no parol

>better than some weird pedo shit though
I agree but this makes no fucking sense at all. Exactly you cannot be an orphan then. So WHY call it Oliver or Olivia Twist?

Obviously they are creating a story that has nothing to do with the original so why not just rename it to be something else?

... oh right because then no one will watch it because it will be original and Americans are so scared to make original content that no one knows about

What about those nudes of Brooke Shields that a judge ruled that they are art and totally not CP?

>wtf are you doing NBC?

forcing more cultural marxist propaganda down our throats

>oh right because then no one will watch it because it will be original and Americans are so scared to make original content that no one knows about
also because no one here reads, I'm better read than a lot of people here and I still haven't read it

Well that was just an example of a judge being a total bro

People who unironically claim Brooke Shields wasn't hot at every age are liars
