Pick your TV sitcom dream team

The extended Easter round can be the cause of much thumb twiddling as DT coaches are forced to wait until Tuesday to praise/trash their team's performance. In the meantime, DT addicts can get their fix with this: the Coles Farmland $2 Cheesecake sitcom dream team competition!

  5. Oh this is too easy.

    Obviously any sitcom needs a “fish out of water” scenario, and there are few stranger fish than cat-munching illegal asylum-seeker

    Alf (Alf) $1.4m

    I’m working on a budget here, I’m thinking community station, Channel 31, so the Melmacian master of Mirth is right on the money.

    At $200k

    Joey Tribbiani (Joey)

    with his trademark wide-eyed “comic” spin is a shoe-in crowd-puller.
    What a couple he’ll make along with seminal pie-eating slob-next-door

    Gerald "Nudge" Noritis (Hey Dad!) $1.8m

    He’s pricey, but boy he tells it straight. Nudge is our guru, keeping it real.

    One word for

    Blanche Devereaux (The Golden Girls) $0.2m

    Hot. Old, cold and full of mould, but again, a bargain buy for over-the-hill-thrillseekers. Talk about a sure thing for a cup of Horlicks and a guaranteed prime 6.30 slot.

    Agent 99 (Get Smart) $0.8m

    Is cheap, and now I’ve got Blanche, I don’t need a love interest.

    And well, who hasn’t picked
    Michael Jackson (The Simpsons) $0.8m?

    When it comes to kids, you can’t beat the pulling power of the Moonwalking Molester.

    All for $5.2 million – a cool $6.8 million under budget. Now there’s a challenge for readers.

  6. Unfathomable. You knew the Blackadder folks were in the mix purely to tempt you, didn't you Pete?

  7. and you nearly had me.

    except I couldn't pick Bob "strange name for a girl" as my love interest

    and what with guest stars the calibre of Mad Gerald, Three-Fingered Pete and Sean the Irish Bastard... well, how do you put a price on that kind of quality?
