High Concept: "
You may have noticed that there are a whole bunch of 'celebrity poker' shows on television these days, where a group of famous people sit around playing cards and being snarky at each other, and they film the whole thing. I can't imagine too many things more boring than watching someone else play cards, but I guess fishing has a rich TV history too... Anyway, I have an idea, and hopefully one of my many readers in the entertainment industry will make it a reality:
Celebrity Dungeons and Dragons.
I want to see a TV show where the flying camera crane zips around the table where Wil Wheaton, Puff Daddy, Michael Madsen, and Lindsay Lohan play D&D. I would totally watch that.
'Yo, I'm-a gonna get all up in that orc's face with my Magic Missile. Jack you up, orc!' Then then announcers banter, 'oh, Magic Missle! A bold choice, he might need that later. Here comes the roll...'
It would be GLORIOUS."

Update: Wil's response here ( as mentioned on BoingBoing ).
Between that, Pictures of Wil wrestling Barney, and Patrick Stewart's fantastic voice acting on both American Dad & The Family Guy last Sunday (btw between which and the late Gargoyles series means that everybody from STNG has now done cartoon voice acting), I think I'm officially scarred for life.
Speaking of Patrick Stewart, Bambi II ?
Also, The Picard Song.
[Correction: Thanks to Mr. Stuart for pointing out that Wil has done a bunch of voice acting, from "Secret of Nimh" to "Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!"
