A Christmas gift. Here's a treatment for a TV sitcom. It's yours if you want it:

[MineralMan]

Working Title: Awkward Steps

Type of Show: Situation Comedy

Scenario:
A high-school aged boy and girl have been dating each other exclusively for over a year. The boy's mother is a recent widow. The girl's father is divorced. Mom and Dad meet while chaperoning a school dance. They hit it off and an adult romance begins. After six months, Dad proposes to Mom and she accepts. Their children, who are very attached to each other and are, well, not abstinent, are first excited about the upcoming marriage. Until, of course, they realize that their own relationship is about to change drastically.

Hilarity ensues, episode after episode...

I'm not interested in pursuing this, so here it is:

1. Let's make the divorced husband Dexter the blood spatter specialist from Showtime,

and they live in Washington, DC, and every week someone from the Trump White House staff disappears, only to be disposed of in plastic bags off the side of Dexter's boat in the Potomac River.

How's that for a subplot?

2. Too complicated, I think. Episodic TV shows have gotten simpler and simpler.

Just my opinion, of course. However, you might have a good idea for a different show...
