Actually, most of these ideas sound quite good. Originality, and risk-taking are things you don't often see in modern tv sitcoms. The worst idea for a sitcom must be about the domestic life of a modern family/bunch of flatsharing 20 somethings, as written by people with no experience of anything other than shagging or drinking. In other words, nearly every damn show being made in the UK.

One man and his Zog
Like one man and his dog, but this time the shepherd's have to command General Zod evil lord of the Forbidden Zone to round up sheep.
A later of spin off, involves Nazis, and Klansmen trying to persuade the Zionist Occupational Gouvernment to move their sheep.

'Meet And Two Veg'...
A zany, sideways look at life as butcher Keith Meet (Jasper Carrott) struggles with life as a single Dad to severely mentally and physically disabled twin sons. And look out for special guest star (Helen Lederer) playing the family's case worker, Mrs Gravy.

I always wanted to write a sit-com called Naked Jane, where the lead is inexplicably nude.

Man can not live on Bread alone
A harrowing new version of 1984, where Winston SMith is driven insane. By being forced to watch nothing but gritty Carla Lane sitcoms.
Well I'll goto the top stairs.
Stephen Hawkings first sitcom, where his slovenly flat mate, wins every argument by proving he can climb the stairs.

BJ and the Bear
Boris Johnson moves in with a large polar bear, it kills, and eats him.
Jesus Christ Supercar
Christs back from the dead, but this time he's resurrected as a Lambourghini. A cross between highway to heaven, and Knite Ryder, with Jeremy CLarkson as Michael Knite/that beardy guy in highway.
