View Full Version : My concept for a sitcom...Everything Happens in Bertstown
MrCleveland 07-24-2018, 05:19 PM I've talked about this in Fan Fiction, particularly The Warners on Sitcom Family Feud, but I'd like to make a sitcom named Everything Happens in Bertstown which is about a guy who's down-and-out in everyday life.
Here's why it's called Bertstown...
In 1982, Parma, Ohio had too many disagreements on how their policies were...one part was named Bertstown for the pitcher Bert Blyleven, who thought was the no-hit pitcher for the Cleveland Indians. But it was Len Barker and there was already a town that was part of Parma called Barkersfield. The name stayed and it has 300 some people.
The Characters:
James Paul Warner: AKA-Paul Warner, the protagonist of the show who has two dead-end jobs, no car, no love-life, goes to Cathedral Community College, and lives with his parents who gets little-to-no respect and love...think of a live-action Charlie Brown or Donald Duck. He loves 20th century pop culture, The Beatles, cartoons, and family.
John Paul Warner: AKA-John Warner, the mayor of Bertstown who's a Libertarian since he hates BOTH parties. Though he's Paul's stepbrother, he looks after him and lives with Paul and his parents. He likes classical music...and The Moody Blues.
Helen Hildegarde Warner: She's the mother of Paul Warner, Dustin Warner, and Margaret Warner. She's a kindergarten teacher at Cathedral Elementary which is behind Cathedral Community College and never thinks of herself.
Tony Carmen Warner III: He's Paul's stepfather who thinks nothing about him...but then again, he only thinks about himself! Though he lives with Helen, he's had many affairs, would drink everyday, go to work and only show-up, gives everyone a hard time, and has a bad temper. He's the antagonist on the show!
Dustin Mark Warner: He has his life intact for awhile, working as an associate manager at Finast Bark, a grocery/pet store, is engaged to Veronica Madoff, "graduated" Cleveland State, lives in an apartment above The Creamo Cafe, and though he can be obnoxious...he'll defend Paul when needed.
Margaret Elizabeth Warner: The youngest Warner, she ran away from home at the age of 17 and lived with her grandma Emma Bach for a year until she lived with Al Hicks. She has a "Devil May Care" attitude, but would love her family regardless...even Paul.
Paulo Ronaldo: Born in Rio de Janeiro, he never knew his parents and was raised in a Lutheran Church but dreamed of being American. During a mission trip by Americans Tom and Darlene Tome...Paulo helped Tom with many things and he lived with the Tome's for awhile in Bertstown. He loves soccer, fejoida, his job as a taxi driver, Jose Carioca (he even dresses like him), and of course...America.
Andrew Aristotle Amos: AKA-Andy Amos, he spent his childhood in Toronto since his father who was born in Zambia was a draft dodger of the Vietnam War and his mother was a French-Canadian Jew. He befriends Paul at The Cathedral Community College and he's a video director for the Reverend's TV Shows which air on channel 69. He's easygoing and helps Paul.
The Reverend: He owns The Cathedral Community College which was formed and built in 1969. He was born in Mount Airy, North Carolina in 1920 and has Suittieitis which he wears a suit and tie everyday! He was once married, but his wife died the same day Jimi Hendrix passed-away (September 18, 1970). He considers rock music "The Devil's Music"...but likes The Byrds "Turn, Turn, Turn" since it came from The Bible and is a friend to Elton John because he helps him with suits and wigs (The Reverend denies having a wig, but he changes them almost every decade). The Reverend gives Paul advice and tells him not to worry because "God Made You Unique"!
Anna-Sophia Saggs: AKA-Ms. Saggs, she's the teacher at The Cathedral Community College. She has the hots for The Reverend, though her boobs droop almost to her feet. She hates Paul Warner because she thinks he's keeping her away from The Reverend. She tries to flunk him in every class because of it! Ms. Saggs was born in Germany in 1939 and is an only child.
Holly Holliday: Paul's school crush, they've been neighbors since they were 4 years old. Holly used to have other men, but she gets jealous when Paul dates other women...even if it's just a friendship date. They even work together at The Orson-Ado Department Store. And Paul is secretly in love with Holly, but could never tell her.
Maximilian: He's the owner of The Orson-Ado. Born in 1900 in Luxembourg, he's the last of the Hapsburgs in Luxembourg, he even has the Hapsburg Jaw and rides on a mechanical wheelchair. Maximilian like Paul and calls him "Mr. Varner".
Some suggestions for you:
Who would guest star on your show? Would there be any musical episodes?
MrCleveland 07-25-2018, 04:19 PM Some suggestions for you:
Who would guest star on your show? Would there be any musical episodes?
In one episode, I'd like to have the 1995 Cleveland Indians line-up as cameos. I'd even like to have Oprah Winfrey be on a TV Show that James Paul Warner would have called Midday Cleveland which is a talk show that talks about the city.
I dunno if there'll be any musical episodes, but I thought of having an episode where Paul, John, Helen, and Tony Warner go to Imagi-Nation because that area is losing its creativity and such.

Would any sitcom stars guest?
MrCleveland 07-25-2018, 05:04 PM Would any sitcom stars guest?
I would like to have Drew Carey in one episode. Maybe Tim Allen or Kelsey Grammer as well since one episode, Paul meets-up with his half-brother Jason Alexander Grammer.
If he's around and is willing to do so, I'd like to have Robert de Niro play Tony Carmen Warner Jr. (AKA-Papa Warner) and I'd like to have Emilio Estevez on the show as well because Paul's stepfather is actually Martin Sheen's son and has the given name Antonio Estevez.
I'll also show more people who's on the show....

I could see Kelsey Grammer returning to his Frasier role and Tim Allen would be a guest caller.
Jason Alexander would be another great guest star as well.
MrCleveland 07-25-2018, 07:20 PM I could see Kelsey Grammer returning to his Frasier role and Tim Allen would be a guest caller.
Jason Alexander would be another great guest star as well.
I would like Alexander play a character named Gutch Konarski. Here's his bio...
Gutch Konarski: The business administrator for The Cathedral Community College and is hated by many since he's always in a bad mood and has to have everything in order. He always twitches when Paul Warner annoys him...which is a lot (Like how Chief Inspector Charles LaRousse Dreyfus does when Inspector Clouseau frustrates him)!
MrCleveland 07-28-2018, 04:21 PM On Everything Happens in Bertstown, there's a lot of members in The Warner Family. Here's the list...
Tony Carmen Warner Jr.:The stepfather of Tony Warner III, father of Peggy, Sue, Jacqueline, Melinda, and Maxwell lives in Orson Heights which became its own suburb after leaving Garfield Heights because of their objection toward City View Center. He owns a cement company called Warner Brothers Cement and Paving Company. His stepson Tony "works" for him and he gets paid the most despite NOT doing much!

Peggy Ann Zintanik:The eldest daughter of the Warner Family, she likes to go to all the karaoke bars and never buys anything. She always eats-out at restaurants. She's hated by her half-brother Tony who always calls her names rather than her name.
Burton Zintanik:He married Peggy in 1979 and both have a son named Ashley. After Ashley was born in 1980, he met his partner Ernest Earl Endeavor who lived in Buffalo at the time and divorced Peggy so he can live with his partner. He's also known as "Uncle Bert" or "Aunt Bert" or "Uncle Bald Guy". He would later remarry Peggy in 1996 but still be friends with his partner Ernest Earl.
Ernest Earle Endeavor:AKA-Uncle Ernie, was born in Buffalo in 1960. His parents were strict and would never let Ernie play with the other children. At the age of 12, he went to a Liberace concert and he said "I'll do anything be be like Liberace". When he was 13, he told his parents that he's gay and was forced to live with his older sister Elsie who was 20 and had a place of her own. In 1980, he met Bert and stayed together until 1995 when Bert left Ernie. In 1997, Ernie would move to Lakewood and see Aunt Peggy and Uncle Bert perform karaoke.
Ashley Zintanik:The only child of Aunt Peggy and Uncle Bert, he acted like a spoiled brat in the 80's and 90's. He set the record for getting detention and going to summer school at The Cathedral Community College. In his High School years, he would sometimes dress as a woman and would do so until he met his wife Beatrice Vicimarli. Now he collects action figures and video games and spends his time playing these games with his toys and sometimes selling duplicates of his toys.
Beatrice Vicimarli-Zintanik:Ashley's wife, she's a nurse at University Hospital in Parma and married Ashley in 2008.
Bernice Vicimarli:AKA-Blah. She's Beatrice's twin sister and lives at The House for the Disabled. She dated Paul Warner a few times, she's half-blind, half-deaf, and when she dated Paul, she was married to Miller, but that marriage never was completed. She would later date a guy named Dean Schmidt Jr..
Sue Reidle:She lives in Nelson, Ohio on her father's property. She married David Reidle in 1980 and they had a child named David Jr.. She loved life, rides motorcycles, is into classic rock, and has five dogs.
David Reidle:He lives with Sue, likes to hunt, fish, go to Las Vegas (that's how he earns half of his money), works as a trucker despite being color-blind and dyslexic, and loves drinking beer...especially Miller. Because for him...anytime is Miller Time, he even says "It's Miller Time"!
David Reidle Jr.:The only son of the Reidles. He likes all the things that both his parents like. He also wants to go into The Marines and would do anything to pass the tests for being the few, the proud, the Marines.
Melinda Ray:AKA-Linda. She lives in Warren, Ohio and is married to Daniel Ray. She works at The Packard Museum and gives her father Tony all the details of any Packard convention since Tony Jr. is a member of The Packard Club. She also has three children, Rachel, Jacob, and Ezekiel.
Daniel Ray:AKA-Lieutenant Dan (only because he looks like Lieutenant Dan from Forrest Gump, he was never in the army), like David he likes to hunt, fish, and drink beer. He's a die-hard Lynyrd Skynyrd fan and can never get enough of "Freebird". He would hang-out with David a lot and doesn't even have a job.
Rachel Ray:(Not to be confused with the chef), she works at the Warren Library Main Branch. She's quiet and shy and takes care of her family as much as she can.
Jacob Ray:AKA-Jake, Unlike his father, he actually joins the Marines after finishing High School. But like his father, he would hunt and fish.
Ezekiel Ray:AKA-Zeke. The youngest of the Ray children, he rarely speaks, has long hair, and mostly plays by himself no matter where he goes.
Jacqueline Dumas:AKA-Jackie. She lives in Ravenna, works at Ford, sells antiques, and is divorced. Of all the sister Tony has, she likes her the most. Andy Amos would even talk to her from time to time.
John Dumas:Former husband of Jackie, he keeps to himself, he's like Tony Warner III, but less active. Tony likes to call him "Dumbass" rather than Dumas.
Rose Marie Dumas:The eldest child of The Dumas Family, she's into heavy and gothic metal, wears black, and has been in trouble with the law. Rose used to be a tattle-tale alongside with Margaret Warner. One time, when Paul and Rose went to the library, she got caught in the rotating doors, got sick, and as everyone was walking-out...she started to cry and sat on the ground. After that, she moved to Ravenna and tried to get vengeance on Paul.
John Dumas Jr.:AKA-Johnny, the middle child of the Dumas Family, he enjoys fishing and has caught 20 fish in one day at one time. He dislikes his father because he treated his family wrong and tries not to invite him...not even at his own wedding! He lives in Kent, a mile away from Kent State University.
Caroline Dumas:The youngest of the Dumas children, she lives in Stow not too far from Wingfoot Lake, she helps her mom with finding antiques.
Tony Carmen Warner:Born in New Castle, Pennsylvania on July 28, 1914. He now lives in Pittsburgh and he founded The Warner Brothers Cement and Paving Company, after winning a card game in a place on Little Italy in Cleveland. His stepson Carmen Jr., was loved by him, he loved him more than his biological daughters Martha, Mary, and Magdalene. He married Winifred van Houten in 1945, after fighting in World War II since he heard that she has a 4-year-old son...but they divorced in 2005 after he found-out Winifred was dating their butler! And he suggested his stepson to live in Garfield Heights and he discovered a 100-year-old house that was up for sale that he can live in as well. Tony Carmen Warner dies as the series goes on.
Winifred Warner:Like Tony Warner III, she hates everyone and everything, drinks vodka, smokes, and even goes out with other men. She especially hates Helen Warner the most because she wanted Tony to marry the blonde, Lisa Giuseppe and not the nerd! She dies in the first season.
Martha Warner:The eldest daughter of the Warners I, she was born in 1946 and is married to an Scots-Irish Australian named Stanley McClure.
Mary Warner:The second daughter of the Warners I, she was born in 1947 and always got what she wanted, even holding her breath one time!
Magdalene Warner:The youngest daughter of the Warners I, she was born in 1948 and lives in Monterey, California. She's a hippie and sometimes come to The Warner's III house to veg which would even make his nephew Tony III like her a lot.
Steve_uk 07-28-2018, 04:36 PM Wouldn't this be better as a drama than a comedy?
MrCleveland 07-28-2018, 06:10 PM Wouldn't this be better as a drama than a comedy?
I'm writing this as a dark comedy...my brother will help me on this.
MrCleveland 07-28-2018, 06:17 PM Would there be any musical episodes?
I do have an episode where James-Paul Warner is with Dustin, Luke Nelson, and Zeke Nelson and the Cleveland Indians game was in a rain delay. Paul tells Dustin "They're gonna postpone the game" and he wants to go home, but Dustin insists he stays and Paul buys a few beers, gets drunk, and while it's still raining, he does this...
D1ZYhVpdXbQ
But instead of getting kicked-out...he becomes their Rain Man, dancing and singing in the rain as the people who go to the game wait for the rain delay to end.
Steve_uk 07-28-2018, 06:19 PM I'm writing this as a dark comedy...my brother will help me on this.
Oh have you ditched Helen Hildegarde already? She was a sympathetic character..
MrCleveland 07-28-2018, 09:00 PM Oh have you ditched Helen Hildegarde already? She was a sympathetic character..
No I haven't...Helen dies in the 12th Season...if I have it go 12 seasons, the Series Finale is a five-parter. Only Paul's great-grandmother dies in the 1st season, she's named Winifred Van Houten-Warner. She's even in the cold-opening of the pilot episode called "The Pilot: Literally!" Because James-Paul Warner wants to do something his family hasn't done, so he decides to become a pilot! The cold-opening is like the first part of The GoodFellas. Paulo, Paul, and Andy Amos drive to Nelson in the evening, they hear a thump, they ask "what the **** was that"? They open the trunk and see that Great-Grandma Winifred was only dead for 5 minutes, she yells at Paul, then dies again!
James-Paul Warner says this as the first monologue, "AS Far Back As I Can Remember, I Always Wanted To Be An Entertainer! Now What The **** Does This Has To Do With Anything? Watch This Show, And You'll Find Out"!
And if this isn't used in any series, like if The Goodfellas doesn't become a series...this would be Everything Happens In Bertstown Theme Song...

MrCleveland 08-04-2018, 07:01 PM Okay...I forgot about about the other members from the Warner Family, so...
Maxwell Warner: The youngest member of The Warner Family, his father is Tony Warner II and Mrs. Robinski, he was born in 1969 at The Woodstock Concert, when Tony Warner II and Beatrice Warner finally married when they reunited in Bethel, New York. They decided to have Maxwell go to St. John Lutheran and Trinity High School in Garfield Heights, but Maxwell would leave his parents house and live in Tony Carmen Warner III's house once he dies in season 12.
Emily Valeska "Emma" Houston: Emma was born in Cleveland by her German Parents who were anti-German because of The Great War (World War I) and It's rumored that her father's side is Polish and her mother's side is French...but Emma says she's 100% German! Emma was a reckless driver, drinks heavily, and smokes heavily until 2004 when Dustin put whipped cream on an eggnog pie she made and the last coherent thing she said while swinging a knife at Dustin was "Don't You ****ing Put Whipped Cream On My God-Damn Pie...It Already Has Whipped Cream On It"! After that day, she sat on her rocking chair and repeated "Hi, I'm Grandma".
John Houston: Born in August of 1921 in Huntington, Indiana...he wanted to see the big city like many of his siblings. He would later be a trumpet player on The Lawrence Welk Show, but got kicked-out when he had an affair with one of the Champagne Ladies in the 60's. But he later got gigs with Herb Alpert and would be the lead trumpet player on this song....
GWjbUAYcxII
John gave the blessing for his daughter being the 5th Beatle...but Helen's mom would stop it when Helen had a crush with Julian Lennon (And if I can...Julian Lennon will have a cameo on my show).
Jackie Houston: Helen's only brother, he works at the Orson-Ado in a lower spot than James-Paul Warner. The only reason why Paul got that job was because of Uncle Jackie. Jackie rarely speaks to Helen and vice-versa.
Jane Houston: Wife of Jackie, she rarely talks her opinion, but never cares about anyone in her family.
Julie Houston: She lives in the basement of her parents house in Twinsburg, but is only mentioned few times on her show.
John Houston: (AKA-Jackie John Houston Jr.) He lives in Toledo and does broadcasting at Toledo University. He would make some appearances on Midday Cleveland to talk about sports.
Miles Houston: Born in 1950, he was put-up for adoption after he was born because Emma wasn't ready for parenthood but John was. He was a hippie who went to Woodstock, was drafted in Vietnam, but he lost his draft card by accident. John helped Miles when he went to court, but Emma didn't...Miles rarely talks to his biological mother as of today. Miles would later go to Kent State and he even encountered the 1970 shooting incident. He made a speech about it when he graduated in 1973.
Janice Palznik: Jackie's mother, she lived in Old Brooklyn and still reminiscences the times there when there was a theater on Broadview and Pearl Roads. (True story...by Broadview and Pearl Roads on my street...there was a theater)...

Bradley Palznik: Jackie's father, he married Janice once he found-out she was pregnant...since it was 1958, they married to avoid scandal.
Hartwig Malzenberger: Helen's German cousin who comes to America once a year and he loves everything about America. He wants to move to the United States, but his wife loves Germany. Hartwig always smuggles Kinder Eggs to America because he's connected to a Black Market group in the states, however...they're connected to the Nazi Party and is accused of being part of the Nazi Party more than once. He also gives Paul Donald Duck Comics from Germany.
Laurel Harding: Paul's cousin who's an actress, she's the theater teacher at the Cathedral Community College.
Richard Scott: Paul's ex-cousin who's also a theater teacher at the Cathedral Community College.
Harvey Farkas: Paul's great-uncle who smokes, drinks, and gambles. He has the nickname "Happy Harvey" because most of the time he's happy and usually wins his card games and horse races. He even won a few shares of Channel 69, WCCC that he gives Paul who already has a TV Show on that station. Harvey also knows Mike Trivisono and would play cards with him.
Edna Farkas: Emma's older sister, she's married to Harvey and would have cocktail parties every other week. Both Harvey and Edna like the music of Burt Bachrach and Hal David.
Byron Farkas: The only child of Harvey and Edna. He enjoys bowling and playing cards with his father and Triv.
MrCleveland 08-29-2018, 05:48 PM I have a lot of people who play in bands, Tony Warner plays guitar he thinks he's Jimi Hendrix, but he sounds like Jimmy Page of today (Page isn't a good guitarist).
Lisa Giuseppi:She used to be Tony's best friend between 1977 and 1984. They both went to Garfield Heights High School and would be in a band "Where Are You Going To?" After a fight over a microphone, Tony said "That ***** Is Dead To Me"! But 20+ years later...she returns to his life and is good friends with Helen, Paul, and John. Her daytime job is a nurse at Parma's University Hospital and she still has "Where Are You Going To?" But with a new lead singer...
Joshua Heimlick:He too hung-out with Tony between 1977 and 1984. He would hint at the time that he's gay. When Tony met with Helen, he would hang-out with her and Tony's sisters. He replaced Tony in "Where Are You Going To?" and it's more successful. He owns a nostalgia store called "Collector's Box" and he also dates Lisa and works at The Cleveland Crisis Center. "Where Are You Going To?" name came from this song...

MrIndiana 11-28-2018, 07:43 PM I'm curious to learn more about this sitcom idea and I was wondering if you could these questions.
1. Who is the target audience for this show?
2. Is this animated or live action?
3. Do you have any connections? Are you going to independently fund this?
4. How do you expect to get so many celebrity guests and rights to the licensed music?
5. How do you expect to start with 1 season of this? Also, a sponsorship from Miller?
6. Did you really plan this to go on for 12 seasons?
7. Where exactly does the humor come from?
8. How much influence would you say this show takes from shows like The Simpsons, Cheers, Newhart, Seinfeld, Home Improvement and The Wonder Years?
P.S.
It's Miller time

1-The 18-49 viewership...the show will be TV-MA.
2-It's live-action...it was going to be animated, but that'll take a long time.
3-Most likely...independent...I have another show to begin which is a midnight movie show.
4-This will be a thing I'll worry about...I'll also show other TV shows/movies/cartoons that'll need a requested fee.
5-If Season 1 fails on a station...the rest will be seen online. It'll be sponsored by many products.
6-Yes.
7-The humor is dark and obscure...
8-The influence comes from many sitcoms from I Love Lucy, All In The Family, Home Improvement, Seinfeld, and Frasier just to name a few....
PS-I had an argument with my brother today about Tony...he hates it that he uses force with a gun toward anyone...I only use this to show how much of an ******* he (Tony) is.
PPS-The Reverend's REAL name is **** Roberts, the long-lost brother of Oral Roberts.
MrCleveland 05-16-2019, 05:40 PM I just finished a rough draft for the pilot episode of Bertstown...it's 25 pages long, that's why it's a rough draft.
I'm gonna give it to my brother and to someone who knows about scripts.

Good luck.
Some suggestions for you:
Who would guest star on your show? Would there be any musical episodes?
Since it's called Bertstown, the answer should be obvious:

Bert is my #1 Sesame Street Character.
I made a minor change...Helen Warner's middle name is "Bernadette", but many would call her Helen Bernie...and I had a dog named Helen Bernie. The character HATES being called Helen Bernie...but she does enjoy this song....

Not really...but I have more characters...
Cameron Mann: He's Midday Cleveland's camera man and he is literally a camera!
Wade the Groundskeeper: He's one of the two groundskeepers at Cathedral Community College.
Roy the Groundskeeper: He's one of the two groundskeepers at Cathedral Community College.

Okay. Sounds interesting.
Please check out my “fictional” show called The Rich and The Insane. It’s a primetime drama.
