If you haven’t heard yet, the characters you know and love (and even those you love to hate) have all been told to pack their stuff and hit the road by the powers that be. This happened after the actors demanded the 3 year contracts that were promised to them during their last strike 10 months ago, better pay, and royalties for broadcasts of the show overseas.
According to Channel24, Mfundi Vundla, executive producer of Generations isn’t very happy, but says the show will go on without it’s principal cast.
There are currently enough episodes of the show to last until the end of September, which means there is little more than a month to look for a new cast and write new stories... or will they? Well, if they need any help coming up with a few ideas, here are a few possible plot lines:
WARNING: There are potential spoilers (for different shows) below
They all died in a plane crash like Grey’s Anatomy:
There was a zombie apocalypse a la Walking Dead:
They’ve all had plastic surgery. So they look different, but they’re the same people:
Someone put some kind of curse on them, so they’re destined to spend the rest of their lives in someone else’s body like an episode of Charmed.
They all went on holiday and got lost in the Bermuda triangle and are now effectively stuck in the SA version of Lost.
They were all abducted by aliens and are now being probed in space
The rapture finally happened. All the cast was wiped out and all that’s left are the cockroaches and Keith Richards.
Red wedding. ‘Nuff said.
Or maybe the writers will just ignore it?
And if all else fails, they could always give Shonda Rimes or George R.R Martin a call. You know how those two love killing everyone off.
