"Lol & Order". Can you change the name of a television show to a more comical one?

Asked by rebbel (35549points) February 22nd, 2012

I think this question is self-explanatory, right?!
Can you alter a popular television show’s name and make it into a more fun one?
Not saying that Lol & Order is funny, but it has a comical ring to it, or has it?!

We always call the Nancy Grace show “Nancy Disgrace.”

Boardwalk Entire

A tsunami destroys the boardwalk and this show chronicals the adventures of townspeople trying to rebuilt their lives as they rebuild the boardwalk. Laughs abound because somehow the tsunami had caused a kind of mass psychosis and people are only able to talk backwards.
