Gilmore says first Assembly term may be his last

Sitcom Pitch: My Mother the Mayor. All about the zany antics of two feuding political families. Banana peels thrown in the hallways of the State House to uproarious laughter at the pratfalls. The mother constantly chiding the the two lead characters (based on Dean and Nicole) to get along and yet turns and churns up more bad feelings herself to more laughter when the son has to correct the mother. The underlying sexual tension builds as the audience yearns for the two handsome antagonists to get together. All the support characters are in some level of politics,
too. Even the kids are running for student body president.

After the story in today's Bee about Danny Gilmore's buyer's remorse I'm still convinced that a tv show about the two political families would be viable. Or at least funny as we speculate about the plot and characters.
