yendiWhile watching Slings and Arrows last night, I had the most horrifying concept for a take on King Lear:
The Powerpuff Lear. With The Professor as Lear, Blossom as Goneril, Buttercup as Regan, and Bubbles as Cordelia. It works horrifyingly well until faced with the necessity of Mojo Jojo as Cornwall.
It would still be better than that fucking Mr. Magoo Christmas Carol.
ETA: Yes, I suppose that it would work better with Ace as Cornwall, but I can't see any PPG event not using their primary villain.
