I’m not volunteering to do this, but I was pondering the awenado that would be unleashed should this be created.  That’s right, a tornado of awesomeness.

The 13th episode was never shot of this better-than-ABC-Family-deserved series.  What has been released is a graphic novel of the final episode.

Also floating about on the net is an OK quality recording of a full cast table read of the script at Comic-Con.  The real weakness of which is that the dialog isn’t always intelligible.

(There is a better .mp4 around that is an improvement on the MyFaceInATube version.)

Watching it I kept wishing there were subtitles… which brings me to:

I propose a Ken Burns style treatment of the graphic novel over-dubbed with the original cast from the table read.

The text and art from the comic would gloss over the short comings of the table read.  The original cast’s energy, the camera movement and any other possible effects would help with the static nature of the comic.

Frankly, this is something that should have been done professionally as an extra to the DVDs.  I’m sure can see my plan is sheer elegance in its simplicity.

Is anyone else excited by this proposal?
