Someone in the office mentioned (joked) that we should have an SD sitcom and have members as characters.I did link them to the 2005 thread with the storyline of the Slickdeals Family...
That is old...how about a new one?
Here is the link to the original.

Setting: A deserted island somewhere in the Caribbean
Background: A Royal Caribbean cruise liner has suffered a mechanical failure and all passengers were required to abandon the ship in lifeboats. All of the lifeboats were told to stay near the cruise ship, as Royal Caribbean was sending another ship to pick them up. One of the lifeboats, however, had an accident on board and sped away at high speed from the abandoned cruise ship. Before the passengers managed to get the lifeboat under control, they found themselves adrift in the middle of the ocean, unable to see the cruise ship and unable to figure out how to trace their way back. There was a mysterious island off in the distance, and since the passengers had no food and no water, they decided to check out the island.
Cast:
-MLV as the wisecracking old man who accidentally hit the power button in the lifeboat and stranded the boat full of passengers
-Vec as the grizzled war vet who wants to take charge and use his survival skills to keep the group alive
-Cupcake and Finzz as the two hot singles who fight over which of them will be Vec's love interest
-VQ as the loveable screwup who tries really hard to help but only winds up making things worse
-Schooby as the comic alcoholic lady who thinks everything will be ok if only she can figure out how to make some kind of liquor from coconuts
-Autumn as the troubled loner who chafes under Vec's authority and secretly plots to topple him and take charge of the group
-|\/|ax as the geeky "guy next door" who gets seduced by Autumn's sexual prowess and is swayed into helping her in her plot to take control of the group from Vec
-The Raddish and Serra as the old married couple that are really cute together and connect with the audience to make the dangers more dramatic even though they can't speak English and no one has any idea what their deal is
-Slutsky as the troublemaking young teenager who is sullen and grumpy all the time because he can't recharge his iPod and thinks his life is over without his technological gadgets
-Redsolar as the technological genius who is convinced he can build something to signal the rescuers from stuff on the island
-Xnarg as the heartless coast guard officer in charge of the rescue who does everything by the numbers and thinks it's a waste of resources to keep looking for the passengers
-Mr. SD as the helicopter pilot who defies Xnarg's orders when he calls off the search and continues looking anyways, finding and rescuing everyone at the very end of the movie, defying the odds and becoming the hero
Storyline:
Act 1 – The group is in the boat waiting for rescue when MLV accidentally trips and hits the power button with his cane, and then scrambles to shut the boat off, only to push the wrong button and accelerate them to top speed. By the time Vec gets control and shuts the boat off, they're way far away and have no idea how to get back. They see an island off in the distance, and after a few hours they decide to go to the island to try and find food and water. Autumn thinks this is a terrible idea and they should just turn a 180 and head off until they find the cruise ship. Even though Vec explains that the boat doesn't have much fuel left and they are incredibly likely to head in the wrong direction and make matters worse, Autumn refuses to listen to reason and seethes because Vec didn't listen to her.
Act 2 – The group begins exploring the island, and finds fresh water and fruit. Autumn decides that the young people should get more food than the older passengers since they're doing all the work. Vec points out that they need to share evenly, and Autumn gets even angrier. She begins her seduction of Max, trying to recruit an ally. Meanwhile, Cupcake and Finzz are both falling in love with manly leader Vec, and realize they are both trying to get him. They begin subtly sabotaging each other trying to make the other look less appealing to Vec. Cupcake swaps Serra's drinking water with seawater, to which Serra responds by putting monkey feces in Cupcake's shoes, etc. VQ tries to get some coconuts out of a tall tree, only to slip and fall out of the tree. He sustains no serious injuries, but does have 3 coconuts fall on his head and give him a comic lump. Raddish and Serra take VQ away to lay down and rest from his coconut concussion. After they lead VQ away, Schooby picks up the 3 coconuts that fell from the tree and looks at them thoughtfully.
Act 3 - Redsolar is out looking for food when he finds a cave. He explores the cave only to realize that there is naturally occurring saltpeter inside, with which he may be able to fashion some sort of explosive to try and make a some kind of a signal that the rescuers could see from far off. Meanwhile, back on land, Xnarg is informing the Royal Caribbean people that they can only keep looking for the stranded passengers for a few more days before they have to move on. He cites budget cutbacks, and small chance of success, etc. Mr. SD overhears the conversation and is deeply troubled. Back on the island, Autumn and Max are coming up with a plan to get Vec to fall in a deep hole in Redsolar's cave, trapping him so that they can take control and convince the group to get in the boat and try and head back to the cruise ship. They recruit the sullen and always frowning Slutsky to pretend to run away, forcing Vec to go looking for him. Slutsky is only too happy to create a little anarchy and readily agrees. Redsolar is distracted by Schooby constantly bugging him to use his technological talents to build her a still so she can make rum from the coconut milk. VQ decides he wants to try and help by building Redsolar a nice container to hold his saltpeter in, only to accidentally spill all the saltpeter into the river and ruin it.
Act 4 – Slutsky leads Vec into the trap in the caves. Max and Autumn are hiding, waiting to see if Vec falls into the pit. They see Vec come into the cave, calling for Slutsky, and they see him fall and disappear from view. In typical stupid-bad-guy style, they don't bother to check and make sure that he is really gone. They walk out of the cave with their arms around Slutsky's shoulders, followed by the camera panning to the edge of the pit, where we can see Vec clinging to a ledge a few feet down from the edge of the pit. Back on land, Xnarg officially calls off the search for the missing passengers. Mr. SD stands up in the meeting and calls Xnarg a heartless bastard, and says he'll keep looking whether Xnarg likes it or not. Redsolar finally manages to convince Schooby that he can't make her a pina colada from a coconut and goes back to the cave to get more saltpeter. He hears Vec calling for help and rescues him. Together they collect the missing ingredients for Redsolar's crude bomb and head back to camp. When Autumn and Max and Slutsky see Vec heading back towards the camp, they take off. Vec tells everyone what happened and they look for the 3 bad guys, but can't find them. Redsolar completes his crude bomb and detonates it. At that exact moment, Mr. SD is about to turn back and finally give up, when he sees the explosion off on the horizon and flies towards it. When Mr. SD gets there, he radios back to the Coast Guard and tells them he found the stranded passengers. Everyone cheers, except for Xnarg who sulks like the jerk he is. The Coast guard sends a bunch of helicopters to rescue them, and they all fly off into the sunset, with Autumn, Max, and Slutsky in handcuffs.
