When [livejournal.com profile] counteragent said that she wished Supernatural had cast Chuck as a woman, my first thought was, why stop there? What if they'd cast Dean as a woman, Sam as a woman, Bobby as a woman, Castiel as a woman, Lucifer as a woman -- in short, an all-female cast?

Then I realized that what I was imagining was basically Supernatural as reimagined by the Takarazuka Revue. Here's a clip from a performance of Rose of Versailles:


Perfect, right?

So what shows (movies, books, comics, etc.) would you want to see with an all-female cast?

Hm, good question. [personal profile] peoriapeoriawhereart and [personal profile] omorka_fics and I just spent some time recently speculating on what "The Real Ghostbusters" would have been like if the characters had been female. It got pretty deep into class, race, education, personality, stuff like that too. Interesting speculation. We came out of it wondering if, had the characters been female, they would all actually have survived the kind of beating they'd get from society long enough to meet and go into business.

Interesting; I've never seen "The Real Ghostbusters", but I'm guessing that a lot of your speculation would apply to other shows as well.

I think they're chimpanzees in my icon, but bonobos would work too. ;)

Maybe even better, for fandom. Bonobo ladies are bad mofos. :-D
