If you haven’t heard, Barack and Michelle Obama are in talks with Netflix to produce a series of shows. According to The New York Times, they are interested in shows that highlight inspirational stories, as well as shows where they could possibly discuss current issues.

While this all sounds good and dandy, catering to the Obamas’ fun side might also be a great way to bust into this TV business. We all know the Obamas are up against some tough competition with reality TV these days.

Therefore, I’ve brainstormed a list of 5 ideas that might get some more folks in front of the screen. Swipe through to find out if they fit the bill!

Live From Chicago: The Obama Comedy Special 

Let’s not act like Obama doesn’t kill at the White House Correspondence Dinners. Why not give him his own special? We need that presidential humor stat!

First Lady 

With Michelle as the host, women across the country compete in the realm of fashion, poise and community outreach to become America’s Next First Lady.

Tea With Auntie Maxine 

Imagine Michelle & Barack having brunch with Rep. Maxine Waters for the latest gossip going down in D.C. It’d be too much tea to handle!

Malia Approves

Once Malia Obama gets past her wild college years at Harvard, she could be a major influencer when it comes to music and pop culture. Let’s not forget the grand time she had at Lollapalooza last year. Michelle and Obama could compete in a talent competition for their favorite charity and Malia would be the final judge. We expect her most chilling commentary.

The Real World: Obama & Joe Take On America 

Why not have a show where the epic bromance is tested? Obama and Joe embark on a road trip across the country, and politics are tested, while roommate drama gets heated. Only then will we find out if the two besties can truly take on America.
