Mission Impossible
It's a series (1966 to 1973)
Just make sure the place you are held hostage has facilities for disabled people.
They are not that young anymoreHow many are even still alive?
Edit: according to IMDB, only two of the people in that picture are still alive.

I'm going to pick Superman.
SAAAAVE MARFAAAAA
-
If it were a movie, I would have picked Suicide Squad.
Reasons:
- Plot armor. Helicopter. No one dies.
- Plot safety. Enemies just drag you away instead of trying to kill you.
- Plot stealth. Joker wears name on badge on swat uniform through prison security.
- Plot stealth. Harley sneaks in several machine guns into a mental hospital.
-
Speaking of Raven, tell me, is this not the most impressive cosplay of any character ever?

@Karla Leverage isn't a comedy. It does contain comedic elements, but it's more of an ensemble/heist show. Imagine The A-Team if the team were composed of Ocean's 11 con artists, and you'll have a basic idea.
I just looked for it on Netflix apparently I did start watching it (5 - 6 episodes).
-
@Karla
What can we say, you may be nuts but we like you anyway...
-
I almost said the cast of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but then I remembered people who are kidnapped in the series usually end up dead or turned into a vampire.
Unless they're part of the main cast or a recurring character.
-
I pick The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.

I used to get all my news from that show. I barely even know Hitler's the president now...
-
I'd have to go with Stargate SG-1.
I hope nothing got autocorrected there since I can't see what I'm typing on iPad.
-
@Quwertzuiopp One Piece was my choice too, and I'm somewhat surprised anybody else mentioned it. The Straw Hats invading Enies Lobby was already unbelievably daring, and then Luffy escaping Impel Down was awesome too.
I haven't paid much attention since Whitebeard died, and I read the beginning of the Doflamingo arc. Is it still good?
I guess that since One Piece is taken, I'll pick Hunter x Hunter.

South Park?
In which it is cannon that:
- The main characters convince Santa to spread Christmas to the Middle East as a good deed
- Santa is shot down Black Hawk Down style
- Santa is kidnapped and tortured
- The main characters enlist the aid of Jesus to rescue him
- Jesus shoots his way into the Iraqi compound, and rescues Santa
- But as they escape Jesus is shot and fatally wounded
- The characters + Santa escape and go home
And thus from that day forward, Christmas is celebrated in memory of Jesus, who died to save Christmas.
-
If I can pick a video game, I'd pick Magicka. The rescue attempt would fail, but it would be hilarious.

At least one of them, the guy with the big grin on the bottom left, is dead.
Pretty sure Peter Graves, top left, as died before Nimoy.
-
Based on chances of actually getting out with limited collateral damages (i.e. without the Earth being destroyed), I'd say Star Trek TNG.
Based on chances of being rescued and having amazing adventures all along, I'd say Doctor Who.
Based on chances of being rescued while having fun, I'd say Chuck (mostly the early seasons, later ones... a bit meh...).
Based on chances of having fun, although probably not really rescued (or at least not alive), I'd say Top Gear.

That's not Top Gear, that's a crappy tribute act.

Crappy would be if it includes Chris Evans.
Actually, anything including Chris Evans is crappy. By definition. (Look it up in the dictionary: “crappy: (adj). Indicating that Chris Evans is included.”)
-
@dkf Billie Piper is a lot less crappy since she's not included Evans
-
Red Dwarf, naturally.
Now, sure, I'd either end up dead or still stuck for all eternity but smeg, it would be a laugh!
Also, I'd get to tell Rimmer he's a smeghead. Totally worth it.
-
The A Team. They're pros at getting suckas out of sticky situations
-
Doctor Snuggles. It may be my last chance to get even.
-
@Mikael_Svahnberg oh man, that fucking show.
I swear, the pitch for that show was probably: "Hey, let's show kids what it's like being on acid!"

Based on chances of being rescued and possibly turned into an inhuman, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Plus Coulson and his new hand are awesome. And don't forget The Cavalry, or Fitz-Simmons, or …

So glad my kids are out of that phase … at least until the new one is old enough for it.
-
@abarker Now I torture them with these songs that have gotten stuck in my head.
-
@boomzilla
Hopefully off-pitch and with the wrong words. Because it's not an official Dad Song unless it's butchered.
-
@izzion The words sound right to me. The important thing is that there's enough enthusiasm in the singing. If it'sme singing, off-pitch is pretty automatic.

24
Are you fucking insane? Your chances of surviving anything to do with Jack Bauer, in any capacity, in any role, are next to zero.
Incorrect. It's a fact that everyone in 24 falls into one of two buckets: Those who die, and those who fake dying and come back to life when it's convenient to the plot, even if the writers originally intended to keep the character dead. I would hope to serve the latter.

You should try singing the words from another song. That irks the living daylight out of my kids.

Never saw Gilligans Island. Is that the one where Sandy and Bud find a stranded mammal and become friends with it?
