A Game Of Late Night Thrones

While the true history is about four straight white men fighting over the job of making small talk with bored celebrities, there's nothing in this fantastical retelling that requires anyone play the same race, gender or orientation of the real people. The bolder the casting choice, the funnier it will play, as opposed to having people try to do impersonations. With clever costuming and makeup, a small cast can do the show similar to how they performed Monty Python's Spamalot.
