I want to make a sit-com
Standard family, usual sit-commy type things. Nothing ground breaking, not even really overly funny. Maybe erring on the side of cheesy.
BUT.....
every episode, never acknowledged, somewhere in the background, the same extra can be seen. He may just be passing by, may be sitting in a booth at a restaurant the family is eating at, checking the mailbox in the apartment complex they live in, maybe delivering a pizza. Or as they walk down the street, he's walking behind them, about half a block away. Sometimes, he'll intentionally turn to look at the family as they walk by on the street. Occasionally he'll scowl at them. Creepy background events, subtle, only noticeable if you know what you're looking for.
The very end of the first season finale, like while the end credits are rolling, late at night, everyone's asleep, the house is quiet. The front door slowly opens, and he quietly walks in to the house. Fade to black.
Season two starts and the entire premise of the show changes to straight out horror with the random background dude being the antagonist.
