Well, my favourite show is Drake and Josh. And if that were a musical, I'd rip my own face off. So, I'll do my mother's favourite TV show (which, yes, I also used to watch a lot).

REBA!
Reba-- Uhhh... Reba McEntire. There is no other possibility.
Brock-- DOUGLAS. SILLS.
Barbra Jean-- My brother says Sutton Foster always reminds him of BJ. Maybe if she was in a fat suit?
Cheyenne-- Cheyenne Jackson! No, no, no. Sorry. Erm. Annaleigh Ashford.
Van-- Dude. I have no idea. Someone who is the equivalent of a younger Norbert Leo Butz.
Kyra-- Marissa... something? Plays teen Fiona in Shrek: The Musical?
Jake-- Trevor Braun

My favorite show is 24, but I think it would just ruin the entire series if it was made into a musical! It would be interesting to see Kiefer Sutherland sing though (not that he'd be any good!)

Revisiting this thread, I'm vastly amused to see someone tried to cast The Black Donnellys as a musical. See, when I watched The Black Donnellys, I mentally superimposed the Jonas brothers onto the cast, and that made it extra-hilarious for me.

So my Black Donnellys musical would be a horribly bastardised Disney Channel Original Movie affair, and we'd have:

Tommy Donnelly - Nick Jonas (the de facto leader; has a suspicious face)
Kevin Donnelly - Kevin Jonas (c'mon, they have the same name! They even freakin' LOOK the same!)
Sean Donnelly - Joe Jonas (the pretty one the girls go nutso for)

I get stuck around Jimmy Donnelly, because I don't like him at all and the only Jonas brother left is the 8 year old, so it stops working at this point. Nonetheless, I shall soldier on.

Jenny Reilly - Selena Gomez (Nick Jonas love interest)
Nadine - Demi Lovato (Joe Jonas love interest; Camp Rock holdover :P)
Joanie - Miley Cyrus (crack whore; no, really re: If your favorite TV show was turned into a Broadway musical,)

AND IT'S ALL STILL WORKING TOO WELL. SO WELL IN FACT THAT I HAVE TO STOP MYSELF BEFORE I FRIGHTEN MYSELF. Also I've not watched the Disney channel in a while so I wouldn't know who else is around at the moment to be cast. Except the Sprouse twins, and they'd be beaten up and dumped on a lonely road out of town before you could say "sorry dudes, there's no appropriate roles for you in this enterprise". Also I'd feel dirty trying to find a Disney channel actor to replace the criminally hot Kirk Acevedo.

America's Next Top Model: The Musical

Tyra Banks: Saycon Sengbloh
J. Alexander: Andre Ward
Jay Manuel: Jai Rodriguez
Janice Dickinson: Sherie Rene Scott

the show could be a bit like A Chorus Line, and they should replace Janice's character with Twiggy without anyone mentioning anything as if it never happened.

Oh and my Sex and the City cast.. still needs a bit of work, but

Carrie: Julia Murney
Samantha: Sherie Rene Scott (wow, i can't believe i cast her in 2 roles considering i don't particularly like her)
Charlotte: Becky Gulsvig
Miranda: Eden Espinosa
