Reality TV I'd Like to See

[jamesq]

Reality TV, or as we used to call them, game shows. They've been around for a few years and from observation I know that most of my friends don't watch them. But what would you watch?

Room of Knives and Money - Ten people walk in, the lights shut off, one person crawls out. Obviously this would require numerous infrared cameras that are impervious to blood stains.

Survivor - A new take on the classic show. Simply tell the contestants that nobody gets the prize if more then one of them are alive at the end of the season.

There are also the shows that follow people around during their professional lives. American Chopper, Dog the Bounty Hunter. But lets follow other professions, like high end escort. Family Business is awfully close to this, but I still haven't seen it.

I'd like to see a combination of Mythbusters and all those home improvement shows. They could go into supposedly haunted houses and pick apart why it's actually weird geography/shoddy construction/bored teenagers that are causing the paranormal activity.

Any other ideas?

Comuppance...hidden camera crews observe people treating waiters, tech support, clerks, and various other service industry people like shit, and exact a fitting comuppance (possibly voted on by an audience).

Oh, and my favourite from Family Guy: "Fast Animals, Slow Children". *g*

I've always thought that Survivor should be like this:

Contestents are dropped in the middle of the hinterland with only the clothes on their backs and a small knife.

First one back to civilization is the winner...

So, the reality TV version of Scooby Doo?

Apparently all my cool ideas were already had by Hanna-Barbera. Next you'll be telling me my idea to create a rock and roll band with a shark as the drummer has been taken too.
