Ideas that would probably end up as a reality TV show

Post by Asst. Asst. Lt. Cmdr. Smi »

1. Man or Woman? Someone comes on, and the panel of three contestants has to guess whether they're a man or a woman. At the end of the round, the person drops their pants to reveal a penis/vagina. Contestants that guess right win money, and go on to the next round. Being blantant Lowest-Common-Denominator crap, it will get a primetime slot on FOX. After getting record ratings, makind will be officially declared "Doomed".

2. Are You Hot? Senior Edition The search for the sexiest man and woman over 65. Despite causing vomiting in all the viewers, it is a ratings bonanza.

3. American Juniors: The Ripoff Desperate to cash in on the "most talented kid" genre, and unable to find a title, a network comes up with this. Nobody minds what the title insists.

Feel free to submit your own.

Firing Squad

Contests come on and select five weapons at random from a table covered with various firearms. Those are given to a firing squad. The contestant then is tied to a poll and shot with their weapons. If they're lucky they are likely the guns hold blanks. If there unlikely they get hit and badly bruised by rubber bullets, live ammo once ratings drop.

Landmine

Ten people are taken to an Angolan field and have to race across it to grab a prize. Where are the mines? Only the producers know.

Can't we just put them all on the same island and then nuke it?

Backstage: Essentially, Noises Off as a TV show. Follow the exploits of a stage production as it goes through audtiions, rehearsals, tech run-thru, and then finally, opening night, where the production is televised for all the world to see.

As long as I'm the Stage Manager.

Climbing for dollars, where the contestant has to climb ropes and pull cash off along the way while he is sprayed with scalding steam. If he drops he is mauled by maneating dobermans.

Wait, my executive producer just informed me that I should call the show "Copyright Infringment" instead.

I think Simon Barber found a good idea:

1985 House Your (stereo)typical high school kid and 9 of his friends must live like they did in a time before iPods and Internet.

Celebrity Dictator Five "celebrities" (E-list, of course) seize control of a war-torn third-world country and try to rebuild it. One by one, celebrities are overthrown in a violent and bloody coup until only one remains. The winner is also deposed and executed.

American Creationist: The Search For the Next Kent Hovind As the title insists, a panel of judges chooses the most dishonest person they can find with a nice suit and impessive-sounding credentials from a diploma mill.

Celebrity Cults Another attempt to extend the careers of people who barely pass as celebrities, each contestant starts their own religion, and whoever has the most followers at the end of the season wins. The following seasons depict the religion's rise from 2-bit hokey cult to 3-bit hokey cult to 4-bit hokey cult.

War! - the show where you not only watch, in live action, the bullets fly, but contestants are randomly given command of various battalions in the field, be they allied forces or enemy forces. Should the contestant fail in his or her duties as a commander, they are to be held captive at the mercy of their troops.

You say that but I saw the other day flipping channels on FOX actually I think a game show where in the part I saw the contestant was trying to pick the female out of a line up. It was not an easy choice either a bunch of severely obese people rounded out the line up, and it made me sick. Why did I not skip that show you ask and continue channel surfing? because it was like a fucking car wreck, you can help but look.

Chicken!: Live: Why mess with the classics? Two contestants race headlong at each other on a straight track. First to turn, stop, or drop below the designated speed loses. Round one starts at $10000 and the minimum speed is 40mph for each car. Round two is $20000 and 50mph, and so on up to 140mph. In case of a crash, the drivers (or their next of kin) split the prize money and go home/to the hospital/to the morgue. The bonus round is for up to $1,000,000. The surviving driver who advanced the furthest drives along railroad tracks towards a freight train running at full speed. Prize money increases the closer you get to the train. If you time it right, you can grab the million and get off the tracks so the train JUST brushes your rear fender. Next of kin gets all the prize money if you don't make the turn in time.
