As the title says, come up with an idea for a TV show, give a synopsis, and how well you think it would do.
Here's my idea:
A show where you take an island (or if you can't find one, any area with a lot of places to hide and is virtually impossible to get out of), rig it with hidden cameras, take sixteen people, put them in the area, and have a bunch of people hunt them down with non-lethal weapons (Like paintball guns, or something). Contestants will be given only a knife, and will have to hunt and cook their own food and build their own shelter. The first person shot will recieve $100, and prize money will increase until you reach the last person standing, who will win $1,000,000.
I see it as taking several hour-long "episodes" to hunt down each party, with about 2-3 parties being put on the island a season. However, I see it as being estremely unlikely, as there will be huge-ass concerns with contestant safety, and setting something like it up would be difficult.
My other idea is some crime drama with a sitcom element thrown in for comic relief, like a cross between "Law & Order" and "Seinfeld". I don't find that likely either, as if it isn't written correctly, it's going to end up being cliched, cheesy, and unenjoyable.

I think there should be a reality TV game show called "Smash TV" where contestants shoot their way through convicts and mutants for fabulous cash and prizes. "Big prizes! Big cash! I love it!"

Guys With Guns
As the title suggests. Just people with guns wasting stuff. Plot optional.

Crackhouse. 12 crack addicts live together in a house. Each possesses a switchbldae, and there is only one rock of crack. Surprise twist at the end is that he has to pick between two rocks, one of crack and one anthrax. And the really big twist is that they are both anthrax.

They should just follow Reality to it's conclusion: Who wants to marry a Jerry Springer guest?
Or have a camera crew follow midget prostitutes on a race around the world.
