Since TV has pretty much become unwatchable for me (mostly due to "reality" television). I thought we could maybe come up with some ideas that would be worthy of watching, either new ideas or putting a new twist on an existing one. For example...
American Idol, hate it, can't stand it, wish it would go away. But, if whoever was voted off was tazed at the end of the show, in my opinion it would be worth watching.
Survivor-Cannibal Island. I see some real potential here.
A real life version of the game played in the movie "The Running Man" using captured Taliban and Al-Qaeda.
Of course, they don't all have to be rooted in violence, but it would be nice :D

some show concepts:
"Hey...who stole my liver"?
"What will happen if I eat that?"
"Saftey nets are for wussies"
"Cell-Block russian roulette"

"Safety Nets are for wussies" definitely has potential! I think "What will happen if I eat that" was once called "Fear Factor"
Good thinking.

We should definitely set up a meeting, I can't imagine Fox wouldn't jump at this one.

there's actually a legit email floating around out there from an ex fox new programming exec that lists about 100 or so shows that were pitched to them several years ago.....with complete titles and show explanations ......the thing is an absolute hoot.

I never watch regular programing on TV so imagine my surprise when I found out that "survivor" had nothing to do with the last person left alive.

Here's one:
Take a kid out of one of those Amazonian rain forest tribes and drop him into a penthouse-dwelling Manhattan family.
Pure comedic genius... Make sure you let him keep whatever implements he uses in day to day life.

"I Bet I Can Out Run a Lion"
"I Bet I Can Out Run a German Shepherd"
"I Bet That Snake Won't Bite Me"
"Al Khaida in Prison General Population: The Clock is Ticking"
"My Junk In Habenero Sauce: The Clock is Ticking"
"Terrorist Whack-A-Mole"
"Death Row Crap Game"

Why does TV need MORE reality shows. We should be trying to end this!

one of the ideas that I remember being pitched was a cat who wanted to acquire permission from various (and highly popular) hollywood restaurants and clubs...in the hopes of somehow installing 2 way mirrors in the ladies restrooms so as to catch their fem to fem chatter, drunkenness, and catty conversations and thereby shoot endless hilarity of said conversations.
he added that the ladies would be approached to sign releases if their stuff was tv worthy once they left the restroom...and that he would go out of his way to insure toilets were not shown.
the working title of the show was "Oh No You DIT'N"
I thought that one was a hoot.
-
"What will happen if i eat that?"
"Will this hurt if i eat it?"
"If i try to eat this will it try to eat me?"
And one i've discovered on my own but never filmed.
"I ate this after a hard night of drinking and the next morning i think it's killing me" :rofl

Lame Tim Allen movie reference...
And get a new avatard beside Bruce Willis in "The Jackel"... unless you just love the scene where he kisses that other dude.
