Make your own game show/reality show...What would it be like?

I was thinking last night about an all-charity show.

People would come on the show and could earn money by doing stunts based on audience choices.

Things like: We'll give your charity $100 if you're willing to dive head-first into this tank of jello.

What would your show be like?

1. mine was stolen

I had a great idea: Casting Call. It would simply be comprised of audition tapes of people trying out for various reality shows. Cheap, easy, lots of footage. Plenty of theme episodes, where you can focus on one show, or people who made it; you could add commentary about why this person did or did not make it, etc.

About a week after I proposed this idea on a Survivor board I post to, an announcement came out that this very show is being done. :eyes:

2. I would take 1 top musician

from each of the top genres out there and have them live in a house together for 6 or more weeks.

I randomly picked names for a cast.

R&B-Usher
Rap-DMX
Country-Toby Keith
Pop-Jessica Simpson
Rock-Hell I don't know, maybe someone from Good Charlotte.

It would be interesting to see what happens with people from different musical backgrounds would interact with each other.

4. A new version of the GE College Bowl.

That show was very challenging. The questions asked were hard...much more difficult than those on "Jeopardy"

5. Survivor Baghdad. . .

Show what Riverbend & Salam Pax, a Sunni & Shi'ite cleric, a taxi driver, a few unemployed former Iraqi security workers, a couple mercenaries (oops. . .ahem, I meant to say "contractors"), a few MP's have to endure in a weeks time.

Expose what's really going on over there and wake the sheeple up!!!

6. I detest both types of shows, but I suggest "Who Wants to Be a Whore?"

Let's cut thru the pretense of these shows and get to the heart of it--contestants, you have to sleep with someone not even remotely attractive, on videotape, and for your full night of gnarly love you get a half million dollars. Then you can double that amount by sleeping with someone even more revolting, and so on. The johns were be a hodge podge of the misshapen and oozing, with the occasional deposed ruthless dictator and tobacco exec thrown in for good measure.
