I don’t remember who first suggested it, but I’d watch a reality show where fathers of young children have to take care of them themselves for a month. No wives, mothers, or any other helplful female friends to pitch in.

You try grocery shopping with a baby, a toddler, and an active five-year-old, pal.

Been done, sort of. The BBC did a documentary/docu-soap in 2005 about a village where men had to survive a week without women: *The Week The Women Went *. The format has been adapted in the Netherlands, Belgium and Canada as far as I know.

Yeah, because in the real world men never help out with this kind of thing. :rolleyes:

Some sort of cross between Beauty and the Geek and America’s Next Top Porn Star.

I see reality shows/documentaries showing the life of rock stars, singers, rock groups, etc. but are mostly male dominated. So we see a lot of sex, drugs, fights, etc. I’d love to see a show from the perspective of a FEMALE rock singer/band to see what really goes on. Is is still sex, drugs, and fights or is it a totally different dynamic for women musicians?

Actually, in all seriousness, I think a show where teams of world-class athletes compete in a sequence of made up but basically serious sports… so they have to invent the strategies and skills necessary to play this particular sport on the fly… would be quite entertaining.

Or how about Calvinball: The reality show.

Tiny House would be so awesome.

Yes! I was so disappointed when I saw that commercial and discovered the “surprise” ending. I would have watched that show.

Pro Celebrity boxing.

I’d pay good money to watch Oscar de la Hoya vs. Tom Cruise.

America’s Next President. Register a third pary in each state and then have an American Idol type competition where the public gets to vote on who is eliminated. Winner is the third party’s cadidate.

I like it!

How about a new Rock of Love, except the star is George Michael and all the contestants are male?

Cat House. People move (one or two at a time) into a house with 70 kitties and have to feed, litter, and care for all 70 as well as keeping the premises clean enough to pass surprise inspections and keeping the cats from killing each other.

I soooooo thought this was gonna be something else…

Can I get a gloss here?

Model, Actress, Whatever. Hot babes.

If not for the fact that sources of copper and tin ores might be hard to find, I’d like to see a Survivor-type show where the focus is on how far a knowledgable group can take their settlement instead of wasting their time on mini-games and back-stabbing.

I remember something like this on PBS a while ago. It was a “House” series like “Frontier House” and “1900 House” and each one lasted like 3 months. I remember one of them that was supposed to be set back in medieval days where in one episode they had to extract Iron from ore. It wasn’t an elimination and I don’t think there was a big prize, it was just groups of families that were trying to survive they way they would have in that particular period. And it wasn’t just individuals, it was also husbands and wives and their children participating. Very entertaining. Except for 1900 house. I didn’t like that one much.

Personally I’d like to see a bunch of scuzzy,belly scratching,toothless degenerates from different settings living together in a tiny little trailer. Throw some backwoods trash with some city trash and some small town trash and it doesn’t matter if they are from the north, east, south or west, as long as they are trashy and dirty and missing a few teeth.

Thank you! I should have thought of Urban Dictionary.

Folsom Prison CEO’s- Can Dick Fuld make a prison shank? What will Martin Sullivan do to avoid being the courtyard punk? Will Lee Raymond join the Crypts or the Bloods?

It’s called a Reality Show. Let Shagnasty be the early favorite, there’re still going to be a dozen dads who will provide the hilarity.

Ooooh, me too.

How about Tonya Harding and Paula Jones? It’s gotta be on YouTube somewhere.

CBC (Canadian TV) did that. It was called “The Week The Women Went”

I would like to see top athletes compete against other top athletes at their chosen sport. Particularly the games of Baseball and Football. Now that would be truly great reality TV.

Don’t they already have this? The All-Star game and the Pro Bowl?

You’d think there were no fathers out there who had taken care of their children.

You want me to take care of the baby? Fuck, may as well give me the money now. No sweat.
