Wherein I pitch an idea for a kickass TV show

[Mister_Rik]

I just watched the Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles episode where Cameron takes ballet lessons. That prompted me to check Summer Glau’s IMDB bio:

@IMDB

She’s been a prima ballerina most of her life.

And then I remembered Ziyi Zhang:

@IMDB

Graduated from the Beijing Dance Academy

With that in mind let’s try this:

Coming this fall on FOX! Ziyi Zhang (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hero, Memoirs of a Geisha) and Summer Glau (Firefly, Serenity, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles) team up in the new, action-packed crime drama, “The Black Swans: Pas de Deux”, as deep-cover FBI agents investigating the dark underbelly of professional ballet and its ties to organized crime! Prima ballerinas by day, butt-kicking crimefighters by night!

Sooooooo … think it’ll fly?

I have the idea for a true kick ass reality show, one that even I would watch.
First you get a bunch of bridezillas who are packing a few extra pounds and are having a hard time fitting into their wedding dresses. They want to lose weight QUICK.

Then you introduce them to R. Lee Emery. (caution sound on the intro page) R. Lee then does your basic Marine Corps drill instructor routine and whips these bridezillas into shape.

I’m telling you, this would be a fucking great show.

It needs something to put a little sparkle in it. Think we can work in some hot girl-on-girl action?

Looks like Chez Guevara’s post got eaten by today’s database problem, so I’ll quote it from the Reply Notice e-mail:

@Chez Guevara

After filming Hell’s Kitchen there must be a stack of dirty dishes and pots & pans to clean. When the contestants have finished for the day Gordon Ramsey wheels in another batch of ‘celebrities’ who must demonstrate their dish-washing capabilities by hand (no automatic dishwashers allowed) and the person who gets his or her pots etc. the cleanest is allowed to go home.

As the series progresses those remaining obviously have to clean an ever increasing number of dishes until the last person left has to wash up every pot, pan, plate, glass, knife, and fork in the place on their own. The line up for Series 1 is still under consideration but I have contacted the following persons to gauge their interest:

Paris Hilton.

I am convinced this will be a winner and if anyone steals this idea I will be very, very cross.

As a professional dishwasher, I would watch that show.

Tried posting this twice before: Ermey also played the law guy in “Texas Chainsaw Massacre.” I bet Leatherface could motivate the bridezillas.
