Dumb Reality Show Ideas

I can't get over the dumbethness of the shit that is airing in the break room when I go in. Today was "Christina's Court": a courtroom presided over by a ninny. So I thought, I can do this shit. So can you. I'll start.. Celebrity Court Each week a different fringe celeb dying for some exposure picks up the gavel and robe --- and maybe a wig --- and metes out justice on some pair of bickering everyday fools. "ALL RISE TO GREET HIS HONOR... DAVID CASSIDY!" Dumber than dirt, but it'd be a license to print money, with virtually no production costs beyond getting the celebrity onto the bench in a relatively sober state. And you'd get the comic image of some poor sap having to abide by a sentence because of an arbitrary ruling by Charles Barkley or Soleil MoonFrye. if the nation is going look to Hollywood for moral leadership, let's give them a courtroom. Judges for Season One: C. Thomas Howell Billy Ocean Jennifer Gray Mike Ditka Justine Bateman Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake Gene Simmons Joe Piscopo Marsha Warfield Charlene Tilton

Jennifer Gray got her nose fixed and never worked again. Whoopsie. I would watch that show in a minute. But only for a minute. I like this thread... Here's my idea. SO YOU THINK YOU CAN GOVERN Turn the tables on these shows, by having the crew of a fast food restaurant in the middle of nowhere, say, an Arby's in Tennessee, go to Washington and make command decisions in the White House for a week. The manager gets the Oval Office and the rest of the staff fleshes out the Executive staff and cabinet. Think "West Wing," manned by retards and GEDs, surly teens and go-nowhere adults. Let them sign and veto laws, take over the cabinet departments, interact with foreign dignitaries and generally have a hilarious time while simultaneously sodomizing the nation's future. It's must see TV! (The sitting President and cabinet can go on vacation, or maybe become the primary players in some other reality show yet to be pitched in this very thread.)

Oh, by the way, Vic Sage, I hope you'll represent us if any of these pitches makes it to the small screen.

They have a show on Comedy Central called, I think 'The Supreme Court of Comedy'. Its a People's Court-type show except - and here's the kicker - the judge is a comedian, and both 'attornies' are comedians. I watched it on the plane last week. Hilarity did not ensue. As to Fman's idea. This movie... Posits that your premise will one day actually happen.

Quite possibly from the people who brought you The Amazing Race: Celebrity Subway Scavenger Hunt Teams of two celebrities compete in a contest to cover the entire NYC subway system. Along the way they must earn bonus points for finding certain objects at certain stations throughout the system. (For instance, at the Mets/willets point stop, you must find and shake hands with Mr. Met). The first to reach the finish line (the final stop of their journey) having earned all their bonuses wins. Our teams of celebrities include: - The Tuckerberries (if they're still alive) - Todd Zeile and Robin Ventura - Hammer and Vanilla Ice - Any two of the Dixie Chicks - Keith Olbermann and Dan Patrick - Lynda Carter and Jaclyn Smith - Sergeant Slaughter and The Iron Sheikh - Hurley and Miles from Lost Hosted by Rock Rote.

Now this may be the cocktails talking, but I think this has potential. MIDGETS DRY HUMPING Don't know how much description this requires. Set small people lose on the world, and then have them leg-screwing random people and objects. Funnier if they are dressed up in historical periodic attire. Nothing says funny like a midget, dressed up as a 1870's cowboy, fucking a mailbox.

I don't think the English language has one word that properly describes my reaction to Fman's post. Maybe "guilt-guffaw" or "LOLersplat."
