Next Big Brother....
Jun. 8th, 2007 10:54 am... so here's the idea. Take a dozen or so of the usual misfits, chuck them in a house for 10 weeks or whatever it is. Usual production team making up pointless and barbaric rules as they go along.
And don't screen any of it.
When the housemates nominate evictees, the one chucked out is selected by the toss of a coin. They go outside to find a waiting taxi. When they get in you might film five minutes of their expression as you tell them that they haven't been on TV for the last how long. You whisk them home and don't broadcast the resulting 30 minutes of total footage for at least two years.
For added bonuses the capricious producers can repeatedly lower the prize money (because it's clearly not about the prize money anyway, that wouldn't be Keeping It Real, would it?) until the value of "winning"* is 15 bob.
Now, I'd pay to not see _that_.
* The only way to win is not to play the game.
