Reality Show Bounty Hunter

A game show designed to muck up reality shows

Five contestants are given ten thousand dollars each (which they cannot keep for themselves) which is to be used to travel the world for 3 months in the effort of trying to assert themselves into the taping of other reality shows.

Contestant one may charter a plane to try to trip up the Amazing Race (steal the envelopes) then fly to Kansas City and get arrested by COPS.

Contestant two goes to Pearl Island and puts itching powder in all the survivor clothes then hightails it to big brother, where he/she releases a swarm of bees into the house.

Contestant three steals the maggot pizza from Fear Factor and dumps it in the stew at Millionaire

The winner wins the respect of game show and reality show lovers the world over.

       Sponsored by a bail bond company, perhaps? (You'll need it as you will be bailing your contestants out of jail all the time).

       $10K for three months of international travel? Hard to do on $100/day or for three times that, even.

       How about this instead: a reality TV show with a guy standing in front of the camera, saying, "Switch it off! It's crap! You're melting your brain watching this shit. Go out, chat with your friends, get a life!"   

       Hmm, no. Baked by "Why Don't You..." on UK seventies TV.   

       I actually do like this idea of reality TV eating itself. I just wouldn't watch it.

       UnaBubba: That's very bad taste. It's sort of funny but could easily be taken the wrong way.

       Ah, sadly, this wouldn't work quite as broadly since the reality shows without audience interaction (like "Cops", "fear factor" or the "Amazing Race") have long finished taping by the time they're being shown. It's supposed to be "real", but it's far from "live".

       Oh bristolz, what a soft and pampered existence you lead. Obviously you wouldn't be able to fly first class or have your servants and retainers following you around (like you're used to) but $10k (about £5,500) should be enough for three months, if you cut down on the use of cosmetics. ;o)
