What I Want On TV

I was watching “Survivor” on Channel 5 last Friday, and during the commercial, an ad for “Fear Factor: Thanksgiving Special” came up. Seeing snippets of them eating all those disgusting stuff really makes me think: is it really worth it, going through all those torturing to “win” the money? I say, you friggin’ deserve the money the minute you dip your hands into an aquarium filled with tarantula!

However, no matter how they flip and turn and fill the show with twists, it’s always the same: In “Survivor” people get cast away on some supposedly deserted place, and they all try to kick one another out of the game; In “Fear Factor”, the contestants do something gruesome. The loser gets humiliated, and the winner gets to eat more worms, or century eggs. It all seems so cliché these days.

What I would really want to see is all the big names from reality television on “Survivor”. They can call it “Survivor: Reality Show Special”. Gather all of the big names from reality shows like Jeff Probst (“Survivor”), Simon Cowell, (“American Idol”), Phil Keoghan (“Amazing Race”), Ryan Seacrest (“American Idol”), Joe Rogan (“Fear Factor”), David Letterman (“The Late Show”), Roslan (“Malaysian Idol”), Donald Trump (“The Apprentice”), Martha Stewart (“The Apprentice: Martha Stewart”), Janice Dickinson (“America’s Next Top Model”), Carmen Elektra (“Manhunt”) and of course: Mark Brunett (the creator of “Survivor”).

I can just see the tagline: “12 reality show celebs, marooned on an island, will they survive?” (I highly doubt it.) The show can be hosted by that bitch from “Survivor: Outback”, Jerri.

Then, right after that season ended, we can have an episode of “Fear Factor: Reality Show Host Special” where Joe Rogan (“Fear Factor”), Donald Trump (“The Apprentice”), Simon Cowell, (“American Idol”), Roslan (“Malaysian Idol”), Jeff Probst (“Survivor”), David Letterman (“The Late Show”), Phil Keoghan (“Amazing Race”), and Mark Brunett. The show can be hosted by any winner from the “Fear factor” series. Now it’s his, or her, turn to make those reality show hosts suffer.

Now that’s what I call quality TV!
