Help! Tv ideas needed
 
in a couple weeks, a producer for MTV is coming into our video production class so that we may propose ideas for a new television show on MTV. If you were to propose a new idea for an MTV show, what would be a good idea to you?

An idea will be chosen and given to his superiors, if that is chosen, I may get a chance to be a producer for the new show. so lets come up with a winning idea, and I'll tell you what happens!

A show that follows Reggie Fils Anime, and documents his daily life, including kicking ass and taking names.

No seirously, tell them to actually play music on their TV station.

Then you, my friend, know nothing of corporations, and marketing.


You want less Pokemon? BAM! New pokemon shows and movies, and spin-offs.

You want less Survivor-like shows? BAM! They pop up like herpes on a hooker.

You want less reality TV because thats all TV really is now? BAM! Every show will now have an elimination thing in it to make it reality, to try and boost ratings because nothing wants to be different.



EDIT: Wait...this is an idea for a show on MTV? How about one that actually plays music?

Have there been fake reality shows satirizing the genre? I just know of Drawn Together. Don't actually watch TV (aside from Lost and JLU) so I'm clueless as to what's been done. Didn't MTV used to have a whole bunch of toons like Aeon Flux? Hmm, an inspection of their tv schedule at their website has brought on some dry heaving. Anything you could pitch them would be better.

I believe another was The Joe Schmo Show.

Yeah... I love reality TV, because putting normal people in exotic locations and/or abnormal situations is SO normal. If that isn't promoting a sense of "reality" then I don't know what does. :rolleyes:

Youd be flat out lying if you said youve never laughed at that show. I dont like admiting it, but I do find myself watching that kid and laughing.

How about the hit spin off of "Pimp My Ride"


Ride My Pimp, where random prostitutes found on the streets pay big fat people to ride the pimp until he breaks his back. Give it a Mountain Dew sponsor and you've got reality TV gold.
