We should do one of those reality shows. Anyone have a good idea for something?

I remember the idea for another Survivor All-Stars being thrown around... Oh... A year or so ago. And Robert DeNiro's Mole was going to be hosted by Jeremy and Kevbo right after All-Stars 1. But I doubt that will ever come to fruition, since... Well, you know why.

A new Survivor could work, depending on who's hosting. Ido(A)l was a bad idea made by a stupid person and probably shouldn't ever be done again. The ALprentice was pretty good, if only for the fact that we got a mod or two out of it.

There's not much of a list for new shows that we could logistically (although some would require a DAMN lot of figuring out) do: Big Brother, The Amazing Race, The Biggest Loser, 16 And Pregnant, Iron Chef, The Bachelor.

So I dunno. We could stick with the classics, or we could make a new one.

We should do a version of The Bachelor or The Bachelorette where one most eligible bachelor has 10 ladies vying for his affection or vice versa, but it's all Weird Al related of course.

Hmmm... That might actually work.

We've already got a song based around girls vying for a guys attention, but he rejects them due to minuscule imperfections... I'm thinking this may work well, depending on how it's set up.

The more I think about this, the more I think this could work, with some slight modifications. :think:

The only hurdle I'm seeing is getting contestants. It really depends on who's interested in playing, and seeing as how this forum is practically dead in the water, there might be a struggle to get enough people together. How many do we normally have for Survivor? 12? Are there even 12 people that show up on the forum on a regular basis anymore?

Anybody interested in a Weird Al based fantasy sports type game?

Each "team manager" would draft a roster of songs and they'll receive points based on certain achievements, and the most points over a set period of time would win the game.

I don't have things down (For instance, I don't know how points would be awarded and what for), so suggestions are welcome. But I am doing a draft "pool" of eligible songs and "fantasy rankings" just in case.

Let's hear it...I'd love to time this with the start of baseball season (It wouldn't go as long though...don't worry)
You have quickly thought up such matchless phrase?
