Lame TV Show Makeover!

Bored by what was on TV, I decided to revamp the ideas behind several popular reality shows.

$40 a Day
Lame: $40 for one woman to eat out in a day.
Interesting: $40 for a family of 4 to eat out in a day.

Survivor
Lame: Win prizes to survive in the "wilderness."
Interesting: Survive off of minimum wage, no food stamps, and four years of college debt in NYC.

American Idol
Lame: Compete in sing-offs to get a CD contract.
Interesting: Compete in a series of costume contests to see who can best pull off Billy Idol's look.

Criss Angel Mindfreak
Lame: Magic tricks performed right before your eyes.
Interesting: Magic used to bring people back from the dead.

Hell's Kitchen
Lame: A British chef yells at members of cooking teams while they attempt to appease his demands.
Interesting: It's cooking hour with Lucifer! Dishes so spicy they could only be fried by the fires of hell.

Jersey Shore
Lame: Orange "guidos" from the East Coast are stuffed into houses, bars, and cars and get paid large sums of money to scream at each other.
Interesting: Short video clips of the New Jersey shoreline.

Iron Chef
Lame: Two chefs use a specific ingredient to make the tastiest dishes for random judges who wander in off the streets.
Interesting: Two chefs use a specific ingredient and an iron to make the tastiest, flattest dishes for anorexic judges.
