fighting: the next new reality TV craze?

[SevenStar]

While I was at the gym today, I heard something interesting - the brain behind 'survivor' and 'the apprentice' is working with sugar ray leonard to create a reality show called 'the contender'

[Oso]

could be cool....

i actually liked the 'tough enough' series when it came out.

those kids worked their butts off.

[Vash]

I'd like to see something along those lines, provided they just keep all of the creative editing and scene set-ups to a minimum.

. . . Actually, given thsoe standards, I imagine it's going to suxors! :eek:

[David Jamieson]

They should format it along the lines of american idol. :D

the tryouts would be hilarious!

and william hung would undoubtedly choke out many contenders because He Bangs!!! He Bangs!!! Oh Baby!

[blooming lotus]

that sounds very cool...If I had a TV set where I could understand the Language properly..I'd definately check it out..:p

[rubthebuddha]

and the big question -- would anyone be surprised to see buster douglas' name on the applicant list. :D

[Shaolinlueb]

i was not told to say anyhting but im the winner. a 175lb skinny white dude who does TMA, not MMA. :o :D ;) :p

[David Jamieson]

shaolin is an mma by definition though! more than 200 styles (900 if you do SD:eek: :D ) all ranges, stand up, ground, china na, weapons, iron skills, it's got it all man!

and unless you are more than 6 ft tall, 175 ain't that skinny. :D

[Pork Chop]

7*
I thought I read something about that.
They stock up fighters for each weight division and then kinda create their own org to develop talent with winners from each season.
Like their pros wouldn't just shoot over to WBC or IBF or something like that; it'd be more of an ongoing, in house thing.

[Goldenmane]

Gold@mmit, Wall, ya beat me to it.

For the rest of ya, wall's on the money.

And... like all Reality TV, it's almost certainly gunna suck major brownhole.

[David Jamieson]

oh man, I wonder if they'd let an older guy like me in!

I would like to do something like that before I get too too old.

you know, for the money and all. :D

Wow. That sounds cool. I get bored with reality tv shows. But this one I'd tried to keep with when it airs.

Actually, hopefully, they wouldn't allow any Canuks.

[red5angel]

if it were in canada NP they'd have to since they are communist.

[Face2Fist]

it will be a cool show. maybe they show have a reunion like 5 yrs later to see how much brain damage they have.

i would prefer a MMA reality show.

[norther practitioner]

lol...

I thought they were socialists.

[GeneChing]

...only without so much titilation. well, at least not for straight guys
Our resident movie reviewer Dr. Craig Reid was working on a project that was a reality-based stunt man show, but unfortunately it didn't go through. I imagine such things are hard to insure. He's still working on it, so it might still come to be.

[norther practitioner]

I imagine such things are hard to insure.

Ya think... geez, it'd prob. be near impossible to afford.

[David Jamieson]

I'm starting to think some of our Murcan cousins don't like to play with us because we play rough. :D

That's ok.

btw, according to a certain thread which I will not name and a certain poster who i also will not name, we up north here are actually Nazi's.

Now, I don't agree with this at all. Near as I can tell, we live in a pretty decent democracy up here.

I would now like to turn turn your attention to http://www.copvcia.com

Psyche! LOL

[red5angel]

NP, why you have to differentiate?

KL, it wasn't that canada was ful of nazi's, we all know their communist, it was that you are a nazi. pay attention!

[norther practitioner]

I guess I was just calling a tangerine an orange...:D

[red5angel]

well you live in colorado, which is practically Canada anyway so all is forgiven.

[norther practitioner]

:confused:

You live so much closer...:p


Geez, I bet you even have that annoying Canuk accent.
eh

[red5angel]

yah you betcha!

[David Jamieson]

that's a japanese guy living in minnesota accent. not even close.
and i believe the conspiracy was that our entire country is run by escaped nazis, with the direct inference to me be a membert of the ku klux klan with nazi tendencies.

anyway...
