A question

[emmagrant01]

If you were offered a chance to be on a "reality show" on TV, would you do it?

Yes, I'm asking for a reason... :-P

ETA: Doesn't involve eating bugs as far as I know. They just knocked on my door yesterday. They're coming back today to do a screen test...

It really depends.
What's the goal of the show, and is there any way it could be twisted unfairly (what was that American Idol mockery?). What network's going to be showing it -- I think FOX has more of a reputation for nasty embarrassing gotchas than the other channels.
Read the paperwork carefully, but if you want to, best of luck!

Heheh. Not Fox! It's a really nice idea for a show -- at least, on the surface. There could be something sneaky going on, for all I know.

I'm not sure how much you can reveal with confidentiality agreements and everything, but who's the production company? May want to check what other shows they've produced before (and possibly read interviews with people who were on their earlier shows) to see how those turned out for the participants.

Sorry, I've been in research-geek mode all weekend...

That's a good idea, actually. Thanks! I'm not sure who the production company is (all the paperwork has been with the network itself), but I can probably find out.

Talk to a lawyer the minute someone gives you lawyerish papers!!!!
