I just had a Genius Idea!

As we know, the Writers strike in Hollywood has been a big topic lately. The networks are frantic trying to figure out what to do. How will they make ends meet? How will they fill out their weekly lineups?

The thing they have going for them now, that they didn't have the last time there was a strike is Reality TV. Reality TV does NOT (and this should be pretty obvious to all) use writers. So they will not be affected by the strike. So the networks may want to create even more Reality based shows to fill in for the others.

Thats where my idea comes in. I have created a few new Reality competitions that will help the Networks in two ways.

1. So you Think You can Write for Television
2. America's Next Top Television Writer
3. Who Wants to be a Television Writer

and my favorite one...

Television Writing with the Stars

where 10 Writing Professors from Prestigious Film Schools team up with 10 Superstar Actors and Talk Show hosts and attempt to teach them to write their own material.

C'mon Networks, this could work. At the very least, this post could make a decent monologue joke. I'm available.
