From the Past
Since Pakistani openers are still finding life hard, India's capitulation in South Africa has led to calls for Ganguly's return again, racial slurs have moved from Gibson to Richards ...the following list (which was compiled some time back) still holds with some additions...

Ten Reality Shows I Would Like to See

Before the reality show craze fizzles away...

10. Pakistani Opener: Inzamam, Bari and Woolmer go from village to village looking for opening batsmen. They choose 16 openers who face a battery of fast bowlers every week. Inzamam, Bari, Woolmer and a guest cricketer comment on each player’s game. Pakistan votes by calling in for their favorite opener. The winner gets to play in the test team for six months until the new opener is chosen.

9. Survivor: Ganguly: Two Indian camps (Those for and against bringing back Ganguly) slug it out. Cameras follow the players (which in this case are the players and the administrators: Chappell, Dravid, Sharad Pawar, Dalmiya, Niranjin Shah, Kiren More etc.) in each camp until the next world cup. Each week one of the administrators is taken out because of some stupidity. Ganguly makes it or not depending on the last man standing.

8. The Amazing Racist: Mel Gibson, Ehud Olmert, Hasan Nasrallah, Dick Cheney, Ralph Reed, Ann Coulter, David Duke, Pat Robertson, Ahmadinijad, Paul Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld, Lindey England, Michael Richards and others throw comments at each other to see who is the amazing racist. Oh wait this one has already been done.

7. Straight Eye for the Queer Guy: Ralph Reed, Pat Robertson, Jimmy Swaggart and Jerry Falwell are the Judges. People passing on the street are brought in front of the judges. The judges talk to them and decide who is gay and who is not.

6. WMD Hunt: Bush "travels" from country to country in search of WMDs with his WMD sniffing pooch Tony. Wait I don't want to see that one.

5. Ann and Sean: A love story: Sean Hannity tries a career in music calling himself by the name S. Hity. Ann Coulter becomes his wife taking on the name Ann Hannity. Ann dresses up in leather and takes a whip to S. Hity. They fight and since divorce is out of the question one of them ends up killing the other.

4. Geraldo leads an expedition up Mt. Ararat to find Noah’s Ark.

3. The Simple Life: When Nicole asks the parent of a fifteen year old (whom she is baby sitting) whether he needs to be breast fed the parent replies yes rather than being shocked.

2. Rice juggles teaching courses at Liberty University and Bob Jones University while also performing janitorial duties.

1. The Dada Life: First there was the Real Life (bunch of "common" folk put together), then came the Surreal life (bunch of has been celebs put together) and now the Dada Life where celebs are underlings to common folks or under celebs. Some examples: Tiger caddies for high school jock, Federer is a ball boy at a Kournikova exhibition match, McGrath runs in with water for Shahid Nazir).
