Next hit reality show

Okay I have several ideas.

Real Housewives: Generations
Most of the women in this franchise have children and I can say that because I've seen at least a little of each of the iterations of this show. Now these shows have been going on long enough that some of the children are 18 and some are even in their 30s because they started off this show as teenagers. Can you imagine if there was a show that was just the children of some of the housewives? Think of all of the past and history that could be brought up on these shows (and you know how the real housewives like to bring these up). What does Gia have to say about that crazy christening? Does the next generation follow in the feuds of their mothers? What family drama is there? Do Lauren and Lexi speak when their mothers don't? Anyways, I just think this is going to happen one day because I don't see this franchise slowing down at all and so many of the children are of the right age group now or will be of the right age group soon. So get ready to see those kids you saw as adorable, bright-eyed children flip tables and call each other bitches.

Are You the One?: Everyone is Bi
So Are You the One? was once great trash TV. I loved it dearly and watched it habitually. I think a season where everyone is bisexual (or pan or queer or whatever as long as they could potentially be matched with everyone else on the show) would be epic. MTV fans would be fine with their being queer people on their reality TV so I don't see a fall out there. Now, there would have to be a few things to make the game easier for the contestants as their would be way too many possibilities. One option could be more truth booths, but I think an interesting one could be telling how many couples are two men, how many are two women, and how many are a man and a woman (e.g. if there will be 10 couples total, the contestants could be told that there are 4 couples that are a woman and a woman, 3 that are a man and a man, and 3 that are a man and a woman). I think this would help give them enough data to actually win the show as the contestants losing the show is just a huge bummer. Anyways, get it together MTV, give us the newest iteration of 'the game' that we all actually want (seriously, not even letting the contestants pick whom they go on dates with, what the hell?)

90 Day Fiance: Gay Couples
As my latest addiction in reality TV, I have been thinking a lot about 90 Day Fiance. One thing I've noticed is that they show hasn't had a gay couple on the show yet. Come on, TLC, you are missing a huge opportunity here. I feel like there could be some really interesting stories in how different countries view gay couples (maybe even in some of the countries people are immigrating from same sex marriage isn't legal?). Do these couples face extra hurdles (whether technically or just in reality) in the visa process? Do these couples struggle even more for acceptance from their families? How do gay communities vary from country to country? There is so much potential in this. A whole season of gay couples would be great, but I hope TLC at least gets one gay couple on this show. It's just silly that they don't have one yet.

If anyone has any connections, think about making these happen (but please give me credit and some cash would be great :P). I think they'd do well.

15 facts about my dad

Just been thinking about some lighthearted facts I know about my dad lately. When he was young, he had a goldfish named Lysander He introduced me to Star Trek At Christmas, he would tear up at It's a Wonderful Life He used to send me articles from his Yahoo email account that he thought I'd like We used to play a game called "Nightmare" where he would lie down and we'd jump around (and sometimes on) him He would clip possible recipes for us to try out of newspapers and magazines We bought him a Paddington Bear to take on trips because we feared he'd be lonely and he always took it He had teddy bears for three different holidays We once had such a hilariously difficult time building a gingerbread house that when some frosting ended up on the counter, I plopped a gumdrop on it and we laughed until we cried He and his sister were born about 11 months apart We would try recipes from Top Chef He kept gifts I made him, even when they weren't great At Christmas, ...
