Master Blasters

Chris, the show's been cancelled. According to Pat G. the Discovery channel and ESPN have both expressed interest in it, so it may end up on one of those channels.

After just 4 shows? Ratings must have been dismal.

Yeah, putting a reality show on SciFi never made much sense to me, since it's not SF. Maybe they figure they've already got all the hardcore SF fans and were hoping to draw in some new viewers.

SCI-FI viewers were complaining on the Master Blasters forum at scifi.com about pre-empting some other actual sci-fi show.

Wouldn't it be better to show the paid for episodes than reruns of some other show? I can't believe reruns would make more moeny than a first run show. I never watch reruns if I can help it.

Run it on Spike TV.

Now for the real thread:

What commercials and for what products should be run during this show?

Oh thats a easy one.....

BEER!!!!!

Tastes great!

More filling!

Every other month I get a discount for a quarter(8 gal)keg for the kegerator.

Life is good :)

Let's get more creative.

I'll start.

How about a commercial featuring "Smiling Bob"?

Next.

How about the Road Runner & Wile E Coyote selling Acme Dynomite?

No. I mean real products and real commercials.

And the combination can be funny.

I already gave an example.

(By the way..."dynomite" is only used by

You probably meant "dynamite" )

So, what other *REAL* products woudl appeal to this prime demographic?

If they want to do a *successful* reality show on the Sci-Fi Channel, it would have to be about a bunch of overweight, pimply, pizza-eating,

34-year-old male virgins who rarely leave their mom's basement except for their quarterly bath or to attend Star Trek conventions dressed as Klingons in the hope of meeting their dream girl - a 225-pound ex-goth chick who speaks fluent Klingon and hasn't owned a toothbrush since being kicked out of her parent's home at age 16.

Vonage SBC J.C. Penny's

:-p

See, that's what I was looking for.

Very nice.

Next.

Yes. It's at least as real as 80% of what is seen on TV. I seem to have communicated - no matter how you want to spell it. ;-)

I always liked Crazy Eddie. His rockets are INSANE!!!

That totally mirrors a certain roommate I had several years ago ;/

Gave the uber nerd the boot when I discovered that this nerd never discovered the need to take a shower, pay his bills, communicate with spoken words, take care of his dog, COMPLETE lack of common sense..... This uber nerd was ONLY concerned with a stupid fantasy computer game, Everquest.

It eventually involved the local feds and certain weapons that uber nerd had in my basement.

Any wonder why I have serious bias against nerds? Geeks on the other hand are a-ok with me.

Good one, but out of business.

Those nutty Moties.
