Worst Show Ideas. What Were They Thinking?

[eaglejohn]

With a bunch of shows closing this year, many just running their course. Was wondering the worst ideas for shows that failed. 2 "reality tv" shows come to mind. Pawn Stars the Musical and Duck Dynasty the Musical, c'mon man, who comes up with these ideas. Nothing more entertaining than a bunch of redneck bearded men singing and dancing. Someeone would have probably came up with Honey BooBoo the Musical if a scandal didn't cancel the TV show

If I were a producer, which I'm not, I might do a musical or comedy based on Survivor.

I'll second the Duck Dynasty show. Did anyone (not involved with the production) think that was going to work? They could have paid any of us $10,000 to tell them to not to do it, and saved them time, money, and hassle.

At least the Pawn Stars show had a Vegas tie-in that gave it a chance to work.

"... Pawn Stars the Musical and Duck Dynasty the Musical..."

There's times when I wish I could miracle myself into the conference room where both of these ideas got floated. I'd love to hear the pitch on how this was going to be great. Cause, you know, someone had to do it with a straight face.
