With the new deal made between producers and directors, there's hope that the over-two-months-long writers' strike will shortly be coming to an end. Many shows have no new episodes, and networks are relying on a lot of reality programming.
A friend sent me a link some time ago, but I finally got around to watching it.
I remember when I used to spend HOURS playing tetris. Mike Okuda once joked at a convention that it was a weapon launched by the Russians to seriously decrease productivity in the States. There's apparently even one scene in Next Generation where on the background computer screen, a tetris piece can be seen falling. No, I haven't seen it for myself, and I can't remember which episode it's in.
Anyway, what if you made a variation of tetris but made it with real people? I recommend watching the whole video, which is a little over 4 minutes long. I just found myself laughing harder as it progressed. The spacesuit type outfits were funky.
How about an American version of this show? I'd watch it!
Ellen was having audience members play this on her show. Here's a video of Howie Mandel, who had no idea what to expect.
