Ok hoons… someone amongst us has put together a pretty cool idea for a reality show that doesn’t involve the Kardashians or brain-dead from Orange County residents who now live in The Hills.
You all know our good friend Bentoboxx, right? Well he is part of team trying to bring My Way or the Highway to a TV screen near you (except you Mad_Science… get a TV already).
Hop over this little jump here to see a trailer and here his explanation of the show
I hate Traffic! As much fun as it is to live in L.A., it probably has some of the worst Traffic in the country. ya know what my friends hate? Me complaining about the traffic. “Why don’t you take the train to work?” they would tell me. So it got me thinking….is public transportation really better? As much as I love my truck, its not that much fun going 5 mph…and iPods and laptops make using the train bearable. In fact, Metro wants to install WiFi into the subway next year so you can surf the net, get work done, check emails. But will I get to work any faster? My friends and I decided to find out and we ended up creating a TV show.
We met in the suburbs of L.A. on a Wednesday morning with a camera and filmed a race. One guy could only take public transportation, the other only a car and freeways. we each had someone follow us with a camera to film it. when we were done we went home and looked at the footage and liked what we saw. We called a few people, went back and got some pickup shots and filmed a beginning and ending. The idea kept getting bigger and bigger and the next thing we knew we had a pilot shot! If you haven’t figured out by now, I am a fan of Top Gear and yes they were part of the inspiration for the show.
I used my truck for the pilot we shot. I would LOVE to be able to use a different car for each episode….A GT-R in Atlanta or a Maserati in Miami. A Classic Mustang in New York City. Well, what would you use? give me some suggestions! Hopefully we can shop it around and get picked up. Oh yeah, visit www.mywayshow.com for updates! Thanks!
