On [NPR](http://www.npr.org) this morning I heard someone advocate the logical extention to the "reality-based" TV craze: a show called "_A Big Room with a Pile of Money and a Bunch of Knives_ ". He says the budget would be rather reasonable, as you'd only need a big room, a pile of money, and a bunch of knives. Spinoff potential? You betcha! "_Celebrities in a Big Room with a Pile of Money and a Bunch of Knives who want to Marry Someone Else in a Big Room with a Pile of Money and a Bunch of Knives_ "
