PROPOSAL: JUDGE SHOW with JURY selected from AUDIENCE
MEDIA: TV SHOW
PREMISE:
We been working on a new game show...
Inspired by the Judge shows but with PEOPLE as the Judges...
The show would have a JURY.
They would be selected like "The Price is Right"...
Taken from the audience...
The COURTROOM would have a JUDGE BENCH but on the BENCH is A BIG LCD SCREEN on the front...
There would be a WITNESS chair but it would rather used except for CELEBRITY, EXPERT or KEY WITNESS.
The PROSECUTING LAWYER would PROCESUTE the IDEA of CULT RUMORS and BELEIFS about CELEBRITIES!
Rumors like:
o Tom Cruise is gay...
o Paul McCartney is not the original
o The BRITISH MONARCHY and MI6 killed Princess Diana
o Jewish People run Hollywood
o Guiliani is MOB ENFORCER and POLITICAL CANIDATE...
o Madonna is a Q'ballah Witch and member of the Illuminati..
The DEFENDING LAWYER would ARGUE the CELEBRITY or GROUPS INNONENCE...
But for hypothetical purposes will use a FAKE RUMOR:
o George Clooney is gay...
(Of course, he isn't.)
TEST SCRIPT or PILOT
Intro Music Starts!
The ANNOUNCER Says "Welcome to the Court of Public Opinion!!!"
He follows "The Judge SHOW where THE PEOPLE decide THE TRUTH!!!"
Intro Music... Fades...
The Court Bailiff calls 7 Jurors to the Juror Stand...
He announces...
"John Smith please report to Jury Duty..."
"Jane Applegate please report to Jury Duty...
Etc..
Etc..
The JUDGE gives INSTRUCTIONS to the NEW JURY's
"You will listen to arguements and testimony and DECIDE THE TRUTH"
The JUDGE then hits the GRAVEL...
"Let's bring this court to order!!!"
"Prosecuting Attorney: [Famous Lawyer] please present your CASE!"
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY "Ladies and Gentlemen of the JURY, AUDIENCE and HOME VIEWERS... Today, we look at the rumors about one GEORGE CLOONEY! Yes... The famous megastar MR. CLOONEY... We will PROVE BEYOND a SHADOW of doubt that GEORGE CLOONEY IS GAY!"
Gasps from the audience...
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY "Oh Yes!... We have a heard the rumors! AND THEIR TRUE!"
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY "Let me present Exhibit A"
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY [Takes out a photo] "He is GEORGE CLOONEY in a CESAER SHAG HAIRCUT!"
Gasps from the audience again...
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY "Everyone who knows GAY SUB-CULTURE knew at the time THIS HAIRCUT was a SOCIAL SIGNAL that MR. CLOONEY was GAY"
The DEFENDING ATTORNEY "I OBJECT your HONOR. You can't convict someone on SO CALLED SOCIAL SIGNALS!"
The JUDGE "OVERRULED. I know guys who had that haircut in the late 80s and early 90s"
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY "Let me present Exihit B"
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY "Please roll the PAPARAZZI PROTEST CLIP"
[The clips of GEORGE CLOONEY protesting the PAPARAZZI APPEAR.. He PUBLIC STATEMENTS... His SUPPORT FOR "PRINCESS" DIANA of ENGLAND... THE PAPARAZZI response in NOT TAKING HIS PHOTO!!!]
Murmurs from the audience...
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY "GEORGE CLOONEY seems to have a THING for PRINCESS members of the jury. It's quite evident..."
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY "Let me present Exihit C"
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY "Please roll the PRINCESS DIANA DEATH CLIP"
[The clips of GEORGE CLOONEY talking about the death of PRINCESS DIANA role on the BENCH LCD SCREEN...]
Murmurs from the audience...
The DEFENDING ATTORNEY "I OBJECT your HONOR. Just because MR. CLOONEY defends PRINCESS DIANA... It's doesn't mean he is gay??!!!"
The JUDGE replies "SUSTAINED. Please move on. Just because one celebrity defends or talks about another is not INDICATIVE of anyting."
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY "Ok then. Let's move to Exhibit D"
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY "Let's look at MR. CLOONEY's CURRENT RESIDENCE!!! ITALY!!! Why did he have to MOVE OUT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA to live ITALY?!!! Away from prying eyes? We think so."
The DEFENDING ATTORNEY stands and says "Ahh...never mind"
The PROSECUTING ATTORNEY says "I REST MY CASE."
The DEFENDING ATTORNEY stands before the JUDGE's BENCH and JURY...
The DEFENDING ATTORNEY "Well.. All we have speculation and association here. We know that MR. CLOONEY is STRAIGHT. What about his EX-WIFE. His rumored love affairs. Why did he throw RENEE ZELLWEGER out the house! Because he is scoring with the chickas!"
The DEFENDING ATTORNEY continues "What about his ENTOURAGE!!!??? He's group of basketball playing ACTOR friends! Guys who play basketball AREN'T GAY??? What about the stories of WILT CHAMBERLEN and his 20,000 WOMEN?!!!"
The DEFENDING ATTORNEY continues "What about the OCEAN MOVIES? A guy who has JULIA ROBERTS, CATHERINE ZETA JONES and THAT REVELON CHICK ELLEN BARKIN in his movies? He can't be gay!?? True, their are alot of male stars like BRAD PITT but that's indicative of anything... Just movie demographics..."
The DEFENDING ATTORNEY finishes "The defense rests..."
The JUDGE instructs the jury "Please go to the DELIBERATION ROOM for 10 MINUTES and COME TO A VOTE"
The CAMERA moves to THE DELIBERATION ROOM and JURY argue THE CASE out.
The JURY DELIBERATIONS can be THE MOST EXCITING DISCUSSION you ever heard...
And then the JURY COMES OUT and GIVES ITS VERDICT to the BAILIFF...
The BAILIFF hands it to the JUDGE...
The JUDGE says "The COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION has deemed That GEORGE CLOONEY is..."
[Well save this for the INITIAL PILOT... We don't want to give away the verdict...]
Well, What do you think?... I think it would be a GREAT NEW GAME SHOW/JUDGE SHOW!!!
Of course, we have to give the copyright for JUDGE SHOW IDEA and SHOW PILOT to:
