The CW has announced it's ordered 13, a new reality competition series/horror movie hybrid that is scheduled to debut this summer.

"This series is the first to take the horror movie into the reality world," said The CW president Dawn Ostroff. "The action takes contestants on a journey with challenges and games designed to frighten them along the way. Similar to horror films, the challenges will play into our deepest fears and anxieties and will reveal things the contestants never knew about themselves."

Okaaay.

So, like Who Wants To Be A Superhero, they'll have to create challenges that appear frightening and dangerous but really aren't. And, disappointingly, they contestants won't really be able to use lethal violence in a valiant (if futile) attempt to defend themselves from the monsters.

My biggest fear is crummy reality shows.

Especially ones that take the number 13 in vain....

One hopes they can use it instead against the morons who came up with this idea, and the PTB morons who okayed it. The fewer of those folks who remain, the better.
