My Reality TV Show Pitch: Jump the Shark

I had an idea for a reality TV show this week. It's called Jump the Shark. Contestants have to jump over a shark.

Mr. Garrity, please jab a rusty nail in my eyes.

If I drank coffee, and if I was drinking coffe when I read this, I would have snorted it all over my laptop laughing.
I'm pretty sure it already airs on some japanese TV...
A couple of years ago, I had an idea for a TV show called Jump The Shark. Each episode would utilise the same set core group of actors, but every week would be a different "fake" show. So, one episode of Jump The Shark would be a made up family-oriented sitcom. Another episode would be a reality show. Another would be a police procedural. Etc. Each episode would be the episode in that fake show's run where they jumped the shark. As if each fake show had been running for a number of years, and the episode we see is the one where they are desperate to retain viewers.
I think it would suck.
How do I apply to be on this show?
If you successfully jump said shark, do you then get to wrestle it and eat it?
That idea reminds me of Happier Days...
Would there be gambling involved?

Oh --- that was hilarious. I just laughed so hard when I read that.
The fox network would snap that concept up in a second.
i have been wanting to have my own reality tv show for years now. the only thing is... i dont know who to go to, who to talk to, where to start. the things that me and my friends experience is unbelievable. there is a circle of us, meaning that me and all my friends know eachother. each of us have a best friend on each side. there is always drama, so that wont be a problem. we have personalities to die for and we are all cute. if i was to videotape us for for not even a week, but for one day... you would be amazed at all the funny, wild, crazy things we see, do, and experience. once again, i just dont know who to go to.
