NEAT! Makes sense. Good idea. Sorry, GREAT IDEA. (Mild sarcasm but I do hope that people get eliminated by being killed by ghosts?)

  1. Meh. Wake me up when Ms. Pac Man becomes a contestant on “Milf Island.”

  2. I thought Jersey Shore already features Snooki running around eating pickles.

  3. TAKE A HARD LEFT!

  4. Round, weird color, Strange name, makes nonsensical sounds.

    It’s been done.

  5. I’ll support this under the pretense that there is an axe-murderer in the maze like in Club Dread.

  6. This smacks of Inception Prank.

  7. If this ushers in an era of Reality-TV Donkey Kong, Q-Bert and Gauntlet, then I am completely fine with this.

  8. Ghost rights activists are not amused

  9. “The idea we have is to take what Pac-Man is and bring it to life…”

    So, have a fat guy follow and eat a trail of Cap’n Crunch cereal while guys with huge brightly colored dreadlocks try to tackle him? Is that the idea?

    if so, AWESOME SHOW!!!

  10. I knew he would be back.

    Seriously, this is Running Man meets Wipe Out, though a better choice would have been Logan’s Run.

  11. So game shows are considered reality shows now?

  12. Executive One: “It’ll be great. It’s like Ghost Hunters meets Supermarket Sweep.”
    Executive Two: “I dunno, still not quite the right angle. Can we make it about Pakistanis? You know, Pak Man, expand into the East Asian Markets.”
    Executive One: “No, no, we can’t compete with Outsourced.”
    Executive Two: “I got it, we drop contestants in a maze and they have to pick things up all the while in danger of getting tackled?”
    Executive One: “I love it. Comedy, drama and suspense, it has everything. Green light. And see what you can do about getting a foreign production company on that Pakistani idea, really build the brand out horizontally.”

  13. There should be a new rule in TV land. For every Jersey Shore, Celebrity Rehab, 16 and Pregnant, freakin’ Pac Man game show, there must be an intelligent, well-produced, poignant show like Mad Men, Six Feet Under, Community (comedy can be intelligent too!) to counterbalance the active dumbing down of humanity. I’m worried about our brains, you guys. If they release a LOLcat TV show, I’m out.

  14. PS, no disrespect to the LOLcats of the world. I love funny pictures of adorable kitties (no duh) but if PEEPS START TALKIN LIEK DIS in real life, it’s all over.
