NEW YORK – The Fox network is making a reality show out of the troubled economy. An upcoming series led, "Someone's Gotta Go," lets employees of a small business decide which one of their colleagues will be laid off.

Fox says it has no air date yet for the series, which is being developed by the company behind "Big Brother" and "Deal or No Deal." Each week, a different company lays off an employee.

Fox also wouldn't reveal the show's host, which it says is a business consultant who will offer advice to participating companies.

I hate ing reality shows. I truly do. If I want to see how people react when they hang out together I will call up some friends and hang out with them. If I want to see how people work together I get to do that every ing week. How the is it entertainment to see the same I get to see in HD every day of my life? We are one stupid ing country.

This is just so wrong on so many levels! In this current economic environment, how could they even think it was okay to do this. This is just another version of class warfare. Geez - it's like High School - who's the most unpopular, nerdy, geeky person - let's all pile on and make fun of them. So, so pathetic and a very sad commentary on our current state of affairs.

Reality programming == the dumbing down of America (and everywhere else). The very definition of least common denominator programming.

[The Franchise]

The producers of this show are some sad, evil, ed up, tasteless, heartless, de able, mother ers.

Is it wrong to wish for the developers death?
