In Russia, reality TV watches you. Critics argue that a popular show forces people into prostitution in order to win fabulous prizes.
  • Reminds me of an old SCTV skit: Dante's Inferno. Host Bill Dante would give fabulous prizes to the person willing to commit the best sin. The first two contestants were willing to commit major crimes like genocide - pretty tough for contestant three to beat. Bill Dante asked #3 what she was willing to do for the prizes, and she responded lasciviously, "I would commit adultery, Bill - with you!" Without hesitation, Bill Dante (John Candy) turned to the camera and replied, "Tell her what she's won, Don Pardo!"
