Jeez, there's no freakin' end to these "reality" shows! Now you have to dress as your own superhero?! Wonder what kind of strange cosplayers and fanboys this will gather, eh? And how exactly do you design competitions that test your superhero's mettle, but which don't involve leaping over tall buildings, stopping runaway trains or robberies, or firing laser beams from your eyes? What, will you use your powers of Super Negotiation to buy a business? Slay the ladies on date night with your Player-Player Hypno Eyes? Or wow 'em with your Level Five Design Mind and create the best new costume in your group? Do you realize that between so-called reality shows, an infinite supply of CSI/Law and Order Clones, all the military/espionage shows (The Unit, E-Ring, etc), and contest/game shows, there's very little original programming on television? It's enough to make you read a book!
http://www.scifi.com/superhero/ The SCI FI Channel, Nash Entertainment (Meet My Folks, For Love or Money, Who Wants to Marry My Dad?), and legendary comic-book creator Stan Lee (Spider-man, Hulk, The Fantastic Four, X-Men) will produce a six-episode, one-hour weekly competition reality series that will challenge a lucky few to create their very own superhero and reward the winner with the best reality competition prize yet: immortality! All you'll need is an original idea for a superhero, a killer costume, and some real superhero mojo. The winner of this six-week competition will walk away with their superhero immortalized in a new comic book created by Stan Lee himself. It gets better: The winning character will also appear in an original SCI FI Channel movie! In nationwide open casting calls, potential heroes will arrive in costume to prove their mettle revealing the true nature of their superhuman abilities and invoking the noble credos by which they live. Make no mistake, you don't have to love comic books to be the superhero we're looking for. If you have a great imagination, love adventure, and have a hero hiding inside of you, we want you on this show. Students, teachers, firemen, soccer moms you're all invited to try out to see if you've got what it takes. From thousands of hopefuls, Stan Lee will choose 11 lucky finalists to move into a secret lair and compete for the opportunity to become a real-life superhero. Finalists will leave their former lives behind and live as their brainchild heroes 24/7, all under Stan Lee's watchful eye. Each week, our aspiring heroes will be challenged with competitions designed to test their true superhero abilities. Don't worry, no one will be leaping over tall buildings in a single bound. Our superheroes will be tested for courage, integrity, self-sacrifice, compassion, and resourcefulness, all traits that every superhero must possess. In the end, only one aspiring superhero will have the inner strength and nobility to open the gates to comic-book immortality. If you think you've got what it takes and have an original superhero inside of you, don't wait for the bat-signal: Put on your costume now and call FSA Casting at 310-360-6630.
