If you have watched Olympics on TV you’ll know full well about the New TV Shows After Olympics.
If you’ve managed to avoid Channel 7 and their excessive promos, you’ll find you’ve had to suck eggs on any other channel.
The cold war for New TV Shows After Olympics is about to begin. With promoises of DOn’t Miss, Lock in the Week, Must See etc it’s hard not to get caught up in the hype.
We at the Gurgler have been caught up in the hype, and have our new Gurglervision Channel ready to launch. On Foxtel Channel 4503 from Monday you can sample some of the Gurgler’s favourite obscure TV and sporting events and personalities.
We’re also featuring 45 brand new shows that have been waiting to bundled together as New TV Shows After Olympics.
Here’s the pick of the new viewing available on Gurglervision.
GURGLEBOX
Like most ideas in TV, we take a good one and slightly change it.
For our first of many great New TV Shows After Olympics we follow on from the success of Gogglebox.
Instead of having participants using the occasional drop of alcohol through careful product placement, the people of Gurglebox will be put through a much harder test.
Each member (over 18) of our 7 groups of TV watchers will be fed copious amounts of alcohol before sitting down and telling the nation and the world what they really think of TV.
Play School and the Giggle and Hoot have never seen such abuse.
Get the bleeper ready, there’s more F’s and C’s than an FA Cup first round draw.
THE RECRUIT – ICE FACTORY
Hot on the success of the NRL and AFL Rookie, the Gurgler presents a new version of the franchise.
An Outlaw Motorcycle gang from the Gold Coast, who can’t be named or filmed for legal reason, are looking to take on a new drug manufacturer. We take 20 prospective gang members and put them through a range of criminal activities and Ice cookery classes.
Hosted by Brendan Abbott from behind bars, it is one that will be high on the agenda.
Will be teamed up with Drug Addicts Make You Laugh Out Loud is a double header certain to entertain.
SUNDAY AFTERNOON RUGBY LEAGUE
To continue giving the fans what they want, we will broadcast the Sunday afternoon gamefrom Sydney between two Sydney sides.
Bugger the position on the ladder, it’s time to give the fans what they want. And need.
MARRIED AT FIRST SIGHT – PUB RAFFLE
We assemble 50 single males and females at the prestigious Big Fish Tavern to find people to live happily ever after.
The Back TAB Bar will closed to the public, except for our TV Cameras who capture the initial raffling of the tickets and first awkward conversations between the two soon to be newlyweds.
With Jon Bon Jovi, Khe Sanh, and Big Audio Dynamite pumping out from ex Bungalow DJ Mike minus the Mechanics, the mood will lighten and the party starts.
It all ends with a mass all-in 50 couple wedding hosted by an Elvis impersonator.
We then park our cameras at the various local court houses as the marriages dissolve into ratings gold.
THE BLOCK – UPPER HOUSE
In a perfect mix of politics and reality TV show, we end with the finest of the New TV Shows After Olympics.
For once The Block won’t be some abandoned factory in Melbourne, it will be a 1970’s unit complex in the heart of the ACT in Woden.
We’ve assembled five groups of politician pairings who will use all of their skills to win the grand prize of an extra senate seat for their party.
Which should be a welcome change from the usual groupings of blond couples from NSW, school teachers, police officers, people from Queensland hired just to embarrass the state because Channel 9 hates Queensland due to State of Origin dominance, plus token teams from SA and WA every now and again to even the east coast ledger.
With midweek challenges involving renovating the old parliament house, Canberra Zoo, Tuggeranong Shopping Centre and the political reputations of their various parties.
TEAM 1 – TONY ABBOTT and MALCOLM TURNBULL
Nothing like an odd couple to start things off. Each could blame the previous work by the other.
TEAM 2 – Two Greens Senators democratically elected by their own party.
This duo will be high on environmental products and recycling where possible. But will it win over the judges?
TEAM 3 – NICK XENOPHON and DERRYN HINCH
Plenty of entertainment value from this twosome. But what do they know about renovating?
TEAM 4 – ANTHONY ALBANESE and MILTON DICK
Ensuring the ALP are represented, should have a head start with Union links. No one builds stuff like Milton Dick.
TEAM 5 – PAULINE HANSON and BOB KATTER
Never before has Reality TV fielded this pairing and it should be ratings gold. Often descrived as people who say what the rest of Australia are thinking, will they be able to renovate an entire unti the way the country is thinking. If anything there’ll be plenty of zingers.
