Pirate Master

Mark Burnett, the creator of such all-time reality shows such as "Survivor", "The Apprentice" (both Trump and Martha), "Eco-Challenge", "The Contender", and the underrated "Combat Missions" (RIP Helvenston), looks to be doing it again, and no, I'm not talking about "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?". He is not only teaming up with Spielberg to produce the new movie-maker show "On the Lot", but is coming out with another new show that I think can only be either an uproarious success or a complete and laughable failure. Yes, I'm talking about the now-highly publicized new FOX show making its debut May 31st, "Pirate Master".

Sixteen people will dress up in pirate garb, compete weekly for money in the form of doubloons, organize mutinies, and try their haaaaaaar-dest not to start talking with the stereotypical piratey accents (TLM hopes the same will be true for me).
