Has anyone else seen the previews for this new show on NBC?

I can't think of the name of it at the moment, but it's like a Candid Camera thing that seems to have a revenge twist - basically, they have hidden cameras everywhere and they pull crazy stunts on these people. One of the things I saw on the promo was a faked funeral, a guy in the passenger seat of a car while the driver is fleeing from the cops in a high speed chase, and a few others.

Sounds like kind of an interesting idea.

Spy TV, or something...

That looks like it could be funny because it allows people to play pranks on their friends (not just on random strangers). :)

Anyone seen Fear Factor? I'm curious how that is.

The idea that I got from the previews is that somebody sets these people up.

The guy in the car was supposably a sh!tass driver and was generally pissing people off. I guess that somehow his "victims" got back at him by having him more or less kidnapped and thrown into the passenger seat of someguy driving like a maniac.

yeah I saw the preview of that one... the one with the car chase was halarious! :D

Fear factor isn't that good in my opinion... it isn't that exciting...

All the good ones usually are for some reason.

I forget the name of the show, but they basically drop you off in one place and give you a credit card. And you have to trek to this other place while going undetected from the whole country which is trying to catch you or something like that.
