Justin Timberlake has a new MTV show. He's not singing or acting or, heck, really even on it, he's just behind-the-scenes as the executive producer of this action game show. Basically, four contestants get a phone call, get paired into teams of two and then have to complete extreme tasks in order to win $50,000. Some of the potential tasks include hanging off the Space Needle, racing into a burning building, recover a piece of secret military technology or stop a mad bomber. Sort of like The Game, or Eagle Eye or Saw or Phone Booth with a dash of Fear Factor thrown in for good measure. The press release makes it sound all very deadly and dangerous... with the potential that some people might die while completing these challenges or something. That seems highly unlikely. I'm sure that everyone has to sign a massive waiver in order to even start on this show.
