Did anyone catch the premier of Secret Millionaire this week? Neither did (would--- ever) I.
I do, however, believe the premise is ripe for a twist. The current premise: Gather a group of multi's who are willing to part with a huge one. Identify people to receive the million bucks for the amazing things they do for others when they have nothing themselves.
Each episode, imbed a millionaire in the workplace of the recipient. They work alongside the "mark" for a week, pretending to be just another worker or volunteer.
At the very end of the hour, the millionaire says, "I'm really a millionaire and I was sent here to give you this check for (oops, Canada 'cheque') a million dollars." Then the hidden camera crew reveal themsleves. Cue: screaming, crying, etc.
I was thinking it'd be way more interesting a human drama if the final line were something like:
"I'm a millionaire. I just screwed your 17 yr old daughter. Here's a check for a million dollars."
or
"I'm a millionaire. I had your dog euthenized this morning. Here's a check for a million dollars."
Would the pathos just be amplified to the max???
Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.
