A new reality television show is going to be based around young Derek Sonderfan, it was revealed yesterday at a press conference in an undisclosed barn somewhere. Trying to combine the latest trends of talent-based reality shows, celeb-reality, and historical reality shows, Derek will be starring in the new vehicle American Famous Person: 1860's.
That's right, in this new television venture, Derek (and other historical persons from post-Civil War Alabama) will be competing on a weekly basis in contests such as tap dancing, pig shucking, and something that could only be described with a few sharp hand gestures in order to win the grand prize of the show: novelty fame. The producers purport to advertise the winner heavily during the Superbowl (though what specifically the ads will be about or how much nudity they will entail will be at the discretion of the censors and the lobbyists who are trying to buy out the censors). As of this writing, the television show is set to debut in mid-June.
Contestants will be judged on various areas, include authentic look (which Derek's outdated facial hair style has nearly guaranteed success), ability to heal quickly (check), and historical significance (which could be a problem). Other contestants signed up for the show include "Stonewall" Jackson, John Wilkes Booth, Andrew Johnson, Willie Appomatix, and, in a twist only reality shows can pull off, Jay Z.
Stay tuned for the latest gossip.
