Last night I saw a commercial for Fox Television's new show, "Utopia," and I just had to grin.
Last May the producers of the show approached me and asked me to be on the program. As much as I wanted to, one of the requirements was complete loss of connection to my life, save a phone call on occasion to my loved ones. I have a life, I have work to do, I have responsibilities. No thank you.
The concept is to take a bunch of strangers, and see what political arrangement they decide to go with to make their society work. The producers told me they had no strong conservative voices, which is a part of why they wanted to include me in the group of reality show participants.
Reality shows like Utopia usually wind up with jobless, mindless, leftist kids usually around college age, or shortly after that age. Anybody with a life just can't do that kind of show. It will be interesting to watch. Let's see if they try socialism, and then start to starve to death.
