Human Tetris


I recently cancelled my cable. There was nothing on. Except Dexter. Everything else sucked.

So I watched re-runs of the Japanese Game Show Human Tetris on You Tube. They are genius. Possibly more genius than Dexter, but in a totally different way. Less serial-killing, more yellow water.

Then I got this e-mail from a casting agency:
"The TV phenomenon sweeping the world is making its way to American soil! This project is the most downloaded Japanese Game ever on the net. Now FremantleMedia, the company behind American Idol, America's Got Talent, and The Price Is Right along with a major American television network are looking for trios (friends, co-workers, spouses, etc) to take part in an airable pilot for one of the most outrageous, funny, and challenging game shows ever seen on Television. Go to Youtube and search "HUMAN TETRIS" to watch how the game is played on the original Japanese gameshow!"

Holy CRAP! That's right! HUMAN TETRIS IS GOING TO BE MADE IN THE US!!!!!!!!!!

I almost peed my pants. Does anyone want to be on my team? Seriously. I'm totally serious.

Call me. I'm practicing the splits right now. Seriously.

Seriously.

Our gimmick can totally be that we're internet friends that have never met in person until the show. BRILLIANT!

I would offer to be on the team too, but then it would look much less like a human Tetris wall, much more like the demolished side of a building.

Seriously? LOL. I'm not sure I could be that "bendy". I'll do some stretches and get back to you.
