Martha's in the Big House

Today Martha Stewart starts her 5 month prison sentence. Is it just me or does this scream reality TV? If people watch those two ditsy blonds Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie do whatever crap they did in the 2 seasons of "The Simple Life" then watching Martha's adventures in "THE BIG HOUSE" would be a ratings bonanza. It would put "The Apprentice" to shame.

(On a side note, Pamela should not have been fired this week; it should have been Stacy R. She not capable of doing anything other than yakking. At least Pamela finally got them to work together as a team without stabbing each other in the back every few minutes. Any male who ends up in that group will be destroyed by all the in fighting, just like what happened to Pamela, Actually I think Raj would be interesting, he has this 'Howard Cosell' thing and that might just save him)

Anyway back to the main subject, we call the show Big House and we follow Martha as she tries to survive behind bars. Does she join a gang? Does she have enemies waiting for her inside? Do they have her working in the kitchen making lovely centerpieces for all the tables? The possibilities are endless. There hasn't been this great a possibility in a reality show since The Osbournes.

Now I know she's going to minimum security and its not going to be anything like OZ but still, this woman is used to having her way and being served on in hand and foot and now she's going to have to get off her ass and do it herself. This alone would be interesting to see and if the show becomes successful, she can hold up a 7/11 and get placed in a rougher place for the second season.

Wouldn't it be great if she snapped under pressure and tried to make it over the fence?
