Yeah, ... if they get pissy about it I'll change the content enough so it only strongly resembles the show..... you know, like how fox copies other shows.

Kinda remembers me about the British show "Bigbrother". Despite what people think they werent the first ones. YLE (a finnish government-owned TV station) trapped 8 of its employees to the YLE-studios and basically locked them up for the weekend. They were monitored via nightvision cameras, all that usual BB stuff. Well, the BBC sued YLE for breaking the copyright law. It all ended costly - for the BBC. They never bothered to check up the fact that YLE had done the show in the 80s, and so it was BBC that had to pay for violating the copyright law. Pretty messy affair if you ask me.
