Mark Burnett's 'Pirates' Reality Show?

Has anyone heard anything about this? I saw the application when looking at the Survivor page on CBS http://www.cbs.com/primetime/pirates...asting_App.pdf

and it looks like another edition of Survivor just under a different name?

Well, it's starting on May 31, now called Pirate Master..

"Pirate Master is an upcoming CBS reality television show created by Mark Burnett following 16 modern-day pirates on their quest for gold, which will total $1,000,000. Cameron Daddo is the host. In each episode, contestants will go on expeditions for gold coins that can be used as real money outside of the show. The contestant with the most money each week will be the captain of the ship, and will assign roles and jobs to each of the other contestants. At a "Pirate's Court" to take place on each episode, one pirate will be eliminated."

I will be tuning in to see former NFL player Christian Okoye act like a pirate

This could either be really entertaining like Survivor or really bad. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Azmyth? Jupiter? We should check to see if Geoff has updated the terms of service to make watching this show a bannable offense.

I wish Mark Burnett would retire to an Island somewhere. I hate his shows.

You ought to write to your senator. There should be a law passed where we're no longer forced to watch shows we don't want to.

This show is a mess. These 'pirates' do know they are on a game show, right? They are taking this way too seriously

No, but I guess Over Acting Douche Bag Master was already copyrighted.

Not too many shows where you can see a scientist/exotic dancer!
