Show Time
of Phil Harvey (Goodreads Author)
Description
Future viewing audiences have become totally desensitized to violence and entirely dependent on sensation to escape their boring workaday livesâan addiction nurtured by the media with graphic portrayals of war and crime and with so-called reality programming. Now, TV execs in pursuit of the only things they care aboutâhigher ratings and bigger paychecksâhave created the ultimate reality show: Seven people, each bearing the scars of his or her past, are deposited on an island in the middle of Lake Superior. Given some bare necessities and the promise of $400,000 each if they can endure, the three women and four men risk death by starvation or freezing as the Great Lakes winter approaches. The island is wired for sound, and flying drones provide the video feed, so everything the contestants do and say is broadcast worldwide. Their seven-month ordeal is entirely unscripted, they canât ask for help or they forfeit the prize, and as far as the network is concernedâthe fewer survivors the better.
