Take-Your-Sadistic-Voyeur-To-Work Day
With the success of Dirty Jobs and Deadliest Catch, it appears that the Discovery and History Channels are upping the ante in the new disturbing and dangerous jobs genre with the shows like Ax Men, Storm Chasers and (I kid you not) Ice Road Truckers.
Here are some of the increasingly treacherous offerings in pre-production over the next three seasons:
2009
Thin Ice Fishermen
Aging Knife Throwers’ Lovely Assistants
Roofers with Vertigo
2010
Base-Jumping Procrastinators
Homeless Window-Washers on Highway 101
Lindsey Lohan’s Laundress
2011
Caucasian Harlem Bus Drivers with Rampant, Racially-Inclined Tourette Syndrome
Solo Thailand Vacationers with Latex Allergies
The Road to the BME Olympics
(Editor's note: Do not Google "BME Olympics" unless you have an iron stomach and black, lifeless soul.)

Nice. How about "Corolla vacationers who don't like beer"?
