Title of show: “Put Your Morals Where Your Mouth Is.”
Author name: John Winkler
Format of show: Reality series
“The Graduate” meets “The Apprentice” meets “Occupy Wall Street.” A college graduate, who has the virtues of people taking place in “Occupy Wall Street,” is hired by a company that is later found out to be corrupt and against the contestant’s morals.
The show will be a seven episode series; each episode will have a 1hour runtime. It will be centered around a college graduate who is a big believer in the values that are present in the people taking place in “Occupy Wall Street.” The contestant will be morally strongly against corporate corruption and unemployment in general. Everyone in the show besides the main contestant will be actors/actresses.
Throughout the seven episodes the contestant will think he is facing off against other contestants for a major high paying job. At first the contestant will go to a fake interview and be hired by a fake company that claims they will pay him a lot of money. He will then find out he has to compete against other contestants for his job. These other contestants will all be actors. As the show goes on he will become aware that the company he is going for if extremely corrupt and what they do is completely against his morals.
The finale of the show will end with him winning the contest and being offered to head an operation. It will turn out that the operation is completely against his morals and even more corrupt than he thought. However, he will be offered a huge raise in money to head this job and he will make a lot of money for the rest of his life. With his knowledge of the corruption and how much money is on the line, he will have to make a huge personal decision on weather to head the operation or turn down the job and possibly lose out on all the money and even his job. The purpose will be to see if the contestant can really stick to his morals or will the thought of money corrupt them too. If the contestant declines the offer he will be rewarded $1,000,000. If he accepts he will lose the contest and be paid nothing.
The show will test the morals of a contestant as he is asked to be corrupt for the vice of greed. Is an unemployed college graduate with strong morals willing to let money force his hand against his beliefs? This will be the ultimate test to see if people can “Put Your Morals Where Your Mouth Is.”
