Have a Terrible Idea? Then Why Not Turn it into a TV Show?

I can't post links because I'm writing this from my Blackberry, but if you go to Variety.com you'll see what I'm talking about.

The headline is "ABC in Mad Dash to Find Fast Comics!"
And here's the show's pitch, which is somehow worse than the headline:
"Ok. Check it out. It's the Amazing Race meets Last Comic Standing..."
What does that mean? Fast runners or comics who talk fast? Either way, it's a worse idea than Figure-Skating with the Stars. My friend suggested that if I get a casting call, I show up in track spikes and a singlet. I think it's the only logical thing to do.
And the next challenge: "Dat Phan, you will have to impersonate your mother while doing the shuttle run. Don't forget to touch the lines."
Somehow, this is the same network that has brought us LOST.
