“On The Lot” Is Off The Hook

The new Steven Spielberg/Mark Burnett reality TV show “On The Lot” debuts tonight. If it sounds like the kind of show that you could imagine James Van Der Beek whispering about amidst nightly platonic pow-wows with Katie Holmes atop his Steve Spielberg poster-plastered room circa “Dawson’s Creek,” you’re not far off.
“On The Lot” which airs tonight at 9 PM on FOX has been described as Youtube meets “American Idol” which we suppose translates to aspiring web video makers auditioning for their chance at director stardom cum Brett Ratner (who is also a judge).
Other judges include Gary Marshall and Carrie Fisher. We’re guessing that barring any alcoholic delusions on Gary’s part, Carrie will be a good shell for the off-kilter Paula. So if Gary is level-headed Randy, that leaves Brett as the egotistical Simon substitute.
Yeah. That about sounds right.
Anyways, here’s an audition video for one of the show’s contestant. If this gal’s any indication, directors are about as self-involved and annoying as we all pretty much knew.
