Don't you just love when shows have a questions for a title: Who Wants to be a Millionaire?, Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?, Whose Line is it Anyway?. Last week Brad reported that there's a new one in the works: Who Wants to Marry a U.S. Citizen? Yeah, you read that right. And now you may be asking yourself the same question I did: Is this what American television has come to?

Don't worry just yet. The already infamous show, created by Adrian Martinez and backed by Morusa Media, has NOT been picked up by a network. Although I'm sure there's a network out there stupid enough to think this is a great idea. This article at AttorneyFind.com, entitled Who Wants to Commit a Crime?, explains why this show will not get made. I'll give you a quick synopsis: it's completely illegal.

In an example of "no concept is too trashy" a Los Angeles-based company is trying to sell a new game show called Who Wants to Marry a U.S. Citizen which shows matrimony between immigrants and legal citizens of the United States. The show's creator Adrian Martinez and their backer Morusa Media apparently want to show that true love knows no boundaries.

People, this is prostitution. Granted that most television is prostitution in one form or another but this is more blatant than most. The show is taking advantage of people from economically depressed countries and giving them a change to make more money just for having sex, er, marrying a U.S. citizen. I can only trust that this show will have people of all races, sexes, colors and creeds trying to manipulate their way into a better economy, just to be fair.
