			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Justin Timberlake will be <a href="http://www.accesshollywood.com/article/9439/justin-timberlake-dials-up-new-reality-game-with-mtv">producing a new reality game show for MTV</a> called <em>The Phone</em>. It&#8217;s based on an existing Dutch TV show, but I don&#8217;t know if this will work in America:</p>
<blockquote><p>Each episode will begin with two strategically placed cell phones ringing at opposite ends of a major metropolitan city. Once answered, a mysterious guide gives contestants five seconds to decide if they want to play the game.</p>
<p>If they accept, the competition begins, throwing the two contestants into an intense race, where they must communicate via cell phone to succeed.</p>
<p>The guide will also be communicating with the game players via cell phone, as a helicopter in the sky tracks their every move, exploit and error &#8211; with each failed task chipping away at the cash prize.</p></blockquote>
<p>Ringing cellphones abandoned on city streets and <em>helicopters in the sky</em>? Even discounting the potential for mass panic, who exactly is going to pick up these cellphones, besides homeless people or kids, unless they&#8217;re clearly part of a TV show? If you see a ringing cellphone surrounded by cameramen in your city, pick it up and yell &#8220;No way Justin Timberlake!&#8221; That&#8217;ll teach him to try to do stuff.</p>
