EWTN Announces New Reality Show

According to a post over at Acts of the Apostasy: "Preliminary reports indicate that two teams of contestants - most likely an orthodox vs. heterodox set up - will undergo various trials and tests, such as Catacomb Races, St. Peter's Square-dancing and Long-Distance Thurible Hurling. Each week, a contestant will be "ex-communicated", not by direct voting per se. Rather, contestants will ignite pieces of paper with their names written on them, and if the resultant smoke is white, they are cast off, as the host shouts out "Habemas haereticum!"

EWTN is accepting applications for contestants right now, and interviews will be conducted in late January. Sources tell me that filming will begin in February - on Ash Wednesday, in fact. Perhaps the first contest will be Fasting and Abstinence...

No word yet on when "Survivor: Vatican" will air, but when it does, I'm watching! "

OK, I am sure by now you have realized how serious this isn't. Not that it wouldn't be fun to watch a bunch of "Spirit of Vatican II" Catholics in Name Only prove how CINO they really are. Seeing how some of those CINOs would handle the Papal Ring Kissing event alone would be worth it. I think we all know what the final outcome would be. As for the CINOs, once they are ex-communicated they could be shipped off for EWTN's next reality show, Nobody Escapes the Spanish Inquisition Island. Sadly, with the death last year of Ricardo Montalbán, a suitable host has yet to be found.
