Mad Mad House To Debut On Sci-Fi
FIONA HORNE
As reported here last week:
SCI FI Channel announced that its reality series Mad Mad House will debut
March 4 and will air Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET/PT as part of a new original
programming block called SCI FI Thursday. The 10-episode weekly series
chronicles the unhinging of 10 everyday people who move into a house run by
a vampire, a Wiccan, a naturist, a voodoo priestess and a "modern primitive"
to compete for a $100,000 prize, the network reported.
The one-hour series is part reality, part variety and part game. The 10
guests will be judged by the so-called Alts to determine their openness to
and tolerance of alternative lifestyles. From their participation in house
activities to their willingness to get to know the Alts, the guests will be
subject to constant evaluation. The Alts will determine which of their
guests will be banished in the weekly elimination ceremony and which one
will ultimately walk away with the six-figure prize.
Mad Mad House will feature Fiona Horne who was interviewed by Alex Zander in
last Falls issue of MK.
Created by Arthur Smith and Kent Weed, Mad Mad House is produced by A. Smith
& Co. Productions (Paradise Hotel).
