I just thought of a new reality tv series for this month. I can imagine it: The Mayflower. Spend 44 days in a boat 25ft by 90ft by 5.5ft with 101 other passengers. Combine different religions, lifestyles, and family relations in one gigantic free for all. Throw in a heaving sea, the threat of scurvey, and no privacy to make for an emotionally charged time.

There's only one way out: The Hatch! But be careful, the North Atlantic is very dangerous in the fall storm season.
