What if This Was a New Reality Show?

by Lynn on December 17th, 2006

Here on the Entertainment Channel of b5media, we are doing a Winter Wonderland theme for December. That means that we all will write a post relating to the theme on our blogs, then tie them all together with one post linking to all the themed posts. Sounds confusing, but it’s not.

So I started to try to think of a way to tie reality TV to the winter time. It’s not as easy as you might think. Most reality shows are filmed in warmer weather. It might be because the cameras (or the crew!) might have some issues with the cold, or it might be that they want to show people in skimpy clothing and that’s not easy in the winter. Whatever.

And then this amazing e-mail arrived in my inbox from my good friend, Jeanne. There were these fabulous photos of ice sculptures that are such amazing works of art, it seems so sad that they will end up melting. It occurred to me that I’ve seen shows on the Food Channel where chefs create ice sculptures for competitions, but nothing on this scale.

So what if they had a reality TV show where artists create this kind of magnificent art out of ice? Ok, perhaps it’s only a Reality Show Special…the premise may run dry pretty quickly. But just look at these photos!! I don’t know the event for which they were created or the names of the artists, so if anyone out there knows, please leave a comment to tell us all.

In the mean time, just enjoy these works of art:
