The CW network has ordered [9] a new reality show inspired by The Hunger Games, called The Hunt. The show will be debuting [10]on July 31, 9 PM on the CW.
The show will place 12 teams of two into "The Arena" where they will live for one month while competing for limited resources. The official description actually says "the teams must hunt each other down to survive," which definitely has a very Hunger Games sound to it. The winning team will get $250,000.
According to hunger-games.net [9], when whispers of The Hunt first hit the fandom, there was a lot of debate about how ethical a show like this could truly be. We might be all fans, but we don’t really want to be tributes! Considering this sounds like forced poverty for viewer entertainment, one can understand how this concept can (and does) make a lot of people uncomfortable.
What do you think of this now that it’s here? Will you watch The Hunt? Let me know in the comments below!
SEE YOU NEXT WEEK, TRIBUTES!
