Just when we started to truly believe that every reality TV idea had already been plundered, comes a Craigslist casting opportunity featuring one of the more fertile premises we've yet heard: It's a show devoted to capturing all the thrilling highs and the "Oops! But I'm almost positive you said it was the left knee that was giving you trouble" lows of a surgeon's first time.

Virgin-Surgeon Island provides virtually limitless potential for steamy hookups, dramatic conflict, and nail-biting invasive medical procedures, as a dozen telegenic med school grads find themselves sequestered on a remote, tropical locale. There they'll be forced to compete in a series of increasingly demanding tasks—-from the Body-Shot Suturing Challenge, to the 3M Angioplasty-Off and Celebrity Liver-Transplant Finale—using nothing but their textbooks and keen wits to guide them.

I'm up for attempting a liposuction with an exacto knife and a Dirt Devil. How much do they pay?
Tell me it is going to be in the Papa Doc Medical School in Haiti.
Please.
Pretty please.
*Baby Doc. Sorry. Mixed up my '80's references for a second...
"You said saline BREAST implants? I used crackers!"
Cue wacky music.
It seems rather tame fare considering that Typically-Arrogant-Surgeon-Who-Promises-to-Create-a-New-Bladder-for-You-Using-a-Piece-of-Your-Intestines and Typically-Arrogant-Surgeon-Who-Insists-Heart-Surgery-Is-Appropriate-for-an-EIghty-Five-Year-Old-Woman-with-Terminal-Pancreatic-Cancer can be seen Monday through Friday at any American hospital.
i thought it was just a nooner to look for on craigs. doctors, too!!
Let's douche, I mean spice it up a little by by miniaturizing Jessica Alba and Michelle Rodriquez and putting them in a microscopic atomic submarine. And, let's do a two-parter where the submarine gets injected into the vice president (William Macy) who has a heart incident right after a nuclear bomber piloted by Will Smith takes off to bomb Tehran. And Michelle Rodriguez gets to say on the radio "are you seriously telling me that you've never done this procedure before?" Now that's a reality show!
i. will. never. go. to. the. hospital. again.
(not that i make a habit of it as is, and this rule may also be suspended if there is the prospect of really good drugs.)
The Real Question:
Is that island in-network or out-network? Because I CANNOT afford the out-of-network copay!
They have as much chance of finding first-time surgery volunteers in LA as they would in finding actual virgins!!!!!
@Nunaurbiz: Surely they could import the virgins, perhaps in a sealed shipping container to keep them fresh? Then you just put the shipping container into a giant fridge, and take out a virgin if, and when, you need one. You can get really cheap virgins from China, I hear. After that, India seems to be your best bet. Make sure to wash them first after you take them out, just to get the packing materials and tears off them before using.
@NoWireHangers: Comedy gold, that!
I have to imagine with sky-rocketing malpractice insurance premiums that no doctor in his/her right mind would commit to doing any surgery that would be televised.
I also would like to think the ad was a mis-print and that they were actually looking for a STURGEON to perform surgery. Sit down, shut up, and pass the caviar!
