the things in my head that must escape

stoat's boyf Zac put the seed in my head:

Think about all the horrible, disgusting, awful things that people will do to get on TV.  Now think of all the seminal psych tests done decades ago that can no longer be done due to ethical concerns, such as the stranger electrocution test or the Stanford prison experiment.  What's the psychological establishment to do?  Why, get in league with the TV networks and stage their experiments as reality TV shows.  People will be so eager to try to reach the show that there'll be endless fodder for all these shows.  Best of all, they'll sign away their rights just so they can get on TV.  The psych people can then just buy the data off the TV networks.  No fuss, no muss.  Hell, this could spawn its own network!
