Opportunity Knocks
"Opportunity Knocks" is a new show that breaks the mold of typical game and reality shows. We will be showing up on America's doorstep and testing how well they know their family. Our mobile team will arrive at "Anywhere, America" in a semi-truck that is full of flat screen TVs, new furniture and big cash prizes that the family can win right there. We will take the action of a game show directly into our contestants' homes, setting up shop in a family's front lawn. The instant our host, JD Roth, knocks on the front door, the game will begin. Hollywood will invade a suburban neighborhood, and each week one lucky family will play the game of a lifetime in front of all their friends and neighbors. The host poses trivia questions to family members based directly on their lives, each other and articles found in and around their home. If they're able to prove they know their family inside and out, they'll win the prizes of their dreams. Executive producers for "Opportunity Knocks" are Ashton Kutcher, Jason Goldberg, Karey Burke, J.D. Roth and Todd A. Nelson. "Opportunity Knocks" is produced by Katalyst Films and 3 Ball Productions.

The Life on Mars remake looks like shit.
Also, OMG Rufus Sewell on a sci-fi show OMG. His American accent is impeccable (as it was in Dark City) but this clip brought the lolz. "19 dead babies and 19 graves that didn't dig themselves"? lmao.
I'll totally watch it.
michael cassidy! now that will be awesome.
Awesome... at least until it gets canceled.
lol great, we're going to be enthralled by this guy watching people
watch it be some amazing show, i remember years ago telling people "a show called desperate housewives? seriously, shit like that never lasts"
But without a British accent? D:
Also I'm not going to take ANY show seriously that has that chick from the craft in it... unless its Faruza Balk (SP?)
And Simon Baker is sexy...

Eleventh Hour! i'll watch just for Rufus Sewell. he's always evil, but for some reason i love him. i'm sure gonna miss his accent though...
ooooo that guy in Surviving the Filthy Rich is HOT! and PS did they make Joanna Garcia dye her hair so she would like she fits in even less in Palm Beach?
i really wanted to like dollhouse but i dont. :(
Rufus Sewell sans the accent...no thx
