TREATMENT
(Synopsis, Outline):
(Themes: Reality-based,
fantasy fulfillment, comedy)
Three teams of 4 are
chosen-consisting of men 33 and older from all walks of life. The business man
type, the adult stoner, the straight and narrow geek, and the senior citizen
are just a few of the character types chosen to depict the various adult males
in the world.
Teams are placed together at
random as they descend upon the University of Virginia, ranked the number one
party school in America by Playboy magazine. The teams are given modest (beat
up) fraternity houses just off of campus to live in for the semester. Where
camera’s will follow their everyday lives and interactions. One actual college
student and fraternity member will serve as their “guide” and Head line member,
the men will be at his every beck and call, His every whim is their command.
Drop and give me 20, they must oblige, drop trough, they do so.
They are forced to hold down
a full time school schedule, their grades will go towards a final point system
for the week. At the end of every week the three teams participate in a Hazing
exercise, say a marshmallow-in- the-butt-cheeks race, or beer chug challenge
with Old English (ranked the world’s worst beer), the naked obstacle course,
and even the guess-what-I-put in this mixed drink challenge.
The weekly challenge winners
gain bonuses for their weekly parties. Kegs, famous D J’s and Celebrity Hosts
are the benefits given to the challenge winners to allow them the greatest
parties possible. Whatever team can raise the most money from their parties
(All proceeds go to charity of course) by the end of the semester will win the
grand prize: A mid-life crisis Hot rod, $250,000, and four free semesters of
funding for the person of their choosing.
