MySpace to Mine Members For FOX TV Ideas

We won’t fight the notion TV needs all the help it can get when it comes to program development so we’re holding out high hopes for The Storyteller Challenge, a TV pilot competition presented by MySpace, FOX and the Producers Guild of America. The competition, hosted on MySpaceTV (which currently makes no mention of the competition), will award two winning entrants $25,000 and a chance at an development deal with FOX. MySpace members will comment on the 5-7 minute entries, vote for their favorites, suggest plot lines and generally play television critic.

First it was Doritos commercials. Now it’s full blown TV shows. What’s next, movies? Oh wait, we had Project Greenlight and that didn’t go over so well.
